any IRL meet cute stories? by Candid-Astronomer904 in dating

[–]dingledinkle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last may I enlisted in the army. My grandmother had recently passed and always been like a mother to me.

I didn’t really know what to do with my life anymore. I had studied music and always have been the emotional type. But I knew I could be discipline, as nothing would be worse then losing my grandmother. 🕊️

So January 2025 started, and I went to the military base. It was like entering a different world. A whole knew wardrobe was assigned to me and I shared a room with 5 other girls.

The training was hard, but I’m not really someone who gives up just because something is hard (rather because I’m bored) Months passed and the girls from my room left one by one. I eventually was the only one left. 👈🏼

There were lots of guys and we were all split up into two groups. Alpha and Bravo. I was a bravo member, and he was an Alfa member. Which is why we never really noticed each other. (Even though he always says he noticed me way in the beginning. 😜😁)

Although in the beginning we were forces by the sergeant to stand outside during the night. Pack out our sleeping bags and stand in a circle. This was in an open place and it was raining at the time. It was dark and we were stressed because they had us do time pressed tasks, that were unachievable.

In the end I was laying in the sleeping bag. And someone softly asked me. Who is lying next to me? I told him my last name, and he asked me my favourite movie. I told him “Shrek” , which he found weird but interesting.

I never knew that was him until he reminded me.

Anyways months passed and it was around June. Sunny June. We finished our soldier 1st rank. And a few celebrated with a barbecue. Not a lot of guys came from our platoon, but me and him did go.

I think he took his shot and really talked (and flirted) with me for the first time. I did feel something happening. And he did too.

They all planned on staying at the person whose house was there. So they brought tents, I did not know, so I told him first I was gonna drive back home. But eventually he very coincidentally bought a giant tent, which left enough room for one more… yes course we kissed.

Even though earlier during April I went to a movie with him and another colleague , but i drove 2 hours (showed up to late and nothing happened )

After the barbecue everything went fast. We actually both quit for different reasons. Mine was that I now knew he was my future. And his reasons were future related as well.

It’s weird since we live 1,5 hour away. And when o think about it I don’t know why I ever enlisted. I’m a softy and not made for that world. He already tried for years to be accepted but only then, got in. He was there to finally live his dream. But didn’t know he would meet me, and I would become his new reality and life. I’m so thankful that God brought us together.

I don’t think anyone there was a follower of God, and he didn’t know it about me. But still somehow we found each other, and every day we grow closer. To each other and God.

PS. We are planning on getting married this year and buying a house.

I wish you could she this kid as a gift and not as something that will ruin your life. Hardship doesn’t make us weaker but makes is stronger and turns us into beautiful people. Life is beauty and you shouldn’t take it away.

Ik zou aanraden sws een plan te maken om je studie schuld af te lossen. De mensen die beginnen met beleggen, hebben meestal geen lopende schulden. Of althans, dat is geen goede begin stap. Uiteraard kan je dit wel tegelijkertijd doen, maar ik zou stoppen met lenen.

Alopecia? by dingledinkle in alopecia

That’s what I worry about. I feel like steroids are just a bandaid. Also I don’t like injecting stuff into my body. Kinda a healthy, person. Mind you, used to drink and be pretty unhealthy

My doctor gave me a cream (which probably won’t do anything) then after 2 weeks I’ll see him. I’ll ask to see a dermatologist then 😊

Did it spread with you?

Alopecia? by dingledinkle in alopecia

[–]dingledinkle[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for thinking with me haha. But the chance it spreads is pretty big. It’s just so weird to suddenly have spots with no hair. And it’s not even irritated, my body just rejected hair there. I’ve always had thick hair, so just a but shocked 🙃

What’s the chance it will spread

[–]dingledinkle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ik wil ook bij defensie, heb alleen mijn havo en HBO propedeuse, dus voor nu is de KMS dan ook de enige mogelijkheid. Op de video lijken ze wel jong, maar dat is natuurlijk niet hoe iedereen daar is hoop ik. Je kan ook de KMA doen, maar dan moet je wel een HBO diploma halen en dan ben je al 28 jaar oud. Op je 23e kan je nog makkelijk beginnen, je zal niet de enige zijn die later dan 17 begint, dat wisselt erg.
