DP is away overnight tonight, works Xmas do and then back tomorrow. Leaves again Sunday morning for two weeks. This is not a regular occurrence, we haven't been apart much in the 6 years we have been together except when either of us have been in hospital.
I have 12 books unread. I have Baileys. I have chocolate. I have the sofa. I have sole charge of the TV. DD2 and I can gorge on broccoli without him whining about the smell :o I can have whatever I want for dinner without worrying about cooking a proper meal for him. It's easy to cook for DD2 and she doesn't insist on 'proper' meals so will be happy with risotto, soup, something on toast etc.
I will have the whole bed to myself. I won't have someone insisting on reading random crap off the internet to me while I'm trying to read.
I will miss him, he's a good guy. But, it's also going to be quite nice at the same time!!

Does anyone look forward to their partner going away?
