I Love My Soldier

I don't think you should feel weird or out of place or anything like that. Yeah, it's different, but your husband is still gone. Gone is gone is gone. You are welcome to be here. Just because you get to talk to your husband everyday doesn't mean that you don't miss him.

ALL CAPITALS. You definately need to be here girl!

Skeeter.:)

thank you both for replying it makes me feel more welcome. I do miss him so much and i wish that i were with him now. this is all new to me. no one in my family was ever military so this is weird. I guess im still getting used to it. When you go on base do u ever feel like they are staring at you, what i mean by they i mean other soldiers or even the other wives that u see shoping?

I live in the scrub in outback Oz, the most I see of Amy is a little training camp just out of town and an old RSL club. So I am more familiar with coyboy hats and hics. They still all stare, but hey, this is what we choose to be apart of.

Hey u r an army wife that is hard enough. Talking can only go so much for u. Yeah hearing your husbands voice is great but not being with out your husband is really hard. my husband is in iraq right now and i talk to him through email and he even calls sometimes. No matter what you should never feel left out because us army wives stick together. yeah im a nerd

you shouldnt feel wierd... like they have all said... gone is gone is gone no matter where they are... if he isnt there with you he is still somewhere else.. .and that means you miss him just like we miss ours... so its really not much different... i know how it is... and for a while i did get to talk to mine everyday and he would call me constantly... but that has slowly diminished... now im lucky to talk to him once every 2 weeks... and i havent heard his voice in like forever... but reguardless we still know how it feels to be without them for any amount of time and no matter where he is u still miss him... so feel free to message me if you need someone to talk to... we are all in the same boat... and there for we understand...

don't worry- my man is in texas and i'm in florida with my family-- we are thinking that he will go to iraq soon, but i miss him terribly as it is..i haven't seen him in four months and i have a one year old daughter and times get rough...............on the other hand.....we do talk every day and i love that closeness and sometimes i feel guilty cause i talk to him so much

Hello . How are you and welcome .Just a thought to share with you just like the soldiers have 2 families there teams/ bothers in service that they work/ fight/ and spend day to day with other than thier own personal families . You can have us as part of your "family " women girlfriends/ fiancees/wives that share the same pain , pride , joy, worries and concerns that you do no one ever said you cant have more than one family . So welcome to the family .

i kinda feel weird about being here cause my husband isn't deployed hes just at boot camp. but then i thought about it and i miss him cause he isn't here with me everyday and every night so i think i should be here too.

Armywife, tthat says it all... and like carlslittlelady said... welcome to the family... I haven't been here long annd I pretty much feel like Im part of the family already.


ARMY WIVES stick together and it's so true
