How I Met My Boyfriend.

O kay well I met my boyfriend January 2007 and we started dating in February of 2007. It was hard because he was stationed in Pensacola FL until June and then he was in Coranado CA until August and now he is back on the east coast in South Carolina. It's hard not being able to see him everyday.I talk to my boyfriend everyday on the phone,texting,or on myspace. Alot of people complain that they dont get to see their boyfriend for a day or two but if you think of the military girlfriends wife's fiances they dont get to see theirs much if thier in a different place.. well if you would like you can write me thru yahoo messenger summer4069 or fine me on myspace... summer4069@yahoo.com talk to you all later!

It is hard being a military girlfriend, fiance and wife!! My fiance Just left this saturday to Iraq, i only talked to him 2 times since hes left, and the 2 times that Ive spoken to him has been only about 5 min each... Noone knows what us military girlfriend, fiance and wives go through!

Where is he in South Carolina? Because my boyfriend is at the MCAS base in Beaufort. We've only been dating about a couple of months, but he's been in the marines for 3 years. We already live over 300 miles apart, but we talk everyday- I know this is going to be very hard, because him living two states away is nothing compared to him going to japan in september- I don't even know if we'll still be together by then, but I hope we are, i'm not really expecting anything, I'm taking it one day at a time...



Does anyone know how to make deployments easier on a new "marine girlfriend"?

The easiest way to get through a deployment is to keep as busy as possible. Keep a good routine, but deviate from it once in a while to keep your sanity. The busier you are, though, the faster the time will fly.
It's not easy, it's never easy, but you're doing a great thing supporting your Marine.
