Is this how my parents feel?
I left home a little over half a year ago. I remember the day I left so well. My mate was driving all my crap to my uni and I had to fight the tears while I was waving goodbye to my mum and Dad
I didn't get on with my parents all that well, usually going to my room and sitting in there for hours. Now when I go home, I spend all day sitting in the living room with them
In many ways, leaving home has made up far closer.
I couldn't wait to leave home, until I actually got around to it. I miss the place so damn much now! Home is a grim rainy village in north wales, in a cold house with next to no transport for the majority of the day. But thats my home, and I cant wait to go back in summer!
Its tough leaving home, for everyone involved. I knew my mum and dad were in buts, which wasn't helped by my tearful 'I WANT TO COME HOME's down the phone every night for a week.
I dont think I'll stop missing that place and the old gimmers for a good few years though.
