Is this normal or unhealthy, to feel uneasy about us being apart for a week?

Ok, this is a silly question...

My boyfriend may go on a trip to the beach for a week. We've been together for a year and a half. However, we've never been apart because one of us had to travel.

This is my first boyfriend and I don't know why I feel uneasy and sad about it. I know missing someone is normal, but this isn't just because I'll miss him, I just feel uneasy about it. How selfish... I don't know.

Plus, all the beach babes he'll see... I'm no babe myself, but that's not the point.

It's just I don't know what it'll be to be a week without spending time with him. Am I obsessed with him? Is this normal or unhealthy?

How can I know if this is a normal healthy feeling or not?

Honey, this is totally normal! You should have seen the state I was in, when my long term boyfriend told me he was going to France for a week!

It's natural to be worried about him seeing other women on the beach, but he's with you for the reason that he loves you. It doesn't matter what you look like, but even if it did, I'm sure he thinks your beautiful. Everyone looks down on themselves, and up at other people, but try not to. He loves you.

I'll be honest with you. The week will seem to go on for ages, and you will miss him with all of your heart. But absence makes the heart grow fonder, or so they say. It could be healthy for your relationship, to give yourselves some space, and realise how much you love each other's company.

It's a healthy feeling, I can guarentee, and totally natural. Just try to keep your faith in him, and trust him, because there's nothing more you can do. Just accept it's one of those things.

If he goes, and you need someone to talk to or worry to or moan to, I'm here ok :] I've been through the same thing, so feel free to message me any time :] Good luck.
