Ever Since

Can you please tell me, when do we use "Ever Since".

Is it ok to use 'since'  in place of 'ever since' in the following example?

" I feel a void ever since my sister went away to college. "

 

Thanks

Hi! You used "ever since" perfectly in that sentence. "Ever since" is similar to, but stronger than, "since."
