Hello,

my name is love_tater and my man is in the military (air force). he is bein deployed in 6 months and has one leave left. im just startin to wonder if i can handle this or not i mean i love him more than nething in the worl but i need him here and hes not. i need to hold him and i just need some sdvice from ppl in my popstion. plz if u have nething nething at all tell me im really not doin well here.



thank you very very much im glad i found this group.

Honestly, this isn't for everything. You need to think if he is worth it and if you can handle the distance. Yes it is hard, but it's very very possible. :hugs hope you make the right decision for you.

deployments can make or break the relationship. but only you can be the judge of what will happen. all a deployment takes is a close relationship, faith and trust. and a ton of strength. it's not only going to be hard on yourself, but it's going to be hard on him as well. don't give up hope just because you don't think you can handle it. sometimes, you come out in the end surprising yourself. but also, don't cover your feelings from him. you definitely need to tell him how you're feeling right now. and we'll all help you as much as we can. dont be afraid to ask. pm me, or i'm sure anyone on this board, and we can help. :D

:welcome

hey, welcome! my hubby and i are both AF if you have any questions or anything. as for deployments, they are harder on some than others. i believe it gets easier after the first one. some people cannot handle it and therefore need to make adjustments accordingly. :hugs

Hello, I've only had to deal with little aways here and there. The big deployment is in a month and a half, so I'm in the same boat as you.:pray

:hi and welcome to SOS!

:hello & :welflash

:hi
my hubby is gone right now as well he'll be home in march.
you just need lots of strength and faith and trust and communication.
for me I pray alot.. God is always there for me and of course everyone that excepts Him in their lives. but thats me.
so find something that will help you you know what im saying?
you'll be alright. good luck girl. pm me anytime. we are here for support.

welcome to SOS i know it hard going through a deployment cause he never there and gone for months. But you know if you love is strong you can make it i know it going to be days that you might cry because that the love you have for him. Cause you constantly thinking about him and waiting on the email or the phone to ring. You will be okay this is great place to be cause it always someone here that will listen to you and give you advice. So if you need to talk you can PM cause i am going through a deployment now and i know how you feel when the only thing you have his a picture or a voicemail with there voice on it or something that remind you of him.

:heythere I'm Ali an Army girlfriend and survivor of 3 deployments - military relationships definitely aren't for everyone - the deployments, lack of communication can really suck! I go weeks/months without hearing from my boyfriend when he's deployed - I'm more than happy to chat to you - PM me if you'd like. Take care.

Welcome!
