How do you console someone who is away ? I am just too worried .
Fiance is in Waziristan since May . He did come twice for Eid .
I got done with my graduation in May and moved to another city . I was miserable for a few months . New city , no friends , no studies, him being away .He calls often from land line which also is dead most of the times . However We have never been in a same city . It has always been a long distance relationship but at least there is phone , skype , texting or he comes to see me often . But ever since he has been deployed in Waziristan , It has been too much for both of us . There is no other mode of communication except for the land line which is hardly accessible . It has been difficult for both of us . His work station is not also in the main town , but somewhere in the outskirts where there isn’t much to do . All he has to do is stay at his check post and kill time . Thanks to god that the operation situation is under control . The threats are obviously there , but tensions have eased a bit .

I have been trying hard to keep myself occupied all the time to keep my sanity . But obviously I was doing better than him because at least I do have people around me . I still have a life here . On the other hand , He already is emotional while I am not that emotional.
Recently I got admission in another program in my dream university and I’ll be moving again to another city and I am very much happy about it .
Since few weeks he has been very very upset . I don’t know what is it and I can’t understand how to comfort him . He has not even called since a few days . I know he must be feeling lonely , It is’nt easy living there all alone , away from everyone .
But I am assuming can it be the reason that he might be feeling that I have learned to live without him , which is making him upset . As I told him that I was happy about starting my studies again .

Whatever the reasons are , I just feel help less . I want him to stay happy and motivated . I can’t see him being so down and hopeless . What can I do to make him feel good ?

I know it’s old school, but are can you write letters to each other? send parcels??
