Question 2: Aiham


Do you miss her?


Oh absolutely. But I—I miss everybody in Australia it's a—I haven't been there since .. December, last year. It's almost a month now. I mean a year, sorry. Almost a year now, so um .. yeah I miss a lot of people there, but she's definitely one—one of the top on the list.


How do you feel when you miss her?


um, look I lived away from home for 3 years. I've learned to live with it—you know accept it as a hole inside you that will never ever be filled—so, you just learn to live with it, but you know the way to heal it is to keep in touch […] you wanna be with that certain person, but … distance, miles and miles separate you both and there's nothing you can do about it. Um, if I had the choice to be with that person, I would, right now, just for the sheer enjoyment of it because we enjoy each other's company—nothing romantic about it, like we never dated or anything, but we enjoyed each other's company so .. . Um, it definitely hurts, yeah I'll tell you that. There is pain involved. But like I said, you just learn to live with that pain. […] There's no way of escaping it, there's no way of treating it—you might feel better about it for a day or two, maybe a month, but it's gonna come back to get you in the end and there's nothing you can do about it. You just gotta .. live with it.


Can you describe this to me? What's like?


Ummm … if you're a doctor .. I would say that .. you wanna be with that certain person, but … distance, miles and miles separate you both and there's nothing you can do about it. Um, if I had the choice to be with that person, I would, right now, just for the sheer enjoyment of it because we enjoy each other's company—nothing romantic about it, like we never dated or anything, but we enjoyed each other's company so .. . Um, it definitely hurts, yeah I'll tell you that. There is pain involved. But like I said, you just learn to live with that pain.


How do you live with it?


You know, same pr—same way as if someone breaks their leg, you know? Next day they're not just gonna stop living. You just_ learn to continue to walk with crutches. you know? You continue to live with missing someone. There's nothing that .. you can do to take that completely away, it will always be .. in there.
