My fiance was gone for 3 months on business. It helped me to not think about missing him. I looked at it as a slice of freedom before marriage. I cleaned his house (it needed it), painted a room, and put my touches on the bedroom. Instead of worrying about him and missing him, I focused on WHEN he came home.

I know what you are going through. My hubby is in the military and ends up going on some really long deployments, sometimes 6 months or longer. Thankfully though, I have our kids to keep me sane (ish)
What I also do is, I keep cleaning, and I Count down the days til he comes home. Mark it on a calendar and everything. Cleaning helps too. if you do one room a day, then you have at least that many days to get it done. :) Plus, going out every now and then is fun as well. I may have kids, which is a good excuse, but go to the Zoo one day. it is a relaxing walk, take your time, don't rush, relax, and have lunch there too. Read all the signs, all that stuff. Not only will it be fun, it will help to take your mind off missing him so much, if even for a couple hours. You could also go to a museum or art gallery. Anything like that, if you do one a week will give you something to look forward to each week, and then time will seem to fly til he comes home. Just take it a week at a time, and you will be fine.

I wish you luck, because I'm going through the same thing right now. My gf/future fiancee won't be back until the end of the month and I miss her dearly. I try to keep myself busy by looking at vacation stuff (were going somewhere in February) and mess around with looking at venues and stuff like that for our wedding.

Take a class in underwater basket weaving or other thing that interests you... keep busy and use the time to explore yourself exclusive from him... When you are centered and completely comfortable with yourself you can bring more to a relationship, and sometimes a little recentering time is just the ticket to keeping a relationship strong..

Get out of school and settled then look for somebody which would be stable to you, this is the actual challenge. To many use and abuse women

When my husband is deployed, I do A LOT of scrapbooking and cleaning. Find something that you really love to do and just throw yourself into it. Scrapbooking was good for me because I could make scrapbooks about my husband and me to share with him when he returned. And a little excessive cleaning never hurt anyone ;)

i would take my partner's away time as a little quality time for my self. Spend more time with my family, have dinner with my little sister, going out more with my friends, watch that silly sitcom that he hates, trying that interior DIY book, looking for new restaurants and cafe to go there when we are together again.
