Military Families Support Group
Today's military family faces a lifestyle that is comprised of frequent deployments, which results in increased family separations. This often proves to be a stressful challenge for military families. This community is dedicated to the families that are dealing with the unique challenges of distance and military-related stress.
I have been dating this guy in the national guard for about 5 months now. the day after my birthday which he pretended did not exist, he tells me that he has been told his unit is up for deployment in the first part of 08. he has since told me that he is going to volunteer if his unit is not going. for the past few weeks he has been having bad dreams and will not discuss them with me or anyone. also he has become more distant from me. for the past few weekends he tells me that i am smothering him even though i have not seen him but once that week and breaks any plans we have to "see friends" he has not seen in a while. He wants me to stand my him if he goes to iraq but how can I when i feel like he does not appreciate me or anything I do for him now. Does he really expect me to put my life on hold for over a year when he can not tell me he loves me or thinks that we will be together forever? someone please help me understand him

I am sorry you are having a rough time. Have you though about asking him to go to cousoling? I know most guys won't do it, but it is always worth the shot. :) I know it wasn't much help. Sorry! Take care!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
