How to feel involved again?
I'm going to try to make this as short as possible, but you'll probably need a little background to understand.
I met my SO in October 2014. We live two hours apart only because we are both in college, but we are from the same hometown. We spent Oct and Nov just casually talking and getting to know each other. It wasn't until around Dec and Jan that we really declared a relationship and starting taking it seriously. During the summer we were able to spend a lot of time together since we live in the same area when school is out. After spending the whole summer together and being so involved in each other's lives, I feel so uninvolved now. We are both back at school so we are two hours apart again. Now I feel like we are living two completely separate lives (which we technically are) but it makes me so sad that we don't get to enjoy life together like we used to.
I guess my question is how do I get over being apart and deal with the fact that we don't get to be together as much? And how can I feel more involved in his life besides texts and phone calls?
And I realize this may seem so small and unimportant to some of you. I do understand that there are couples going through deployment right now and much tougher situations, but I'm just looking for some suggestions, not a pity party.
