When my guy joined the military it was one of the hardest things I had ever had to deal with, and I wish that someone had told be about what I was getting myself into when he left. So, to help those who are going to be in the same situation that I am in I decided to start this blog telling people about what it's like to be in this type of relationship. I will post new advice every wednesday (I want to make sure that this blog lasts a long time) and I am open to quesitons and suggestions just message me and I'll answer you within 24 hours. Good luck. Military Girlfriend Out.

He’s been gone for a week and I’ve had no way of contacting him.
It’s been hard, but hey I’m strong I can make it.
He’s home near the end of the month, but that seems like forever.
I’m stronger than you think.
Don’t try to break me down because it is you who will be broken.
d0nt-w0rry- asked: I have a brother who is at army basic right now and my brother is my best friend. I miss him soo much. Both of my parents were in the army and I know what it's like to have them be gone and to never be around them, but I'm just having a really hard time dealing with my brother being gone. I see how strong you are. It is so inspiring and I was just wondering, how do you do it?
Honestly, I cry a lot and have a lot of days that I am down, but I make sure that I have more days where I am happy than sad. Having him gone is really hard to handle, but its the positives that get me through the day.
Things like going to the movies with my best friend or a concert with my sister. He may not be involved in those things, but they help me pick myself up when I’m down and make it through the next problem.

Anonymous asked: My guy is in the army national guard, and he is leaving soon for basic but he has been going for training once a month until he leaves. Will he be at the fort for basic?
He will be at a fort for basic, but there is no specific one. He may already know which one. The training that he is doing is to prepare him for basic, but it is not part of basic training.

Anonymous asked: When my guy (in the army national guard) goes to basic this summer will I be able to contact him?
It really just depends on who’s in charge of this group. My guy was able to write me letters and call me most Sundays, but there were people in the same place as him just with someone else running things and they weren’t allowed anything.

My guy have been together for three years. As far as the whole ex thing goes I didn’t have any problems with his exs, but mine never really treated me the best so he had a very hard time with him. I didn’t live very far away from my ex so he was always trying to get back together even though my guy and I were already dating.

My guy is at training for the next month and a half to two months. If anyone has any questions I’m online.
Could kinda use someone to talk to…
Anonymous asked: Sorry, this may be long. I love your blog even though I’m not a military girlfriend—yet. Finger’s crossed :) Anyway, back in like November I went on a blind date with this guy who would later become a Marine, and even though nothing romantic came of it then, we became friends on Facebook and we would spend hours messaging each other back and forth, talking about things we couldn’t talk about with others. When he came back from boot camp, we hung out some more and got a little closer. (1)
Continuation of question:
He recently left for his second round of training. He’ll be back in a couple of months, but I was curious what happens next. After he’s done with his training, how long will he be home for? When he leaves, how long will he be gone? Will we be able to keep in touch through anything other than a letter here or there? Would it be hard to maybe try and start a relationship? Any input would be greatly appreciated!
Military Girlfriend Response:
It really depends on what his MOS is and what unit he is in in order to know how long he will be home as well as when he will leave. He should know as soon as he leaves training how long he will be able to be home as well as how long he will be gone.
If he is deployed you may not be able to send letters if they are in a dangerous area, but if he is in the states you should be able to call and text and skype.
It is always hard to be in a long distance relationship and it is even harder to start one that way, but it does not make it impossible. If both of you are willing to put in the time to talk to each other as well as being okay with not being able to be with each other as much it won’t be overly difficult for you.
Here if you have any more questions.
