Tater has been, in his own words, a yo-yo for the past month-ish. It started with the big packet of papers he had to fill out, which took two weeks. One week to get his head back together. After that, he had a good week where he was calm again; enjoying life, me, and his projects. He got back into the habit of writing everyday and we had some face time. Then the calls (about the forms he had mailed back) started. He detests phone calls, and they've been at him at least three times a day, everyday, for a week and a half - this despite the fact that on the form he requested that all communication be done through mail and why. So, once he starts to settle down and catch his breath, the phone rings again (he never answers) and pulls him back under. He purposely missed an appointment date they assigned him for last week and he's now hoping that they'll send a letter and stop calling.
That's just some background. Oh, and he has still been writing every two or three days when he's on an upswing.
I do feel badly for him and am doing my best to be cheerful and distracting for him. It works to an extent. I really hope he can find some peace soon.:(
Anyway, I'm not sad, depressed, angry, or feeling abandoned. I am, however, getting restless. I miss my buddy. I want to talk to him because he gives me a high and without it I get antsy and a bit lonely - he's my BFF!:hug: I miss his humor. His smile. His voice. His sarcasm and wit.:rolleyes: His stories. I miss the rare little twitch in his right cheek. I miss the way he playfully "corrects" my pronunciation and the funny voices he does. I miss hearing him complain about..... everything! LOL :p
He doesn't know I'm feeling this way. Wouldn't do anyone any good to bring him down further. So, in the meantime I've been keeping myself busy by privately planning various vacations for us.:playful: I'll put a bug in his ear when he's feeling better and see if I can't get something in the works - but that is another post for another time - fingers crossed that one goes down smoothly when the time comes.:bag:
Since I can't talk to Tater as much as I want right now, I thought the next best thing would be to talk about him.
What do you miss about your friend/significant other when they're feeling low and aren't especially communicative? Do you plan fantasy vacations for the two of you or have conversations with them in your head? I know him so well, I feel like I know what he'd say in reply to a certain situation, so it isn't difficult to fill in the blanks.:D
