    its a rough ride when you dont have people's support. Its also harder when people decide to open their mouths. I was with my now husband for a month before he deployed. He was in afghanistan for 6 months. He came home in febuary. we got engaged in March. and I finally got to see him in May. I was engaged to someone I had never met because I knew HE was what I wanted. I married him a month after he got here. Its been tough because hes made a few really dumb decisions but I know it my heart he's what I want and need. Dont let anyone judge your relationship because if they had the balls to deal with what we deal with on a daily basis they would be with a Marine!

      Couldn't agree with you more. He is what I want so I'm going for it. I don't want to miss the chance and then go through life with "what if" ... Thank you :)

    Has your dad met Nestor? I feel like it helps when your dad knows the guy. And I don't think you will leave on bad terms. It sounds like your dad just doesnt want to loose his baby girl. :) I'm sure he is just going to deny it as long as possible but he seems like he will support you once reality kicks in

      Yeah he has! He used to work with him before he left for boot camp. And my dad likes Nestor, he's told me. But your right, he's scared of losing me which i can understand, but still lol. I mean it does help that alot of people from work who know the both of us talk great about Nestor to my dad.. They know how he is feeling about all of this... But he still keeps insisting that I can't go anywhere. Thank you tho! :)

      Lol I don't think you will be leaving on bad terms. Your daddy is just going to deny it as long as possible though. :)

    oh wow! thats intense....i can relate to the frustration when i told my best friend about moving to ohio with my marine all she could say were negative remarks. i seriously would have acted the same as you in your situation...the nerve of some people is appalling

      Yeah well at least it was your best friend.. This guy, or his woman, have no right to say I'm being stupid for what I'm doing. Especially coming from those 2 who cannot lead by any good example.
