>>82179437 (OP)Everything can be perfect in every way but a single thing missing can override the rest. A 'happiness' only she can provide, but it's more than a provision or something that could be replicated in some other way. It's her. Who she is.
So when I'm asked how I am, I find it very difficult to answer. Do I talk about all the good without acknowledgment of that space that I physically see and internally feel where she is missing that hurts?
I dislike dishonesty. I prefer not to be dishonest and say something like I'm fine. It'd be nice to not have to think or talk about this ever again and just live in the good. Once she is home things will change and I can just have fun. I look forward to that
