I feel selfish because I just want you home but I know you're doing what makes you happy

Counting down the days until we're reunited

But when you leave, I miss you and I want you back, and that’s how I know I love you.

Missing you is the hardest part. (via consumed-by-the-dark)

New Navy GF

Hey guys! I’m starting this blog as a way to connect with those in similar situations as me and as a way to get through the difficult times ahead. 

First a little about us:

I’m dating a man who left for basic training on February 14th (great Valentine’s Day present).  He’s currently an aviation apprentice and we’ve been together for close to 3 years.  I am in college as a biology major hoping to get accepted into med school to become a surgeon.  The human body is my passion.  But the many years of school ahead of me make my relationship with my sailor even more difficult because I will most likely never be able to move around with him until after my residency.  

My SO is currently an E2 in Navy bootcamp.  HIs graduation is on April 14th (a little over 2 weeks away!!) and after that he is going to A school in Pensacola.  I currently do not know what his rate will be but I’m hoping to find out some time this week.  These past 2 months have been some of the most difficult of my life, not only because the man I love left for bootcamp and hasn’t been able to talk to me, but also due to situations I’ve faced where I wanted nothing more than my best friend there to help me. In the past 2 months I’ve had to face surgery, being on crutches, the depression of not being able to do the things I love because of the surgery, and the struggles of a new job, all without my best friend there to help me. 

I’m here for anyone who is a military SO.  I may not be able to answer any and all questions about military life yet but if you just need someone to talk to feel free to message me!
