I guess if it was that long I might miss my parents but I'm not sure. I've never gone that long without seeing them. I did a little over 4 months, then lived with them a few weeks, then didn't see them for another 5 months or so.
I didn't really miss them that much though. We have a weird relationship anyway these days.
That said going to be living an hour and a half drive away for a few years in the winter at least, so I'll probably see them every few weeks or so.
I do feel bad that I don't see my sister very often though. And she's got 2 boys and another kid on the way. I definitely don't want to be a total stranger where they only hear about me from time to time, but it's tough to actually get there to visit.
You hit that point I think a few years after high school where you want to see people but never make it happen. There's just too much going on, and your lives are going in separate directions.
I've been trying to see one of my friends from HS down near NYC all summer since I've been back in the northeast. Haven't made it happen yet.
I hate shit like that.
We need teleporters or something.
