Long Goodbye


typically used to describe the last encounter between two friends, lovers, or family members before a long leave of absence (or in most cases, permanent).

note: the literal saying of goodbyes doesn’t necessarily have to be drawn out. “long” only clarifies the fact that the people involved won’t see each other again for a long time (if ever).
they said their long goodbyes before tommy headed out west.

i hate the long goodbye.

i wish i had known that was the long goodbye. there’s so much more i would have liked to say.
