as many of you know, I am a milso. I got some rather bad news, rather, the world / the USA did, and I am not handling it very well because it hits very close to home.
I actually have two questions.
1) are there any other milso's on here? please talk to me xc follow me on tumblr, pm me, chat on this thread, something
2) if I wrote a series of one shots and/or a story in off topic writing about my agonizing thoughts / the struggles of being alone / the struggles of being a milso / missing your soldier after days of not hearing from them, would anyone read it?
thanks babies, love you always xx

i would read it and please message me it, it sounds really interesting.
sorry about the recent news. it's not affecting me as much as i'm not in the usa, but it isn't an ideal situation

it is just a thought, a work in progress. in my head its more of a vent - a slam poem maybe. i don't even know. i can't decide what i want to do yet cx
i didn't even know until he told me. i don't watch the news. but its scary because that's directed RIGHT at him and if i lost him i would lose it. i was driving on the interstate when he told me and i lost it, i almost killed myself driving

it sounds really cool though. you should try and work on it!
you aren't gonna lose him, i promise. the chance is too small to worry about. if it isn't gonna happen, don't think about it. be confident in him, both of you can do this

thank you! i will probably end up putting something together when i am emotional
also thank you for talking to me and comforting me. it has been a crazy day, and ive cried a lot a lot i just miss him i suppose. and we haven't really talked other than him telling me that in like a week. he's had a lot to do. and then his mom called in the middle of him facetiming me :c

Hi friend <3 My fiance is in the reserves, although theres a good chance his unit might get deployed this year. I would definitely read your writing if you posted it on off topic, and if you ever need to talk my pm box is always open <3 ah, so glad to see you. deployed where? >.< thank you, and my man is in the navy... stationed in japan, where NK's first threat was. but with Guam being right above japan, it would still affect him if anything happened.. ughghghghghgh

@striker hello my love. mother or father? sweetclover1 ugh neither of those are too great, but Syria? nooooooooo no way and everyone is definitely on high alert i assume. i am also assuming this is the reason we haven't had time to talk hes in Yokosuka, he loves it, and he loves japan, but of course he hates being away from his family and me, i guess i am pretty important as well

ʀαуɴє♡ father. he's kinda close to retirement tho. but he's been in for coming up on 25 yrs also when he retires encourage him to speak to a veterans' affairs officer. my father is a vet, and was a VAO, and helped many veterans sort out their retirement / get benefits from injuries/PTSD

It's good that he loves where he is, even if it is far away. My guys in yearly training right now in Cali and hates it And o' course you're important

ʀαуɴє♡ my dad knows all that stuff already. as u can imagine w how long he's been in, p much all his friends have already retired or are on the verge of it. believe me he's heard that whole speech a bunch already i know! but it really is worth it to do as soon as you retire, bc once you're old it is a lot harder to dig up information or get help. there were so many old vets who were too stubborn to do it while they were healthy, but when they got older and tried, much of their info had been "lost" etc...... it is really sucky how they were treated. my dad was one of the good VAOs, he would do anything to make sure people who needed it got what they signed their lives away for

sweetclover1 i'll hope for Germany for you as well xc and it kind of drives him crazy to be so far away. he gets so moody and sad and grouchy. i have a friend named Emilee that's in cali, but of course, she's a marine and cali is huge so they wouldn't know each other

ugh. i'm glad I actually have someone to talk to, even if it is a short period of time. all of my friends get weird about their s/o if they don't see them for a day. and i'm like???? I watched my baby board a plan on july 2nd, 2017 at 5 am and fly 8000 miles away from me >.< and it doesn't matter that its "just cali" if hes far away, its the same struggle and I will never belittle another milso if their s/o is "just" in the states somewhere c:

Me too, its nice to have someone who gets it. And yeah, same with my friends, or its just, idk, weird to talk about it? Idk, its just hard to irl I guess. It's been better this time, cause last time it was when he went to basic and that was six months with no way of contact but letters, and then his drill sergeants would withhold them for awhile (both sending them and receiving them), so at least this time he has his phone and we can talk when he's not training.

I never had to deal with mine being in basic. He joined in 2015 when he graduated. I graduated in 2016. until recently he was with another girl, and she did not treat him very well. we've been friends since I was a freshman bc we had math class together EVERY year, but I was mean to him bc I thought he was super attractive and I didn't want to cause drama (he dated one of my best friends, we are obviously not friends anymore) but I moved two states away, so our friendship would have ended anyway

Ahh, how'd you two reconnect then? If you don't mind my asking c: I had been dating this guy for 2 years, and he'd gotten me a promise ring and everything bc we were going to get married and then suddenly things started going south he started cheating on me. I found out while he was staying a weekend with me, chewed him out, and kicked him out. he had no ride home and his home was an hour away. I dropped out of college and moved two states away. alec of course being my friend comforted me and stuff his girlfriend made him stop talking to me bc she was jealous (even though we did not flirt at all) and then his girlfriend broke up with him bc she couldn't handle the distance I actually texted him to be spiteful bc I was mad he let his ex gf control him, but then he called me all upset and my heart melted then about two months later he got word his sister was sick, so he came to the states again. I drove 4 hours to be with him and stayed with him for 20 days. he asked me to be his gf the very first day I was there. which led to some other stuff c; great time, never wanted to leave his house. watched him go and broke my heart but yeah he is honestly the love of my life. never been happier
