Working around him
When my guy was gone everything I did was altered so I could get his letters and talk to him on Sundays. If I had to work on Sundays my boss was nice enough to let me talk to him for a couple of minutes.
Some people will find you wanting to keep in contact with him cute and will support you. Most of those people will be friends and family, but be aware that if all you do is talk about him they...

Motivation
So most of you may not realize this, but your guy is really going to need something to motivate him while he is gone. Here is something that I did not realize until my guy got home. You are going to be his motivator. Whether he tells you or not you are going to be what gets him through basic.
When my guy was gone he always talked about needing something to look forward to, something that would...

When someone says "Quit before he leaves"
It doesn’t matter how close someone may be to you they may not hold back when it comes to telling you that you need to give up on the relationship and move on before he leaves and you get yourself hurt.

Closing in on a leave date
You all have gone through mulitple stages of dealing with your guy being in the military since he signed in. Up until now it has all been talk and “what if” situations, but here you are getting down to the wire.
This is the time where you need to stay calm and prepare yourself. He is leaving and you need to be strong for him. I am not saying that you can’t be sad and that you...
Suggestion
Hey! So this is just a friendly suggestion, not meaning to attack at all in any way. But in your tags, I noticed that you tag all the branches, but you’re missing the Coast Guard. Being a military S/O myself, I can speak for plenty of others who have had to deal with long distance while their other half was away for 8 weeks at basic training, 3 months to a year underway, or even serving in...

Look out for two all new posts tomorrow and feel free to ask me to talk about whatever you are nervous about.
May through July is when most of your guys and girls will be leaving for basic training so I want to be...
