Not looking forward to fending for myself again
The hubby is gone for training and won't be back until almost the end of next month, then is home for a month and leaves again for 6-8 months *sigh* so I have one month to get it in good lol. Anyone else have to go through the same thing?? I always feel like I'm the only one (besides my hubby) not getting any lol.
Re: Not looking forward to fending for myself again
Whyyyy do they get married soooo young???
There's more to a marriage than sex.
Find something to do during your "down time" ie while he is gone.
since when is 24 "soooo young"!? Just because you didn't get married at that age doesn't mean it won't work for others. Answer the question, don't start picking on something that doesn't relate.
I suggest finding some sort of class or activity that meets on a weekly basis so you have something to plan and look forward to. I'm not a military wife but my hubby works really long hours, with a long commute, AND on night shift. So I'm alone for most of the day and I understand. Keeping yourself busy is the best cure!
Well If 24 is too young to be married what age is old enough to be married? We've been married for almost nine months and have only been together for two months of due to him and I protecting this country and by time we reach our 2nd year of marriage a total of 6 months (if that) of actually being together, oh and did I mention a couple of months after we got engaged we were apart for a year and two months, so yea I definitely know there is more to marriage than sex. I have plenty to do, chasing after a little boy, school, taking care of home, working out, and getting things together to start my own business, down time is rare and when I have it I want to spend it with my husband, whether we are watching a movie, folding laundry or having sex. There is more to marriage than sex but it is a part of it.
Get a good vibrator with extra batteries. Get some good books. Find friends to go out with.
Dont focus on the timeline of him being gone so long. You will get used to him being gone then have trouble getting used to it when he gets back.
Have fun and enjoy the time.
Oh gosh I wish!! He is going to be deploying on a ship...no privacy! I would be lucky if we get clear phone conversations. We'll get through it, we've done it before....it just SUCKS!!
My H and I do a lot of stuff durring deployments and TDY's. One thing we do is send an email or letter starting out an erotic story. I'll do 2 paragraphs and send it. He'll do the next 2 and so forth until the story ends.
Honestly, other than those letters and emails, there comes a point where I rarely think about sex any more. I know it sounds weird. I think it is because I keep myself so busy with the kids, house and everything else. You can get through it.
