Sooo my bf is in boot camp rn and I miss him like a MOTHERFUCKER (like 36 days left but who tf is counting right right) but I just rememberedddd we have old voice messages from our texts and I saved like a hundred of them to voice memos so now I have them more accessible to be able to hear his voice while I cant see him or talk to him🥲
Highly recommend to anyone who may need it!! It’s helping. Even the messages completely out of current context and just in the context of the conversation we were having. I just miss him. That’s all
