Whatever you have to do to make the seperation not seem like physical seperation. Your bodies will be seperate but not your minds etc...meaning the communication and bonding can be all there minus the physical.

It will make you stronger in the long run for sure, and if it doesnt and it happens to be the end of you, just remember it wasnt the seperation that put the nail in the coffin, although it could have been a factor, it was NOT the reason for your demise.

If you have any questions on tips or tricks to help make it not such a crappy situation let me know, I like to think i am an expert in this subject matter.

Or "Jodie" will get your girl. You military types know all about "Jodie" right?
