about missing someone

I have never thought that I would miss someone.
When i was a ten-year-old boy , my father had to work at a company which was thousand miles away from my hometown. He could be home for only ten days a year. At first , I missed him so much expecially when i felt helpless. I wanted him to be there when i need him. Finally, I realized that I have to get used to the situation.
I have a big family and I am the youngest one. As the time past by, some of my family members found their career and decided to leave home to pursue their own life. It was almost every year that I would say goodbye to someone from my family before I entered the university . When I was about to board the train goingt to my college , I found out that I had no one to say goodbye to except my mother and my grandparents.


So for me, being apart means nothing.  I found out that I never missed someone too much. Once I have tried to don't get in touch with my friends ,my family or someone else in 15 days, just then I have felt nothing.


I don't know why I wrote about this topic.  Maybe it was during dinner time, there was a guy who told us how he missed his family so much.

that's all. Do you think I am selfish?

No,don‘t regard yourself as selfish.Dfferent people grow up in different enviroment.You just lived in a family that has too much 'goodbye'.But no touch with anyone for 15 days sounds terrible.At least you should call your mom or dad .Maybe you didn't have any feeling after that 15days,but how did those people who had been missing you ? I think you just need more love and care from you family and more communication with your family.

No, you are not selfish! It's just becasue, in your life, espically the youth peroid, there are so many people leave you one by one. So you have accustomed to the feeling of being alone. And I find how touching is your note here, it likes some scenes used to be faced of in my living...

that's so sad :( . And NO you are not selfish. that happends, the cause why you don't feel anything when you are apart from your family it's just because you are always with them, and in the deep of your heart you believe that you will not leave them. But If you had new friends, and If you tried to be familiar with them, the day when you will be away from them you will miss them, you will miss the funny jokes and reactions that they used to say and do. Or you can get a girlfriend, and try to use your feelings of " Missing " ;) That's what I think!! :)
