    Default Goodbyes

    So after a couple of months being back at home I return to Lancaster for my final year at University.

    Saying goodbye to my parents and boyfriend is always sad

    How are you with goodbyes?

    With my parents I say goodbye and usually feel a bit sad, I sometimes cry when i see Smeep leave on the train!

    Do you cry like a baby? Or stay strong and brave?!
    If I turn my back I'm defenceless, and to go blindly seems senseless.

    Funnily enough, I'm gonna be leaving home in literally a week to live in student accommodation. It'll be sad saying goodbye to my cat I'll be popping home every few weeks, but I plan to get a job whilst I'm there so It's going to be my permanent home. My boyfriend I won't be rid of, infact he's gonna be staying with me sometimes as it's actually closer to where he lives.

    I don't say "goodbye", because that implies you may never see them again. I usually leave with a "see you later" for that reason, since I know I will see them again at some point in the future.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    My sentiments exactly. Never said a final goodbye to anyone before.

    I'm usually fine with not seeing people for long periods of time.

    Except for last fall, when BJ went on tour so I didn't see him for two months. I was an absolute smurfing mess. People at the airport were comforting me. xD

    There's nothing good about saying bye.

    I always say "Be safe" rather than "Goodbye", but if it's ppl really close to me and I'm not going to see them for a while I get really teary no matter how hard I try not to show it, but I never really cry. It's sad when you have to leave someone and v.v. for a long time 'cause you know you're going to miss them so much; they're not going to be as close/around the same way anymore and you never know when and if you'll ever see them again. And it gets a bit difficult to actually realise that on the day you/they are leaving.
    However! You have to be brave when you/they leave to help them be brave as well! You'll hopefully see them again soon so if you stay positive it'll be alright. :kaoplain:

    I've only rarely been moved by emotion at goodbyes. I'm strong I guess. I get maybe a little moved if I'm never going to see that person again but when it's someone I know I'll see my reaction is, I will call, video call and visit them or they can visit me and that'll do for me. I do miss people when they're not around but I don't get teary eyed or emotional over it.

    I don't think of them as goodbyes; I think of them as "See you Laters!'

    The few people I truly care about are a great distance from me, so I plan on saying hello first.

    Before I moved in with my boyfriend I only got to see him for two visits because we lived in different parts of the country. Whenever we had to go back to normal life I'd cry for a week, especially the second time because I knew it'd be six months or longer before I saw him again. I think some people thought I was on my way to/from a funeral because I happened to be in a lot of black that day and I couldn't stop crying
