I am in Fort Hood and my husband is active duty.  I have a beautiful daughter that is nine months and I am currently pregnant.  This is a completely different pregnancy.  I've been really sick and can't even keep food down.  I'm sure many of you has gone through that.  I come from a big family so I am used to having people around me, but now I am always alone, which makes me very sad and depressed at times.  I am from Hawaii and very new to the mainland.  I like it, but there is something missing, which is friends; people who I can truly connect with and rely on.  I would love to meet new people on here and get together.  Hope to hear from you soon!

 

Thank you for taking time to read me!  :o)

Aloha I have been an army wife for over 15 years. I too have felt the same way you have. We are stationed on the Big Island and this is our 8th move. We will be coming back to Ft Hood in the summer. I remember what a seasoned army wife at the time told me at one of our first duty stations and that is "if you can't find something to join here you won't anywhere". There are so many ways to meet other wives in the military community you just have to reach out. Join a group.

Make roots where you are and be transparent. It makes you vulnerable but you are also real. Remember the military community is your Ohana (family) now. People are less likely to reach out nowadays till you do. It is a beautiful state, not Hawaii;0) but still rich in history and plenty of things to do. I wish I was there to meet you. I pray you can plug in somewhere. I would start at PWOC - a group of ladies meeting at the local chapel for bible study with childcare. Aloha SKN

Wow!  Thank you so much for replying and understanding where I am coming from.  It really means a lot to me to have someone respond, especially the way you did.  My husband is from Big Island.  I am from Oahu.  Hopefully one day I will meet you.  I am taking your advice and will look at more groups that the military has to offer.  Hope all is well with you and your family.  I miss Hawaii very much. 

 

Take care and hope to hear from you soon!

"Ohana means family, and family means no one gets left behind." I was stationed in Hawaii a little over a year. Beautiful place. I especially loved being able to swim at the beach every day of the year. I was the only one at my wedding in December in Oregon who had a tan. :) 1998

Yes I love Hawaii and miss it very much and the water is wonderful.  The weather is perfect for the beach and for the family to enjoy their time.   Hope you guys get to visit there again soon.  Take care thank you for replying to my post.

Hello! We are stationed at Hood, but my husband is currently deployed so me and the little one are in Georgia for the time being. Do you know if you're having a boy or girl? I have a 4 month old little boy.

hi there, i find your case something similar to mine, i am also new here in fort hood, my husband is  in active duty i am from philippines and i used to be surrounded by a lot of family and friends, but now, since i get here  im kinda sad and spend my time  alone with my poodle dog when hubby is at work. i have a son who's 8 years old but unfortunately he's not here with me right now which makes me feel more sad and depressed, but i am praying that he will be coming here this year... i am open to make new friends because friends for is like a family that u can talk to and spend quality time with.. the only thing i can guarantee is i am honest and easy to hang with...then the rest is up to us to getting to know each other... i hope we can be good of friends...
