I thought you ladies would get a kick out of it. I have one friend that complains when her husband has to work an out of town job for the day. While I understand that she is used to being with him all the time and a whole day is a lot for her, Facebook doesn't need to be updated with how miserable you are every two hours..

hahahahahah

(I have tons of friends who like to complain about that, too. They complain 97% more than I do.)

Meh, we're used to it, they aren't.

I don't play the who suffers more game any more. It really serves no purpose.

That is awesome ! My now dh and i were only together 6 mo before he deployed for almost a yr. That was a hard way to start a relationship but the good ones are worth waiting for. You have to have been there to know what its like thats for sure !

this.. took me a few years of riding the "poor me, my husband is military and gone all the time" train, but I am with ya SJ....when you love someone, it doesn't matter if they are gone for 2 days, 2 months, or 20 months.. you miss them. period.

I agree. There really isn't a point. Missing someone is missing someone. It took recruiting duty for me to see that its just as hard when they are working long hours. Maybe even harder because there is always the possibility that he's coming home before bedtime that night. During deployments or tdy or whatever you know he's not coming home.
