Three years ago, I met a wonderful guy in the Coast Guard and I thought that we were going to get married. That relationship's over, but I learned a lot about military life by hanging out with some of the wives.
In the course of our relationship I endured 6 deployments, which was hard because I often didn't get as much info as some of the wives did [I was often treated as a 2nd class citizen just because I was only his GF]. I went through highs and lows emotionally and physically because of that relationship. KillarneyRose knows, she's been through every shopping spree I went through just to get temporary happiness...although I did get a few nice manicures/pedicures/Kate Spade purses.
With this war going on, I don't think I could marry a man in the military, not right now anyway. I wouldn't rule it out, though. I guess it'd depend on what kind of man he is.
I get pissed off whenever I hear about a woman being into military men for the sole purpose of getting married. They think they've got it made...you know, free benefits, free housing, etc. Please. I see a LOT of them at the E-Club and other places frequented by military guys.
But damn, I really do have something for men in uniform.
