There will be a time after enough detachment that you'll be able to have the occasional contact with her and it won't kill you or mess with your head.
It reminds me of that scene in 40 Days & 40 Nights where Josh Hartnett sees his ex and she asks him if he never thinks about her anymore and he says "Let me put it this way: I have thought about you - about us - a lot, but tonight, when you came in, was the first time I didn't get all [censored] up about it."
I'm excited for that day, too. Though I think yesterday I did pretty well. I attribute that to both No Contact and cliched time.

I keep myself busy -- insanely so at times -- and when I finally get home I still miss not having someone to talk to.
That's probably it. You miss the familiarity of having someone there all the time to talk to/companionship. It's normal. It's a huge loss w/ a D. Quite a life adjustment. It truly is like a death.
