I MISS MY MAN!!!!!

You know...I was single for a long time, and I lived in an apartment alone for several years before J and I married. I don't understand why it bother me so much when he's gone. I mean, yeah there's the obvious...I love him so much that I hate to be away from him, but while I didn't mind living alone when I was single, I HATE living alone now.

J told me tonight that he misses me a lot. He said that when he's in meetings like the ones he's in this week it makes him miss me that much more because they're long and stressful. I asked him why, and he said he likes coming home to me after a long stressful day. Awwwww.

Now, anyone who knew J before we got married knows that he is the kind of guy that likes to be by himself. He is an independent introvert so being alone is just fine with him. And when he's stressed he doesn't like to be around anyone. He wanted to be by himself so he can decompress. So to me, it sounds weird that he misses me so much. I don't know why, but it does.

But see, I'm the exact opposite...I'm the one who always wants to be around people. I don't like to be by myself unless I'm upset. Being around friends and family after a stressful day helps me relax and unwind. So it's only natural that I would miss J like crazy when he's gone. But when he tells me how much he misses me it makes me miss him that much more. I just miss my man, and I want him home...it's gonna be a long week folks!

You know Carlton...he LOVES to be around people, but when he is tired or stressed, he wants to be alone too,I guess that is a man thing. I am so sorry you miss him so much, but I know it makes us appreciate them that much more when they return and vice versa! He says he misses you because he really does. We are their anchors, although sometimes we might feel like that wind that keeps trying to push them away.
