No contact with OH for 2 weeks.. - Advice

FriendlyGoat · 04-11-2009, 17:54

My partner has just gone away for 2 weeks. She won't have a phone or access to the internet, so there will be no contact whatsoever.

Anyone been in a similar situation? Any suggestions on coping alone without her?

chocoholic100 · 04-11-2009, 17:57

where has she gone, the north pole the middle of the desert or outer space?

how does someone not have access to a phone or internet in this day and age?

2 weeks? No contact? Kick her to the kerb and get yourself a bit on the side. I can't imagine anywhere that you couldn't have any contact with a person, but failing that 2 weeks will soon pass and there are many ways to 'entertain' yourself if you get bored

You'll get through it

Try ticking off the days till she returns, write her a letter that you can give her when she returns. Find ways to keep yourself busy, not what the previous poster suggested

Just keep busy and you'll find the time will fly by and you'll soon be reunited

Any chance you could post and say where she's gone?

I'd like to try and book my missus into the same place.

Are you taking the p*ss? Where can she possibly be where she can't phone you?

To be quite honest, there are plenty of places where it would be 'difficult' or a lot of hassle to make a call. Various places in the Middle East (ie. Iraq) and Middle Africa (ie. Congo, Kenya, Uganda, Sudan, Ethiopia) being a few.

You can even get 'holidays' (more like culture trips) to North Korea now, and you are banned from sending/receiving any international communication there.

I agree, there are all sorts of places and holidays where contact wouldn't be feasible. What if she was wild camping in the middle of nowhere? Or on safari? Or on retreat in a monastery?

Exactly; the only method of communication there would be satellite phone (and they aren't exactly carried as standard!)

Is it the same girl that features in all of these?

Yes it is the same person who features in all of those three threads. We are now engaged. Why?

Surely, if you're planning on spending the rest of your life with her, 2 weeks apart will hardly matter?

What can I say? I need contact with the person I love.

04-11-2009, 19:49

After reading your other threads am I right in thinking you may have jealousy issues OP?

babinaba · 04-11-2009, 19:50

you don't NEED contact with her, you WANT contact with her - what's the worst that's going to happen if you don't speak to her or get an email from her? nothing...go out, get a hobby, go to the gym, read a book, do cross stitch. It's not the end of the world. Take it from me - my husband was in Kosovo and Iraq and it's a hell of a lot worse not know IF they're going to call or come home again so unless you are in the same position, unfortunately I have no sympathy - sorry

chattamanuk · 04-11-2009, 19:51

Can you tell us where she is going where she won't have access to the phone or internet? Or is she a spy?

Well it doesn't sound the most stable relationship in the world, largely because you seem very insecure and jealous, maybe she just wants a breather from that? you do seem a tad overbearing.....

abarthman · 04-11-2009, 20:02

Has she been jailed for a fortnight or is she just way for a fortnight's holiday with her mate(s)?

Where is she going that prevents her from communicating with you for a fortnight? Are you sure that she actually wants to contact you?

Pornography, alcohol, mind-altering substances, loose women, etc. Use your imagination.

You might as well go mad, because she will!

Camino · 04-11-2009, 20:05

It will do you both good to be apart

Well, assuming that you don't have issues about whether she is copping off with someone else and you are just are missing her ..........

I would take the opportunity to do all the stuff you haven't been able to do while she has been around .......... paint your room - study more - read the books you haven't had time for - watch the DVDs - listen to music - meet up with your mates for a drink and a chat - visit your mum and dad and your grandparents - do some overtime and earn some extra cash - clean the bathrooom - go swimming - volunteer for something for a couple of hours - go and ask your elderly/disabled neighbour if you can do any shopping for him/her - go and ask your young and nubile neighbour if a bj is out of the question - write your christmas cards early - learn a new word and use it in a legible sentence every day ...................... need I go on ?

So where is she going that has no phone or internet access? Curiosity is killing me! Rehab? Mars? The North Pole?

grilli · 04-11-2009, 20:11

did she pack a load of condoms when she went?

My friend went trekking along the great wall of China but still managed to email us all about what she was up to.

But anyway you'll be alright.
