Yes - exactly. I had a relationship for a few months with someone who lived over 600 miles away. One weekend I would bus up to see him in Canberra, and bus back on Sunday night (then go straight to work on Monday - yugh!), and then next weekend he would come down to see me.
We did break up, but it wasn't the distance thing. (It was to do with the fact that he actually liked boys more than girls, but that's another story lol.)
As you say, you live through it.
I'm sort of bemused by the anti-Justin stuff that's floating around.
I just don't see that in the ending, not at all.
Mind you, I don't LIKE the ending. I'd write it completely differently.
But then, the only season that had an ending that was even vaguely enjoyable for me was S3, and even then Brian had lost almost everything, so it wasn't exactly unalloyed joy.
I actually found the ending of S5 less objectionable than S4, because at least this time round it's something they have decided together. Not something that Justin just leaps into without, apparently, a single thought for his partner.
PS Will try to respond to your other posts tomorrow. At the moment I need to go cook some dinner and feed the cat or we might both collapse from low blood sugar. lol
