DB will be coming home in less than 2 weeks! :yahoo :yay

So my mom keeps bothering as to what I want for Christmas. So I decided last night, and spoke to her today about it. I explained to her that I wanted a gift card to Delta Airlines. She understood why, but thinks I should wait until my birthday in early March!! :puzz (I'm planning on flying to Texas to see him during my spring break) Now her reasoning behind all of this is that I should just wait to see when he comes home, because he may have changed. I understand that part- but gosh she's making it seem like the worse! :no I've been hearing all sorts of stories about when soldiers come home, and they cheat on their SO's, or they just plain and simple don't have feelings for them anymore. Now I'm starting to get worried, and especially with my mom saying something like-it's even worse :worry

I have not heard anything from him for a lil over 2 weeks now.. I know he's busy and all with gettin ready to come home. I've been under so much stress lately it hasn't even been funny with school and all..:hairpull And I'd just like to talk to him.. even an email would be fine! There's so much I'd like to tell him, but I want to wait till I actually talk to him instead of saying it all in an email. And if I were to complain in the email, I feel selfish for it.. :shame

I'm going to type up an email, and try not to complain to him- but I'm not going to send it just yet. I would like to see what the input is on it from you ladies first! :)

Try not to worry about it too much. I'm sure all of your worries will disappear when you see him again.

hmmm I think typing up the e-mail and than only sending half of the stuff that's going on is fine! I know I HATE e-mailing DF when I have something big to tell him! I want to tell him over the phone! But than I usually end up forgetting what I wanted to say!

I know your mom means well but it's not coming out right! Like I e-mailed you my parents have mentioned things like before! And it drives me nuts! I know they love me and that's why they are saying but it's causing more harm than good!!

I'm sending you mega phone vibes...maybe once he moves bases he'll able to call you more?! DF said he would have more time once he moved!!

And I think it's more important to go down for homecoming than spring break, spring break is a couple of months away and I'm sure you guys could come up with the money!

PS when is your spring break? I'll be down there than too!! And my brithday is March 8th...yours??

These worries are normal...but don't put to much into them. I have heard more good stories about homecomings then bad. Have faith in your relationship and your man.
