I Am a Military Girlfriend

No One Understands..

Today has been a pretty rough day so far. I was so happy when I woke up to my babe calling me. And it kind of all took a turn for the worse... He told me today that hes going to be over there for longer than we thought. And it just broke my heart. I've done pretty good with not showing my emotions to him and being strong when I talk to him. But today I just broke. I'm already so broken from all of this. I have no motivation to do anything anymore. All I do is sleep and work. I don't have any friends here to keep me busy and keep my mind off of things. I don't think I've ever felt so pathetic. And crying to him on the phone made me feel so bad. It made me feel selfish because I'm not the one that has to stay in that terrible place for longer. But it scares me so much with him being over there. I have dreams all the time of bad things happening and it makes it so much worse. If he were staying anywhere else for that extra month I would be fine. I just want him safe and happy. And it breaks my heart that hes so unhappy over there. So then I talked to some of my friends about how I was upset and ALL of them were like.... its only another month stop freaking out. I literally could of freaked out on every single one of them. Instead I just went back to bed. I need my babe to come home 3

    A month is a long time, but have to remember the positives... Like that it isn't a YEAR! Lol.

    Try getting stuff ready for him, it will go by fast. Have stuff ready for him in the bathroom, his own set of toiletries, his own set of towels, some little surprises like a cool or funny shirt, his favorite snacks, and maybe even take up a hobby and surprise him when he gets back? Crocheting is easy, I learned on youtube, and you could start a blanket for him to use when he gets back! Kind of creative, AND handmade by his lady! Or a hat would even be sweet!

    Another month is long when the love of your life is risking his life on a daily basis! Your friends sound like ********! Get some better ones! lol Don't worry about it though..I understand and know it's hard...and I've heard this soooo much while my boo is away...but you have to be strong! My prayers are with him and you while he's away!

    Unless your friends are in the same position as you or have been then they won't understand...believe me. And it sucks because you need someone to talk to.When my guy was deployed it was seriously really hard so i understand where you're coming from. But you gotta keep going. You have to wake up in the morning wipe the tears from your face and continue your day. You said you've been doing so good until now and don't let that stop you. You are a strong girl to even be with someone who is deployed and wait for them when they get home. Keep busy living your life and i promise you before you know it he'll be back. Don't stop now you're so close and your man is in the field he needs to have a clear head and not have to worry about you being sad. Continue to support him and continue to push yourself to be strong and i know you can do it!(=
