For me, its been 17 months now :eek:. My bf (the Rhino in the name lol) and I are long distance; for various reasons (finances and a major car accident last Summer), we haven’t been able to get together ☹ (but still spend an inordinate amount of time of the phone and computer 😃 )… I miss him horribly ☹ .

He is the love of my life and I so want him here - ok yes to shag his brains out til he has to go home in a splint :D, but also just to have him here ya know?

Anyways, how long has it been for you? Why? And how do you cope?

(All these oral sex threads are making me think this way !!!):eek: 😃

About 34 hours since the sex ended and, unfoutunatly for her, about 34 hours and 3 minutes since it started.

it’s been since… january?  
mid january.

I’m a long distance person too… how I deal with it?  
it’s all i’ve really known! My previous partner was also interstate, as was the one before that.

It’s hard… lots of phone sex, cybersex, dirty weekends, and just plain talking.

Also, making up for lost time when we do see each other.

I’m not sure I understand what the OP is getting at. Perhaps if she would convey her emotions through some form of pictograph, I could better comprehend her meaning.

A couple days, I guess.

I probably would have already had sex today, but the kid won’t go to sleep. Ah, the joy of parenthood . . .

I wonder if Grandma wants to see the little bundle of joy today . . . ?
