Being a hopeless romantic at heart, I often think about different aspects of relationships. I consider myself one of the rare few who has found the one person she/he was meant to spend forever with. But I wonder about those couples who don't have that deep soul mate bond. How close are they? Does your significant other really miss you when you're away, or are they fairly independent from you? For true love to be there, I believe that you need to miss the other person in order for your love to grow stronger.
So, here's my question..... What is your significant other thinking when you're apart? Is he/she too caught up in their own life to care, or does the separation drive them even further into your arms?
