relationship question for soldiers

Good luck man, and enjoy your new career

 

In the Navy we usually call the first marriage the practice one. Almost everyone I know has been married and devoiced (myself included). Military life is hard on a young couple’s marriage. Usually,this is because young couples will get married so they can stay together when moving to different parts of the country, or they do it for living off base and the little bit of extra money.

 

Not really about your faithful-ness, it's theirs. My best friend was cheated on by his girlfriend on 2 deployments. Taking it from him, it's rough being in the military and in a relationship.

I'm kind of in the same boat, I ship in May, but will not leave in a relationship based on what I've learned, especially early relationships.





Edit: just saw you update. Good luck and glad she wants to make it work

 

My relationship with my wife while in the Army was amazing. She was an active member in the family readiness group. I think she was more proud to be an army wife than I was being a soldier. She could not have been more supportive than I could have ever imagined. She loved being an Army wife....even through all the training and deployments she was faithful and understanding. It was very hard on her but she took it in stride and did everything right & it made me appreciate her more than anything in the world and made me love her even more. I got the best one and I'm proud to have her!

 

and another reason why i didnt join the navy jkjk

she is faithful as well.......waaayyyy faithful. she got cheated on her last relationship and got hurt real bad so i doubt she would do it to someone else

 

Always have to remind myself this is a truck forum.

 

that it is....but it also has different sections for different needs. this was the place where i could get the most answers form military personnel on my specific "problem" if you want to call it that. just using the resources I have at my disposal to try and get advice. besides. this site kicks facebooks ass

 

sorry i didnt feel like reading all the posts, but i met my ex when he was already enlisted, hung out with him for two weeks while he was on leave, saw him a few months later for a couple days, then he was deployed for a year and i didnt see him, but stayed faithful to him, i cant say the same for him though.

 

at least you were faithful and thats all you can control
