relationshipsSo I've been trying to read everything I can find on couples in the military. Not just one but both people. There are about 84,000 military-married-to-military couples in the United States armed forces. These days, it seems that more and more married couples are joining the military together, or -- very common -- falling "in love" in job-training or during the first assignment, and getting married. In my case we fell in love a long time ago... So, what trials do these couples face that aren't faced by a military member married to a civilian? Does the military guarantee to assign such couples together?
Well heres the deal, Military Couple face alot more then civilian couples....and no the military doesnt guarantee anything EVER.
This is what I am looking at. Being in a relationship with someone I adore. I love my Boo Bear!! And I am very proud that my baby is an amazing Sailor for the United States Navy!! And I am about to 'try' and get a 2 year ROTC scholarship that will require me to serve as an Army Officer for 4 years. What are the challenges ahead for us? Well lets start with the basics....
1) First of my baby is already face overseas time right now for a good 2 years.
2) If I do get this scholarship, I will be God knows were myself
So with that seeing each other will be hard for the next couple years
3)Also we are in 2 diferent branches so we will most likely not be stationed near each other let alone on the same base
Ok now the complicated stuff
1) There are issues (you would know if you read a previous blog) with me joining the military in the 1st place, yes everyone knows i love the military but me joining does make a few things complicated.
2) Me and my boo well arent really allowed to be together, so we live a lie to a lot of people. But i think that is are smallest issues considering we are good at it.
Well no matter what I do have faith. I know we have our hard times, but i also that we have something stronger then most. I know that we can make it. And yes I know we broke up for a few months but we were both thinking about each other the whole time, we just didnt know what else to do. I really think that we can make it work. Its going to be a bitch!! but no one ever said life was a walk in the park right?
I love ya boo
