Madame_Zombie_Stix My boyfriend is leaving for boot camp wednesday and it makes me sad....I haven't been well. I need to work but I can't focus because I'm sad all the time. I keep crying myself to sleep and it sucks...I feel like a wuss/whiner D: Its so stupid..." It's not stupid; it's perfectly natural to feel that way. I'm an Air Force Brat, grew up with the military as a huge part of my life, and even when I knew in advance that the service people in my life were leaving and I'd had plenty of time to say goodbye... it always hurts. And it will. But after awhile it begins to hurt less; the hurt doesn't go away, though. Can you find a support group on post/station/base that you think you would feel comfortable working with? One of the ones I used to be a part of really helped. I'm also here for you if you need/want me to be.

Rose is right, it's natural to feel upset or sad.
But I think you should do your best to stay in touch and show your support.
Ask friends and family to write to him or send him packages to make him
feel that he is loved in all that he does and still apart of your life.

If he's going into active duty and they aren't married, she won't be able to follow him unless she picks up and spends money to move herself and find her own place. He also won't be able to live with her even if she DOES move.
My boyfriend left for Air Force boot camp exactly a year two days ago. I was a wreck, but I spent a lot of time with his family because they were upset, too. Keep in mind that they don't get a lot of time to contact anyone, so don't be upset if he calls his parents more. Write letters. Write him every day. He will NEED to know you're waiting. I went with his family to see him graduate from Basic, and he proposed the next day. :3 We've been married for a while, now, and it's a huge change. Not just being married, but being a part of the military lifestyle. Just remember the stress you're going through is nothing compared to what he is, and do your best to make him remember that you're at home still loving him.

Silver Were Wolf If he's going into active duty and they aren't married, she won't be able to follow him unless she picks up and spends money to move herself and find her own place. He also won't be able to live with her even if she DOES move. Yep. That's one of the things that really strained my relationship with my first sailor , may he rest in peace.

"Hey guys. Sorry that I kind of left your responses hanging for awhile. I've been busy with college and club and stuff."
@Rose and Silver: "Thank you very much <3 It helps alot to know someone else has been through this before. I sent him a letter 4 days ago so I should get one on saturday or monday hopefully.I haven't dreamt or thought of anyone else the past....hmm....I think 3 weeks?XD Its so weird. I just don't have that drive to do anything anymore. Like, I still get my work done and everything, but everyone can tell that I'm just not myself."
"He was always here to motivate me to get work done and hear my troubles. And ((I hope this doesn't sound selfish)) everytime my friends cheer my up it helps a little, but not fully. Idk, do you get what i mean?x___x;"
@Kira: "I have I've just...I think he's special. More special than any other person that I have ever been with. I....I see him as someone that I do truly love and want to marry someday. I know I know I'm too young and stuff and I have school. But he's only in the military to complete his education there, not go full-time. And I have school for the next 2 years so I can't let anything distract me >_
