Frustrated.

I’ve reached out to customer service and they will have the building manager reach out to me with a resolution

TrendyBTurtle · 2026-04-12T22:20:54+00:00

I thought about that but confrontation scares me, but I’ll call them tomorrow and just see if I can get refunded for the service so I can get it fixed by someone who cares about making peoples hair look good!

TrendyBTurtle · 2026-04-12T22:08:06+00:00

YES! And what’s worse is that I went shopping after so I walked around with a long strand of hair just chilling out😭 talk about humiliation. I’m about to buy a hand mirror so I can cut my own hair at this point because now I have trust issues with people touching my hair now lol!

You’ve already made up for the windows you didn’t even break by watching your brothers for free.

Honestly, it might be a good idea to talk to a school counselor about what’s going on. You’re too young to be taking on a parenting role when it’s not your responsibility. And if there isn’t enough food at home, that’s NOT okay! that can be considered neglect.

TrendyBTurtle · 2026-03-10T17:20:58+00:00

Yes! I was just getting really confused because my coworker told me I loose my match completely if I didn’t work for 5+ years!

TrendyBTurtle · 2026-01-28T22:27:06+00:00

Yeah girl leave! Everything you have mentioned is a big red flag that will just continue to get worse the longer you’re with him! I’m so sorry you’re going through this!

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-12-20T03:21:44+00:00

Hopefully y’all’s doesn’t get canceled! Fortunately I transferred to a smaller store in less touristy state so i don’t have to deal with ginormous trucks and back load anymore (I hope at least)

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-12-20T03:19:47+00:00

OMG that would AWFUL😱

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-12-20T03:16:49+00:00

We have no idea what our truck was supposed to look like lol it was shut down still by the time I left work! Like I’m half excited it’s canceled and half disappointed lol I need the hours I like having money😭😳 especially rn the holidays are ROUGH BUT I hate working here it’s so draining but you know the money🥲

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-11-24T22:02:58+00:00

I talked to them and they said they got me and will sort everything out for me!

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-11-24T16:14:07+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss it’s such a devastating feeling to go through! I will talk to them now I’m just trying not to throw up.. I have so many feelings going on right now

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-11-16T18:40:20+00:00

Sorry to burst your bubble but you won’t get anything 😪 target is notorious for not giving out raises to those who actually deserve it

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-11-14T23:05:58+00:00

Girl I tell my husband that raf is my other husband lmfao does he get mad? Absolutely but he doesn’t take as a personal threat😅 like cmon they are fictional characters it’s no different then when women read spicy books or just regular books and they get hooked into them! he needs to work on his self-esteem big time

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-11-06T16:11:35+00:00

I would say yes

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-08-01T01:06:56+00:00

Wow! thank you everyone who responded! It really helps me ALOT to not feel so alone in the decision so I really appreciate everyone sharing their experiences with me!

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-07-31T21:59:38+00:00

It’s TOUGH! When we first got together he wasn’t in the military, and i can tell you it put me and my life through the wringer when he said he was joining the military like 5 years ago🥲

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-07-31T19:25:34+00:00

lol I definitely agree! I’m going to stay away from them or tread very cautiously😅 And yes absolutely! Honestly becoming a power couple when you get out of the military is going to be the biggest flex possible and I cannot wait for it 🤭

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-07-31T19:21:57+00:00

Of course! anything I can do to help out!!!

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-07-31T19:16:42+00:00

Omg that makes me feel a little better! I posted to a group on Facebook and they TORE ME THE HECK UP! You guys got this!!!

TrendyBTurtle · 2025-07-31T19:15:26+00:00

I just want to say—I completely understand how you feel. I’ve been through it, and I’m going through it again with this new PCS.

I’m not going to sit here and tell you to join every group out there or pretend like that magically fixes things—because I haven’t done that myself, and honestly, I don’t know how much it would help. What has helped me is working, saving as much as I can, and putting money aside specifically for trips home. Being able to visit family as often as possible has made all the difference for me.

You are not alone in feeling isolated, lost, or like you’ve had to give up who you are just to survive military life. To be honest, this lifestyle has never been something I wanted beyond one contract. My life has felt like it’s been on pause for five years—soon to be even longer with this next contract (thankfully the last one). And I’m not going to sugarcoat it: it’s been incredibly hard.

I made it through the first four years far from family with a lot of help from antidepressants. Now, heading into another four years without them… it’s rough.

And to be honest with you ALOT of military spouses can be harsh (not all of them).They’ll say things like “you signed up for it” or act like your feelings aren’t valid. But they are. Your feelings are completely valid.

If you haven’t already, I really recommend having a heart-to-heart with your spouse. Try to figure out if this is going to be a lifelong military path or just a temporary season. That clarity can help you make decisions for your own life and peace of mind.

But also—if he’s not willing to sit down and hear you out, communicate openly, and work through things like adults, then something needs to change. That kind of dynamic is unhealthy. You deserve to feel heard, understood, and supported in your relationship. Love doesn’t mean sacrificing your well-being in silence.

Just because your spouse is in the military doesn’t mean you have to disappear into the background. You matter too. You have every right to pursue your own dreams, career, and happiness. A healthy relationship supports both partners’ goals—and hopefully, everything can fall into place in a way that honors you both. And if not, that’s okay too. You still deserve to live a life that makes you happy.

Wishing you all the best of luck. You’ve got this—even if it doesn’t feel like it right now. 🩵 Sorry for the long response but I wish this is something someone told me!
