I Am a United States Army Girlfriend - Forum & Chat Board | Army Girlfriend Quotes

Ok...so I have heard some good ones so I thought we should share some...here are two...

1. ARMY Be Safe, Sleep with a Soldier

2. Who needs Prince Charming? When You are in Love with a Soldier!

I am still rather fond of

"being an army girlfriend is my superpower"

i read this somewhere and it was so true for me that i wanted to share it with yall:

If you're not in love with a soldier, you can't know adventure. You don't know smelly gray PT uniforms that require a daily washing. You can't understand green and brown camouflaged bags flooding your bedroom floor.



If you're not in love with a soldier, you can't understand the meaning of the phrase "going to the field" and the weeks you spend away from each other.



If you're not in love with a soldier, you can never imagine the hole in your heart when that phone call comes? "Honey, I am leaving tomorrow to go overseas. I don't know how long I will be gone or exactly where I am going, but I want you to know that I love you - always!"



If you're not in love with a soldier, you don't know what it's like to say that final good-bye. You don't know what it really means to be glued to the television. You don't understand fear and you can't possibly understand the sleepless nights of endless crying wondering if you will ever see the love of your life alive again.



If you're not in love with a soldier, you can't know the immense joy, the uncontrollable smile, or the butterflies in your stomach when you see your soldier march into the family waiting area upon redeployment. You can't understand the self-control it takes to stand on the other side of the room as some higher-up gives a seemingly endless welcome home speech while all the soldiers stand in formation. You don't know what it's like to have that second first kiss or what it's like to experience puppy love all over.



If you're not in love with a soldier, you can't truly understand how to make every moment count because you never know when that phone call may come again.



If you're not in love with a soldier, you can never really understand how very delicate life is!



 

Reasons to Love a Soldier:

-Always looks good in uniform

-Pretrained to obey orders

-Can make a meal out of anything

-Knows how to handle his equipment

-Carries a big gun

-Great at night maneuvers

-Can fix anything

-Knows how to do laundry

-Can sleep anywhere

Because he is my Hero!

"Why do I do it? Because nights alone aren't permanent. Missing him reminds me that I'm lucky to have someone to miss because I am not afraid to make sacrifices for true love."

"There is nothing more sexy than my man in his ACU's"

I liked those :)

I'm new to this and thought those comment were great. I'm looking to find other people that are in the same boat as me as most of my friend are not very supportive when it comes to my worries. like they say they do not understand as there partner is alway there.

I like.....Sexually Deprived For Your Freedom....kinda out there but so true and so funny!!!

I found this one and it says it all.

I am a military girlfriend. I hold no formal recognition with the powers that be I am at the bottom of the chain. I hold no Military ID card; I am not a dependent or a parent. The man I love may face unspeakable dangers and I am at the mercy of those who possess this recognition for news. I understand this and accept this.

I have promised to be here for him upon his return no matter how long he is away. They may say I am insane for making such a commitment, but I hold onto our promises and have faith that he will come home safe. I know well that my love for him fuels him in the worst of times.

There is no ring on my finger to symbolize our commitment, though I love him no less for it. I hope every day that he will be able to call because a simple 30-second phone call can bring the greatest spectrum of emotions smiling with tears in my eyes from so much joy and pain. My relationship is based on a brief communication where I love you and I’m okay speaks more than volumes and gives me the strength to keep going.

I take mo moment spent together for granted. I hold onto every touch, caress, kiss, and every word. I have memorized the feel of his skin, his smell, the sound of his voice and I play it over and over in my mind so that I will not forget. I cry myself to sleep some nights because missing him hurts so badly, but wake up the next morning, brush myself off and start a new day.

If you think being a soldier is tough, try loving one.

If you think soldiers are strong, you should look at their girls.

"I left Ken for G.I Joe"

"A soldier doesn't fight because he hates what is in front of him...A soldier fights because he loves what he left behind."

Doesn't really specify army but i like it.

"What I have with him is worth it. It is worth every lonely night, every tear I cry from missing him and the pain I feel from not having him close. It is worth it because he is my one and only. When I picture myself years from now, I see only him. No matter how painful distance can be, not having him in my life would be so much worst!"

i hear ya!  i very recently started seeing a guy in the army and im having a tough time learning how to deal with it all and none of my friends understand!  If you ever want to chat about it or have any advice on how to deal with not hearing from your guy for days at a time that would be great!

I'm new to this site, but I wrote a poem about my soldier, but its directed toward many women who are MGFs or MWs.

The Military Girls

Why don’t you understand?

I look right in your eyes

The pain and joy you cause me

Should not come as a surprise.

When you say my name

My face so flushed and red

The way you kiss me oh so right

Sends fatigue into my head.

I cannot help wanting

To always intertwine

My fingers into yours

And your fingers into mine

People always tell me

Those soldiers are no good

But tell me all the reasons

And why you don’t think I should.

God made woman strong

To be with their only one.

But tell me why it’s so wrong

For a soldier to have someone.

They stand up for their country

Their women stand for them

Their proud and loving women

And their proud to have those men.

Military men to Military moms,

Military moms to Military girlfriends,

Military girlfriends, to Military wives,

Military wives to be there to the end.

“I am a soldier”, the boys will say

“I’m strong and built to run”

If you think being a soldier is really hard

Then you should try loving one.

I just thought I would share this with some people that understand whats going on.

"Screw the shining armor-I'll take my man in dirty camo!"

 Wow! Reading that poem sent chills up my spine! That poem is absolutely perfect for describing what it feels like to be an Army GF. Thank you! I loved it!

my boyfriend had been talking about joining the army for a while...and i was at first hoping that he would change his mind...but he recently told me that hes gonna leave for basic training this summer...which doesnt seem far away especially if hes gonna be leaving...and ive been thinking about it...and realized its AMAZING that he wants to join the army...because that takes courage and strength...after reading some poems and looking at some quotes made me change my mind! i am still afraid of him being in danger...and things like that...i am going to miss him like crazy...and im not sure how im going to cope with that yet! considering we talk on the phone everynight, and see eachother almost everyday...its gonna be a major difference! if u have any advice or tips please share them with me!

When I so this all I oculd say was WOW it is all so true!

 Hey, yeah I have suggestions on how to deal with not being able to see him or hear from him for a while.  You see, both me and my boyfriend are in the united states army, and right now he is deployed until august and i am stationed in arizona...when I am origionally from NY.  not only do I not have him here, but none of my family or friends either.  I find things that I take seriously, like my job, and go to clubs or organizations that have a cool hobby I like, so I can find new people that don't know me that have some same interests as me.  That way they don't know me or my past or my boyfriend, and they are willing to listen to how you miss him, give you advice, get to know you.  It is the best thing I have done.  That way you can make daily plans with these new people who won't get sick of you talking about him lol, and the days go by so much faster.  Does that help anyone?

-Im his princess and he's my soldier

-Real love is trading your pearls for his dog tags

-I can mess with government property

-My soldier is the jack to my coke

to the Army be safe sleep with a soldier

just make sure its not mine lol

this is my favorite live every day that you are with him as if he is deploying tomorrow"
