writes:My boyfriend and i have been living together for almost a year, i've never been so in love. I'm in a rough spot right now because he is in the military and these past 6 months he's been on course, away for most of the time. He's supposed to be done at the end of the month but he just called me today and said that he was offered the chance to go on tour. Which is something that i know that he wants to do we have already talked about it and i said i would support him always, but i didn't think this is something we would have to face to sudden. It's in less than a month and i'm a wreck. I desperately want to be strong for him but i dont know how. How am i going to cope with this for the next year??

SassySashy is verified as being by the original poster of the questionThank you all so much for your replies. I'm not a religious person i've never really gone to church, but i've been re-evaluating everything this past little while and maybe i do need some spiritual guidance, it can't hurt, only make me stronger. Is there anything that you gals do to keep your mind of off of your guy, and the distance between you two while he's away? I would love to hear from ya:)

 Oh, I know how terrible you must feel! The best I can suggest is take deep breaths, and focus on your next step. Keep in contact with him in any way you can. My guy's in the military, too- we met out where he works. Now I've gone off to college, and we're apart. But we schedule dates whenever we can- "phone dates", with calling cards, so it's not so expensive, and we can talk as long as we want. Even if we're just humming and hawwing, at least we're on the line with each other!!Write him letters, ones with little details of life in it...Talk to him while he's here.It's okay to cry.And, if you're religious (which I hope you are, God comes in handy at times like these), then pray.
