thatfitgirl-lyss asked: Yup so along with the break, at 1700 last night he found out he's deploying in three weeks. OH and he was suppose to come home this Friday, and he might not. girls, help :/ I know this isn't the worst situation but I need some support. He wants his space, and I get that. But that was Sunday, today he told me about not coming home and deployment. This changes everything..
caylaleighpaige asked: Living on base, everything is covered. However, some places do have limits. Like if you were to have a tanning bed in your house, your bill would be a bit higher than usual. So they would bill you the extra $50 tops.
jannetje asked: ...I fangirled just for a second. You posted my link. That definitely just happened.
Anonymous asked: My boyfriend & I started dating 3 months before he left for the Navy. He left for bootcamp in early June. Our relationship is so new (but we got so close in the 5 months we've been talking) that I am confused about him leaving just when we're starting out. I feel like I'm committing myself to something so big, so early on. I care about him so much, but it's hard to accept...
Anonymous asked: I just found out today that my boyfriend is deploying in August. I'm not sure if he wants to be in this relationship anymore, hes been really distant the past few weeks. I don't know what to think or how to feel at this point. We've only been together for a few months but I really like him and really want things to work.. I just don't know what to do :[
submission from tacoinator:
My boyfriend is about to go to bt in 4 days
We got into an argument today and he basically said that our relationship is nothing and that he can’t wait to leave to go to basic. I don’t know what to do, help?
Again, I’m sorry this is so late! I think the only reason he said that is because he’s stressed about leaving and wanted to throw something in your face. Try to put yourself in...
openlockedhearts asked: After a while of being away my bf gets into this mode its hard military ,difficult to talk to and sometimes even rude. I try to joke to get him out of his mood but it just seems to get worse ....have you or anyone ever dealt with that before? any suggestions what to do?
thatfitgirl-lyss asked: So my guy wants to take a break. Obviously I can't fight him on it, I let him know how I felt about it and now I'm just confused as shit. I'm giving him his space, it's what he wants but he also said his heart isn't in it. I don't even know what to think about it.. He comes home Friday the 29th for THE FIRST TIME IN 4 MONTHS. And now we're on a break. Help :(
Anonymous asked: not really a question just wanted to complain to somebody. lol. my boyfriend is in the marines & when we first started dating he said he didnt wanna re-enlist. i was fine with that. but last night we were talking & he said hes probably gonna re-enlist again :/ only as a reserves though. which isnt that bad, but it still killed me a little. i know what i have to do. support and not bitch,...
missmeilani asked: My boyfriend will be getting out of the Army in 5-6 months and is stressing out about it.I understand why, its a drastic change.But he's taking it out on me and we have been arguing a tad bit more than usual.He admits that its because he's stressed and that its not right to take it out on me.How do I help him out at all or can I?
catgotyourtongu3 asked: can you post some of the best militaryso blogs you know of? thanks :)
stereotypicalslacker asked: "how do you guys do it?" we tumbl. Seriously. We make friends with all of the other milSO's. We share happiness and sorrow. We write letters and send care packages. It's all about support. Not only supporting your marine, sailor, soldier, etc. but each other. We won't tell you it's easy, but we'll tell you it's worth it if you love him and he loves his job,...
shetalkstoalltheangels-inherhead asked: The military takes away BAH and rent and utilities are completely covered when you live in base.
Anonymous asked: On base you get free electric and water and all that. Just have to pay for the actual place.
Anonymous asked: What do you pay for when you live in base housing (im getting married). my guy always leaves the lights on and it drives me crazy.
yummmorgan asked: how can i get my info put on the directory??

Internet is up!

Lovely Followers,
Hey guys, I know we’ve been behind on confessions and adding people to the SO directory, PLEASE understand that we are both very busy. At the moment, I’m in California spending time with my amazing boyfriend, as some of you know the time I have with him is to a minimum and I try to spend it wisely. I only see him twice a year and each time it’s for less than a year. This month, I...

Anonymous asked: thanks, Anon.. that helps (: When we were talking once about just things, he said you know it's not ever going to get easier. I said to him "the things we face in life are going to get harder, that's part of growing up. But that doesn't mean our relationship has to get harder, we just need to support each other and talk when we can. I'd say I can't wait to start our...
Anonymous asked: I had to explain to my boyfriend, when he told me I was bitching about nothing once "Look, our lives are different, and what we do is different, and it's hard for both of us, in different ways. But I can still have bad days and I can still have problems, and I can still need YOU to support ME for once. So if you can't remember you're a normal boyfriend, not just a Marine, then...

Anonymous asked: I've been going through a lot this semester, at one point I was.. and possibly still am, suicidal. I don't think I could ever commit to it but I've definitely committed to the thought of it. I don't know what to do because I want to talk to my so about it and I have but not for a while. I cut I've been clean for a while now but my guy noticed the scars before we started...

thatfitgirl-lyss asked: To the return address' to Afghan, I can't answer yes or no. But I would DEFINITELY put a return address. Mail gets lost to our loved one's all the time, personally I'd rather get the letter back and re-send it versus not knowing if he got it and if he didn't, where it ended up. Ya know what I mean? :)
Anonymous asked: I started dating this guy a month or so before his deployment, but he pushed me away right before. I completely understand that. After expecting to be in training + combat for a year, he got quickly deployed to Afghanistan and was sent back after a month. His commander told him that he will not be coming back to the army. His life plans are now ruined and his PTSD doesn't help make it easier....

Hey girls, Micaela here...
I’m sorry about the slacking with the confessions and answering questions. It’s been pretty hectic on my end. With school and the David being gone a lot longer than he said he would..I still haven’t heard back from him.
But anyway I’ve just been distracting myself and I haven’t been on the computer lately to be able to do confessions.
I’m going to do some...
Anonymous asked: where in cali are you moving to/ are you at? californians are super friendly and you'll fall in love soon enough :)
armylifesjustnotmystyle asked: Where are you moving to in California?
alphaxistephie-deactivated20120 asked: i would say just in case, because what if the address is wrong or something... i always put my return address on just in case.
blatantlyblunt asked: I'm in Cali - South Orange County, so the northside of base. If you ever have any questions/need a friend, let me know. It's not as friendly as the South, but no one will bother you if you decide to venture out on your own :) San Clemente is beautiful, and the OCTA (the buses) aren't terrible if you don't have a car.
Anonymous asked: I was wondering if anyone knows if return addresses are required on letters sent to Afghanistan?
Anonymous asked: Hey! I know you've been really busy with Ian coming home, school ending, getting ready for Cali, etc. But, I was just wondering when confessions will start back up? Just curious. :-)
Hey Everyone!
So I’m finally here, so sorry for not posting much yesterday, just a lot going on. I finally have internet at the house, so while the boy is at work I will be answering questions, making confessions, and reading! Back to my grind! The little bit of Cali I’ve seen so far is beautiful, but for now I’m just sitting in his friends house while he’s at work. The house is really...

Anonymous asked: For all the anons whose bfs/crushes/whatever have other girls they're talking to, dating, etc. but saying "I love YOU though" I hate to break it to you, but he doesn't. He may in fact love you, but he doesn't love you enough to do right by you. The biggest question to ask yourself is "What would I tell my daughter/sister to do?" If it's leave, then leave....
blatantlyblunt asked: For justlikeadropintheocean - if he doesn't deploy now, when he has the chance, he'll look back later and regret it. Horribly. Yes, it will suck. Anyone who says deployments DON'T suck (as a spouse) is lying through their teeth. Tell him you're scared, and of course you want him to be happy, but you also would love for him to stay, and ultimately it's his decision, and...
abby-takingitdaybyday asked: No I'm not from California, but my husband's military orders count as resident status for the school. Are you married?
abby-takingitdaybyday asked: I love it and I am actually wanting to major in Nursing as well! I am hoping to take the Certified Nursing Assistant course this fall, but I am not applying to the nursing program here due to the fact that I'm moving home to Texas next spring/summer. :) But I did my nursing pre-reqs there and it is a really good school.
abby-takingitdaybyday asked: I go to Mira Costa College! :)
Anonymous asked: Seeing all this school talk really makes me want to join in :) Do you know what you want to major in? I live in California and have been researching schools here since I was little (I'm a second year in college now) :D
bunchotits asked: to justlikeadropintheocean: for me personally i know my man joined to be deployed and fight with his brothers and defend our country. yes i miss him when he's gone and yes i worry like hell that he is safe but this is the job he signed up for and this is what he wants to do. so i won't stop him. i only support him.
justlikeadropintheocean asked: So yesterday my boyfriend (a Marine) asked me if I would be mad if he volunteered for a combat deployment. He only has a year left in the corps before he gets out and he says he wants to do something meaningful with the end of his enlistment and the money would be nice.Obviously, I don't want him to be in harm's way and the idea of combat is scary, but I don't know how to react. I...
Anonymous asked: san diego isn't really that bad. i have a ton of friends who graduated from there without any problems involving partying, and my cousin is working on his degree there without problems as well. it's all about your self control.

missvivianlindsay316 asked: First off, to the person who said Cal State SD, it's San Diego State University, there's no Cal State SD. Three of California's State Universities (SF, SD, San Jose) are called (City) State - why? I have no idea lol. And for everyone telling you San Diego State is a huge party school, it only is if you make it so. EVERY COLLEGE has people that LOVE to party but the truth is, a...
