When I was young & single I wouldn't have understood it at all. I regularly didn't see / communicate with family for 6+ months at a time
.
Now that I have a wife & kids, not going to lie, I would absolutely bawl like a li'l bitch
. Even without kids tbh. I'm soft as ****. I miss my wife if one of us is away for more than 24 hours. Heh.
