New here and needing advice
Re: New here and needing advice
You are an absolute biitch. You have a lack of compassion for your fellow military wives. I don't even have words to deal with you. Are you all that mean?
Am I the only one shocked by the replies on this topic? Sweetie, not all of them are trying to be mean. Don't jump to conclusions so fast. My hubby just got out of Basic and AIT not too long ago and we barely talked (not to mention we were only married ONE MONTH before he left. Talk about heartache). Just because he doesn't write, doesn't mean he didn't care. He's most likely still in what they call "red phase"--where they don't get a lot of freedom, spare time, etc. to do anything. They have to EARN the privilege to do most things. Not to mention during their free time, they also have to use that time to shower, clean the uniform, prepare for the next day, etc etc. The fact that you have an "eye candy" is appalling in my eyes. What your boyfriend needs the most is support! My hubby told me all the time that my support and letters are what actually kept him sane and motivated each day he was away. I didn't get many letters and I sure as hell didn't jump to conclusions that he is cheating. When would your boyfriend even find the TIME to cheat? Doesn't make any sense. If you feel this way, you NEED to tell your boyfriend ASAP. You both don't deserve to be in a relationship if there is no trust--which I can see from your post that there isn't. Being a military girlfriend, spouse, etc. is the hardest job in the military. I can see that and I've barely even begun my adventure as a military wife. I can't stress enough that you need to figure out how you feel. If it's supporting your boyfriend, then you need to cut the ties with this "eye candy", especially since you have no proof that there is cheating going on. Write him as much as you can, even if you don't receive many letters back. If it's the other way, you need to be upfront with him. Don't be that "Jody" letter...

I think so too. I know I'm not being fair but it's how I feel! I don't know what to do...that's why I posted here. I'm looking for help.
Don't you see? We're ALL bitter old hags!
Oooh! I have one!
That Applebee's guy is nacho man, the boot camp guy is!
Get it? Nacho = Not your! Yeah, not as funny.
You clearly have to be an absolute biitch though to be acknowledged. Get bitchier.
Sweetie, you haven't even BEGUN your adventure. No offense.
I just slammed my laptop shut. Slammed. And DH was mad. Dammn you.
Pssht, speak yourself. I have it sooo hard when I have to figure out how I'm going to record Grey's Anatomy and The Office while still catching American Idol results show. And have you ever tried shopping at the commissary on pay day? That's an effing death trap there. My H has it easy.
Being the spouse on the homefront wouldn't be so hard if they didn't all cheat on deployment
Obviously she doesn't know what she's getting herself into. He's away in training working his ass off and not sleeping and she's back at home and crying because she thinks he's cheating since she only received one letter and ALREADY has "eye candy"? Now THAT's true love! *rolls eyes*
I was trying to be nice, but I guess that's not going to get my point across.
That's because that soldier still wants to get laid when he gets home. Any wife who actually believes she has the toughest job is selfish and delusional.
Fuuvck, I mean, who is being sarcastic and who's legitimately moronic....I can't keep up anymore.
You have a cammie purse with your husband's rank on it, don't you?
LOL, yep and I carry it around everywhere
I dodge IEDs every day
