Today, my separation anxiety got so intense, I found myself smelling my boyfriend's pillow. FML

Amazing what you find when you're reading the random FMLs... OP here. Let me explain - at the time this was posted, I was pregnant and suffering from terrible morning sickness. Believe it or not, that worked a treat! And helped me cheer up as well... To everyone who said their partner is/was in the service, I hope they come home safe and sound. I respect both you and your partners. God bless.

thats nothinn .... my separation anxiety is so bad that i smell the bear my gf gave me & sleep in the spot she lays in when shes over

This is totally normal. Smell is the sense with the strongest ties to memory-- smelling their clothes makes us feel closer to them than looking at a picture ever could.

I use one of my girlfriend's old t-shirts as a pillow case, and she uses one of my pillows :)

This is sooooo sweet! It actually brought a tear to my eye!

Uh I don't find this strange at all. When my husband is deployed (like now), I sleep in his shirts that he left for me and on his pillow because it smells like him and it's comforting.

Awh, that is super sweet. I have recently found out that I'm expecting too, so I think I know where it comes from. :) I hope your man comes home safe. I look up to people like yourself who can let their man go like that.

That's fairly common. Hopefully it didn't stink & it's kinda weird if you start humping it.
