I Am the Girlfriend, Fiance, Or Wife of a United States Marine

The Way Life Hits You Sometimes...

So my boyfriend was supposed to leave February 7th but he got a call from his recruiter and is now leaving this Monday instead.  I got to see him tonight but I was just balling my eyes out.  I only have this weekend left with him.  I thought I was gonna have him with me longer.  I feel so upset and don't know what to do.  I was not ready for it as it was and now its pratically here.

    It'll go by quicker than you think. Next thing you know it will be 4 years later and almost time for him to either reup or get out. Trust me time flies!!

    This same exact thing happened to me and my marine. We had one last great weekend together and those memories got me through boot camp. It will go by before you know it even though at times it may not feel like it. If you need anything you can message me. I am on here all the time.
