Hey!!

yeah, its hard for sure when you think about him going away, and to be honest, it doesnt get any easier!!! although people may say it will! but places like this are great for help and advice or even for blowing off some steam!!! my other half is away at the moment and it is hard, but i am lucky in that he handed his notice in a couple of months ago so is only in the navy until feb 09 now so we are counting down until he is home for good!!! :D
just keep in mind that no matter how hard it is for us, it is just as hard for them, if not harder!! at least we know that they are stuck on a boat somewhere in the middle of the sea, with a load of smelly men lol but we are home and as far as they know, could be doing anything at all, which must cause them worries!! not that we do of course!! we spend more time in places like this feeling gloomy and helping each other get through it!!!
you will end up like the rest of us, so damn proud of our guys and the amazing job they are doing!! and remember, we may miss them like hell when they are away, but it sure is amazing when they are home again!!!! xx

Hey hun,

Must be hard, when I met my oh he had already been in the Navy 5 1/2 years, he loves his job, and it suits him down to the ground. So in a way I'm happy that he's happy, I'm obviously not happy when he's away, but I understood that when we got together and made a decision to see it through.

It must be hard when your oh joins when you've been together a while, bet you feel like everything's been turned upside down, but him being away from you will make him appreciate you that much more, and the time you do spend together when he's home will be fantastic :) Trust me ;)

:) Hi. My husband in navy reserve and has been having two weeks away, but recently mobilised to go to Afghanistan so my heart goes out to you, hun ass I know exactly how you feel.

My sister and I saw him off at Birmingham yesterday, he's in Portsmouth for four months and then goes out.

We are all here for you and can help each other - the chat room a good place to let off steam, cry and talk things through.

Hello Wilsmylove, My boyfriend also joined the Navy.

Prior to him joining up we lived and worked together. He was just starting the joining process when we started dating. He had an 18 months wait for the next intake for his trade so it was a big shock when Raleigh happened!

Now 4 years on we are married with an 8 month old baby boy. Its tough at times and like you in my ideal world we would be waking up next to each other every morning but it really makes us appreciate every day we have together.

Hey hun welcome to Wags.

My o/h is a Submariner in the Navy, we have been together 6 months and its my first forces relationship. He has been in the navy ten years so its his life so unfortunately I have to get used to it. Sometimes its a struggle but once you get used to it, its get a little easier with the support of good friends and the girls on here you will get through it.

My O/H is at sea and I havent heard off him in two weeks now and still got another two to go

All i can say is that it will test your relationship to the max but if your strong you will get through everything that is thrown at you, just stay strong and stand by you men! And most of all make sure you talk and be honest with one another!Also Come on here and everyone will support you!
