to have the worst thoughts before they leave? My DH is only going to training and before I say anything else, I just want you to all know i completely trust him. And I know there is nothing he would do to hurt me.

that said, I can't help but think of wild and crazy guys night outs and all these things just run through my mind. what if we just "disconnect?":tired

ARGH! Does anyone else have these thoughts or am I just paranoid?:ohno

yesss i doo!!! try to remember that if your relationship wasn't worth it to him, he wouldn't be taking it with him. he knows it's not going to be easy and he's still in it - that should tell you something :)


:hugehug

Oh yeah I have been there! Our first patrol together we weren't married yet. All these things went spinning around in my head! I made myself crazy. We were just engaged and just off shore duty. (Navy) He was going out on a submarine with a port call. All I could thing was what could happen on that port call. I was being so stupid. I knew he loved me. Little did I know that everynight that they were in on that port call he took someone else's duty so that when they got home he had something like 7 nights duty free so he could be home with me! Looking back, that was over 8 years ago now. (WOW!) I would have talked to him about it before he left for sea. I think it is better to get everything out on the table ahead of time. Things just seem to work better that way. If he knows what you are thinking and you know what he is thinking, there is less wonder and worry.

OH MY YES it is normal my Marine and I have been married 8 years but we have age difference on our side see he is 29 I am 44 so thinking of that i do get wild thoughts about wild things and them I remember he isnt typical I always tease him that I dont have to worry about the young girls I have to worry about my mom hahahahahahah he always says my mom is beautiful! guess thats a good thing

anyway it's not like i have let myself go i am a shorty i am 4 foot 10 and weigh a whopping 95 pounds but i still think like wow when he is over there in the middle of a war he is going to be in a little fox hole with other women holy crap they are at war i mean holy crap I am horrible thinking like that then guilt over thinking it because he isnt like that yeah I am losing it deployment i guess does that to you I am not ready for this

ease your mind you are just thinking like the rest of us tell your soldier thank you for his service
