I find myself in a similar situation. My girlfriend has been back in Poland for 3 weeks now. Her not being there when I wake up is very hard to cope with! We talk on the phone a few times a week, but we don't communicate too well on the phone.

e-mailing, texting, calling, writing, sending packages and keep that person next to you in your heart
sounds like sensible advice.

I am going to stay with him for Christmas etc,
I plan to move to Poland, so perhaps my situation is slightly different. Until that time I am in a long distance relationship and have to try to make the most of it.
