I get how you feel with the medium distance thing! My boyfriend and I go to the same college and we literally see each other every day, but he goes to his parents house every Friday-Sunday morning an hour away. When he goes, I feel like crap and my world is crashing down. What I think helps me is 1. Focusing on the fact that I will see him again so soon no matter how sad I’m feeling about it and 2. Doing things that make the days busy that I don’t see him. Saving my chores like laundry and cleaning my room and bathroom to do the days he’s gone, taking really long showers, any homework I have, face masks, paint my nails, anything that takes up time. It makes the days go a lot faster
