DH leaves on Saturday for a week on work related training, he's flying there so he will be away from me & the kids entirely. We've never been apart, not even for a night. I wonder how this will all play out.

We've been apart as long as a week a few times. It's kind of nice having a break to be honest. I've been away on business so many times, and when Maddie was born I took her to see my parents in Fl for a week before I went back to work.

It'll be fine. I think it's healthy for a relationship to spend some positive time apart now and then.

when we were dating we had a long distance relationship for 6 months, he was in CA and I was here in PA, it sucked! but we weren't married just dating!

since we have been married the longest we have been away from each other is I think 2 nights? maybe 3 once I can't remember exactly. we usually do everything together but prekids I would do girls weekends now and then (haven't had one in ages though!) and now usually once or twice a year I will go to my parents for a few days without him just for a visit me and Sydney. I like having the time with my parents and sister to reconnect a little bit. time apart isn't always a bad thing! good luck and try to enjoy your time as much as possible anyway!

We've been apart for a couple days when we were moving from one town to another(only about 1-1 1/2 hrs drive apart tho so not a huge distance).

He had to stay in town for work and I had to finish packing up and allow the boys to sleep in beds til everything was moved into the new place.

Totally sucked but went quickly.

Mine is former military, so yeah, we have been apart for months at a time. He has been over seas three times not to mention training here and there. Since he left the Army we have been apart when he goes back home to visit, a few times when I was unable to go. I'm pretty independant, or maybe just tolerant of it.

A few years ago I left dh for 10 days while I went to Holland. He missed me a lot, I missed him a little.

I went on vacation for a month but was with family and then another year he went on vacation for 3 weeks also with family, that is the same family, we always make it with the same family we just end up going at different times because of work. We are pretty use to it, but we both miss each other eqaully. And when we come back together after a long time apart. That night is a whole load of fun
