Today is the day...vent

I might curb stomp someone. I thought I was getting close to a coworker and I had shared that I have anxiety about my husband coming home. It's an adjustment. Well apparently I'm not handling this deployment the right way. I don't seem like I miss him and I'm too independent. I must not want to be married.

I was shocked. This was coming from someone whose sister's friends cousin was married to a military man and got divorced. And Im just like this girl.

I'm sorry that I'm coping the way I am. This isn't out first deployment. I have no choice but to be independent and if I was an emotional mess all the time I'd never get anything done and be miserable to be around.

I hate people. End vent!

She's divorced and hasn't been involved with a military guy. I don't expect people to understand the lifestyle and the anxieties that come with it, but I certainly didnt expect that type of a reaction.

This is our second deployment and I kno

My DH and I have been together for 10 year, and he has deployed 8 times so I know what you mean when  you say you just have to do it.  Many people have told me I'm a bad military wife because I do not get upset about deployments and "count down

I had the same worries (It was our second deployment). Between that and not crying at the parade field when he left, I was told that I was "Doing it wrong". THere's no right way to do a deployment-they all suck. Period. I'm in the "let's just keep moving"

wow. What a rude response! MH used to travel a lot and it was a huge adjustment when he stopped and was home every night.

A wise lady (my grandmother) once told me that any concerns or issues I have regarding my marriage are best discussed with my Husband and GOD.  I agree that coworker was really off base for talking about what she doesnt know about, but keep in mind,
