I Am a Military Wife

And I miss my deployed husband so much. It's not like this is even the longest we've been separated. But every time we are separated hurts more than the last. It's silly. I know. But he's my best friend and my soulmate and I will be so relieved and happy when he gets home.

As a retired service member with over 7 years deployed to combat zones or away for training, I can tell you that he probably feels the same way. It is a difficult life and I have seen many marriages fail because of infidelity or because the spouse who is left alone at home starts feeling as though they have been abandoned. It doesn't have to be that way.

I am willing to chat with you if you like to help you through this. I promise I will act appropriately.

@rhouse Thanks. That's very kind of you. I just needed to say it. When ever I talk to him those words are always on reply in my head and I'm constantly trying to keep myself from saying it to many times.

If you ever want to chat about it, let me know. I think I understand it from both sides. My wife also deployed with the military and left me home alone. It is never easy. @CleverFunnyNameGoesHere
