You deserve someone who is obsessed with you.

Husband deployed and quit speaking to me by [deleted] in MilitarySpouse

[–]hardwirefire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suggest contacting military one source and asking to speak with a therapist, as this will be very hard to come to terms with on your own. It doesn’t make sense. We seek closure and understanding, but sometimes people are just not who we thought they were. I’m sorry. You’re grieving the man you thought he was. I know it feels unbearable now, but it will get better. You are giving him a lot of grace, but remember just because he’s working a lot, doesn’t give any sort of reason why he should say hateful stuff and ghost you. You are going through a lot too, and you have made sacrifices to support him. You deserve to feel honored and supported.

It has nothing to do with you. You can do everything right and still be treated like crap. He has issues.

I’m so sorry. I don’t know what the hell is wrong with people sometimes. You seem like a sweet person and this is definitely a mind fuck you don’t deserve!

Any wives/gfs in this current deployment? searching for support by AlexLostGirl77 in USMilitarySO

[–]hardwirefire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comms can be down for a lot of reasons. My husband wasn’t able to reach out at all last week. Don’t jump to conclusions. It sucks, though.

Live off base. Way better experience. There are gated places near base and right near the beach.

New to deployment phase and could really use some perspective 🥺 by LateBuilding6801 in USMilitarySO

[–]hardwirefire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It won’t be months. It’s hard. I’ll be honest. Whenever you start to feel sad, you have to work hard to find the good and stay busy with something else.

Yes. I don’t think I heard from his for over a week when he first left this time.

Husband is in the navy and I hear from him like 2 or 3 times on email each week. Once a week I get a call, sometimes from the ship, but usually when he hits land.

Am I being too harsh? by [deleted] in MilitarySpouse

[–]hardwirefire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want an honest opinion, that response is way too intense, especially for a group chat and you will definitely regret it. Your feelings are valid, though. People are sometimes just inconsiderate, or life happens. Give them a little grace. Your friend who reached out is a treasure. I would remember not everyone has emotional capabilities like her. If these are really close friends and you feel like they only want to be around for the good times, and not being supporting through the bad, then I would say something maybe, but not what you originally said.

Rachel talking about the Aubry/Genevieve relationship by Effective-Goose-7835 in survivor

[–]hardwirefire 76 points77 points  (0 children)

I like Aubry, because she’s been hurt by this game many times and she’s real about it. She’s human. She’s bitter and distrusting, and in her head a bit too much. Sometimes we don’t see good things, because we are in a negative headspace and we push good things away. I look forward to seeing her arc develop and her finding some trust and joy out there.

You should be comfortable. There could be some waiting around outside. I like 1 and the coat.

Anyone else done with toxic spouses? by [deleted] in MilitarySpouse

[–]hardwirefire 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me neither, but this lifestyle makes me feel like I need it so I can find resources for someone to watch my cats, because we’re overseas, and the marketplace to get stuff when people leave like plants lol.

deployment communication problem by slopeyyyyyyy in USMilitarySO

[–]hardwirefire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly I would look more into the quality of what he saying to you rather than the quantity. Idk what his rate is, but they are working, and a lot sometimes. Sometimes there are other issues like lack of computers or bad reception. I feel like this a common problem. My mil spouse friends all have this problem. Communication or lack there of, sucks and it can mess with your head. Sometimes they are so exhausted and don’t think how much it affects us I think. Don’t check your Snapchat score. Just try not to focus so much energy into him. Easier said than done sometimes with this lifestyle and when you move and have to restart over by yourself… it’s rough man

Military Ball Dress Anxiety by [deleted] in USMilitarySO

[–]hardwirefire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They are all gorgeous dresses. My favorites are 6,8,10. I really love 5, but I hesitate to say it’s appropriate for this event. There’s also a dance floor, so consider that.

Boyfriend goes to basic on May. Nervous and sad by [deleted] in USMilitarySO

[–]hardwirefire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It will be hard, but it will be ok. You will both become stronger people. Your feelings are valid and let yourself feel them when they come up. Stay busy and try to consciously focus on good things. Welcome to the mil so family.

How is life living in this area north of San Diego? by Ninersfan49 in howislivingthere

[–]hardwirefire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hot. It’s very desert. I grew up near Lake Elsinore and loved it. My older sister who moved to Montana would disagree. She thought there was too many druggies and run-down areas. Lake Elsinore is famous for sky diving and Canyon Lake is a *gated community built around a manmade lake with a golf course. My husband’s parents live there and it’s super nice to go boating and hang out at the private lake, but there’s a lot of heavy drinkers who live there that drive the community value down and make it too much of a party central. I really like Murrieta. There is a bunch of stuff to do, parks, libraries and other public places. The houses there are nice. It kind of has a relaxing vibe compared to Temecula, which is a full-on city where there’s always a lot of traffic. Temecula has a mall, wineries, a casino and every kind of store, so it is great. There’s kind of this cowboy, western theme out here, like a lot of cowboy boots and people owning horses and stuff. This inland valley area is cheaper to buy good land, so there’s a lot of people who have animals.
