I rarely ever go on a rampage, but I gotta get this out!!!
I have a friend thats younger than me and always calls me for advice, which is cool. So today she texted me and asked if I cried when my husband left for Afghanistan. I told her yeah and I still do. I went through a state of depression where I didn't want to talk to anybody for at least the first month he was gone. So she tells me about her and her "boyfriend", how she cries when he leaves after a visit. She lives in NC and he lives in DC somewhere. It made me feel some kinda way after she compared her relationship to mine. We are in two totally different situations. She will never know how it feels to have your other half away for a year+.....to miss an entire pregnancy, and possibly the birth of your first child together, then have to turn around two weeks after baby is born and go back to Afghanistan. She gets to see her guy every weekend and if it was all that serious, why not move in with him or have him move here???....I do this s*** everyday and you complaining about a couple of days.....Girl bye.....I'm sorry and I don't know why it did, but that ish pissed me off....Whew I needed to get that out.... #:-s

I dnt think I'm better than anyone, but the two are no where near the same.
I feel you
@NewMommy_NavyWife ...They aren't in any way comparable. I know I'm not the only military wife out there, but I have to say that this is the hardest thing I've ever had to do. It takes really takes a strong woman.
Had a "military girlfriend" on base the other day try to compare to being a "military wife".
I bout slapped her! Lol I was like no unless you do this ish 24/7 you dnt understand. But like you said she was very young(17) so I just let it ride. Lol
I know him being gone during a time like this is hella hard, but if we dnt love them nobody will!
I'm here if you ever need to talk!
I felt like venting with you...
