I miss my wife so much

As they say absence makes the heart grow fonder. You sound like your heart has really grown fonder for your wife. How much longer will she be gone? My husband has only been away from me for maybe the most 4 days. It was rather lonely without him. Just like you , we would talk every day, of course it is not the same as being there with each other. Plan something really special for her when she gets back. Maybe you and the kids, can cook her a special meal. Hopefully she will back with you soon.

I know the feeling. As you know my husband is in Arizona, and I'm in Canada. We talk to eachother on the phone many times a day, but we miss eachother so muh. We've only been married about 10 months, and quite a bit of our relatioship has been long distance, but when we are apart, we miss eachother so much!!!! We talk on the phone twice a day (in the morning and at night) and we are in constant communication on our computers. I wrote about this on MyLot the other day. http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1598263.aspx

I feel so sorry for you. not only are you missing your wife, you must be very worried about her safety too, because of the situation in your country. I miss my husband everytime he has to go to another city on office work. Usually every month he is not at home for 10 to 15 days and those days are absolute misery for me. Like you, I try to make up to our son (he is very attached to his Dad). Do let us know when she returns.

my husband and i ususally texted each other, chat with her with webcam, it will ease your longingnes, i'm sure when she comes home you will have to lock the house and tell the kids to play all day because mom and dad will stay at your room for days

I have been in that situation when my wife had to leave for two months leaving me with my two sons one of which was just 2 years old. We managed fine and it was she who missed us sorely and she cried when we talked on the phone. I told her it was her choice and she had to do a good job so she can go back home as soon as her training was over.

Not to make light of your situation but maybe if you look at it from a different angle it will help. Miss my husband as well, but unlike you I do not get to talk to him every dy, or look forward to his return, as he passed away coming up on 7 years ago. Not that it makes your seperation easier but maybe if you look at it from a posative piint of view it will make it more tolerable. Your wife is going to come home soon, and you will be together again. May your seperation be a short one

I agree with sudalunts, being away is definitely tough, but when you see your wife again your love for her will even be stronger than it was before (hard to believe, I'm sure)! Stick in there, do your best to respect her while she is away, and everything will work out fine. Congratulations on being so in love alkurishy. ;)

its very nice to know taht you love her so much. when she will be coming back? hope at that time you can really get good time. there are hgardshiops in life at times. we have to live with it.

May I suggest that you start writing each other daily letters telling your feelings. They are tangible and you can always save them. And when things get rough, as you know they will, you can re-read them and remember why you loved each other. A letter is nicer then a phone call. In the meantime start planning a special activity that you will do when she comes home, by then you will be an expert cook, cook something special and have a wonderful evening with her.

I have been married for fourteen years and we have never been away from each other more than a night or two at one time. If we ever were i don't know how i would handle it.

Hi,alkurishy,i understand your feeling. Pls patient , your wife may come back soon. Take care of yourself and your kids.

Hi alkurishy, Is is nice to hear how a man love his wife so much ansd miss, not many men in our country will voice their feelings but you so loving to your and the same with your who loves very much. Don't worry too much she maybe back very soon. My husband and myself only been away from each other for 3 days that all. Tamara.

I wish I had a good answer for you, but I don't. I am an American, my wife is Canadian. 11 days after we were we married, my wife had to return to her country because of our immigration laws. She came back several months later, but could only stay 6 months. She's bee gone almost two months now. It doesn't get easier, it gets more painful. I don't have the additional worries that you do, I only have the loneliness that I know you are experiencing right now. You, your children, and your wife are now constantly in my thoughts and prayers because I am going through exactly what you are.

Awwww I am very sorry to hear this. I know how it feels to be a million miles away from the person you love. It's not easy. I just keep thinking to myself that one day we will be together and its going to have to take everything to seperate us!

That's normal, I'm sure you will feel the miss so much whe your partner is not around. And you feel more appreciate when the partner is back. I'm staying with my boy friend currently, when I went home, my boy friend will miss me a lot, same goes to me, when my boy friend home, I will miss him a lot. After few days missing, we will much more aprreciate ourselves. Sometimes a separation will make a couple relation closer.

first of all i think it is absolutely adorable and refreshing that you feel so loving towards your wife. it is so nice to hear. i am not in a very happy marriage and we have grown apart over the years due to various reasons but we stay together for our son and for stability for all of us. hopefully your beloved wife will be home with you and your children soon and you will not have to yearn for her because she will be right there loving you back like you love her. have faith. she will be back before you know it. they say that absence makes the heart grow fonder. my best to you and your children.

Hello Aww, I am so sorry you are missing your wife , and talking on the phone sometimes does not ease the longing . When you see one another again it will be all that much sweeter , and will bring you even closer if you can picture that . You could always write to her and when she returns have her read the letters . Just try to stay in touch as much as possible . My partner and me have been together for 8 years and have only been away from one another for a few days , and that was hard enough . When we saw one another again it was pure bliss . I wrote him letters on how i missed him and that made it sweeter . Also , I left him letters to read while i was gone . He can be a big baby , but he is mine

So this is the first time you got separated and it's a month now?That must be very awful for you and your wife.This kind of separation happened to us one year after the marriage.He has to work abroad and left me and our baby.I would suggest what i did during the separation with my husband.Take care of your kids,be the mother and father for the meantime.Until when she'll be in Iraq?Count each passing days backwards,hope you get my point .......sometimes it works.As you said she has to attend to some urgent/family reason.For me it might be helpful if you try not to get touchy when you call her-as this may make her worry and loose concentration on why she's in Iraq for.I mean she has to concentrate and finish what she's there for ASAP so she can join you and your kids the soonest possible.Keep yourself busy,it's been a month let's pray things work out right there.Good luck!
