Yeah. The Noldor must have had it even worse than the Numenoreans. They were even closer to Valinor than Numenor was, but they couldn't go there. But they showed a lot more self-control than the Numenoreans did.
Of, course, they were probably allowed to atleast visit Valinor, so that would help ease their longing.
