I appreciate GreekChat!
Ok, this is kind of a vent.
Actually I appreciate the frankness of many of the regulars here on GC. I am on another board for military spouses, and everyone just sugar coats everything. "I know you're saying that you don't like being alone and that you don't like anything about the military lifestyle, but you're going to love it once you're married...tell him how you feel and he'll change his mind"--instead of saying it like it is. If you want a husband who is home all the time--then don't marry someone in the military! I know you can't always choose who you fall in love with--trust me, I know!--but ugh, this is someone's life and people just want to be "Yeah you! You're great! It'll be fine!" And if I say anything, I'll just be the big B!
That doesn't happen here--and while I don't always agree with everyone--I appreciate that people try to tell it like it is so that people don't have unrealistic expectations.
Thank you for letting me vent--I will get off my soapbox now.
