Wow Tom, you just beat me to it!
Tambear, none of us want to be without our S's BUT we are whether physically and/or emotionally right now. In fact, they may never return. In order for someone to "complete" our world they must be some kind of collectible..." I just need one more for the whole set". I know that is not what you mean BUT your emotional belief puts alot of pressure on the person who is expected to "complete" your world, so again, you may be pushing H away with this kind of ideal. A loved one can be a wonderful part of our world but in no way can they ever complete it or be that final piece to a puzzle. They are just human beings, like you and I, with amazing attributes and really crappy ones! If your H doesn't come back, you will carry on and your life will be as wonderful as you allow it to be. Our hurt right now is not our life, just a part of it.
