    It really is the ones that wait at home that are the special ones, I wish I had that much support when I was in the Navy

    I am going to share this because I have some friends like this. Those girls who don't look at what they have but rather what they do not. My man paid $1000 to come up from Virginia to see me for 3 days. Thank you for this. A lot of people don't realize that if one has a significant other in the military, it is both of them sacrificing a lot. Not just the one in the service.

    This is perfect! Definitely explains my daily life. But the great news is my boyfriend is right by my side! :) he payed $400 for a plane ticket to come home for 10 days and then hes off to VA. He is THE best boyfriend in the world! I love him.

    Civilians do NOT understand what its like to be in a military relationship whatsoever. Its very hard to find support. :) Good Luck to everyone and their relationships! Stay Strong.

    This is so true. I missed a Skype call from him because I dozed off for 15 minutes (he was at port and was 20 hours ahead of me. I was up for 30 hours straight waiting for him because I got the call that he reached port and was trying to find internet when I was going to bed. So of course I stayed awake and waited and continued to do so every night that he was there so I could talk to him.).I was crying and was so worried that I wasn't going to get to see his gorgeous face/hear his gorgeous voice on Skype. Luckily when I woke up he was still on. It's amazing how much people take what they have for granted. All I know for sure is that the kind of relationship,bond,faithfulness,dedication and love that we share with our military men is truly something special. I don't talk to hardly and of my civilian friends I have any more because of the exact reason's stated in this article.I get frustrated beyond belief when they complain about things like he's playing his video games too much and I'm going through my love being on a 63 day mission with no communication. Thank you for sharing :)

    Honestly, ive been whining and complaining to my soon-to-be sailor because i don't want em to leave me here.. This was beautiful. Really gave me a change of heart.. to be ALOT more supportive and be proud and not so selfish anymore.

    I'm crying right now. I feel this everyday and my roommate takes for granted and complains all the time about her civilian boyfriend she's been dating for a month. I'm so happy someone else understands.

    Love this! 6 months so far without him, and I can't stand listening to my friends complain that they haven't seen their boy in a few days.
