To CAROL:
I resent your comments about my marriage. So get bent. Don't confuse yourself with Dr. Phil. You don't know me, my husband, or our families and you had/have no right to try and analyze our relationship. Money has never been a factor for either of us and your judgemental attitude is out of line. |

This is Heather from voice at school. I just want to say, I don't think it makes you any less of a military wife, the fact that your man is in the guard. My best girl's ex-husband was enlisted when they were married, and the first little bit, she lived here with her parents as she was very pregnant and on bedrest. The thing that I know for sure was the same as when she was living with her parents and when she finally got to live on base was that when he was sent over to Afghanistan and then Iraq, she was a mess, and from what I know, living on base was crappy because she said things were more expensive than off base, and they basically had to live as if they were on welfare.
I'm sorry people are giving you are hard time. Enlisted, or guard, doesn't matter to me. You're all in pain when you're loved one is gone over there. My friend whose father was in the guard, she was no more or less a military child when her father was at war than my best friend's child was when his father was enlisted. So, there's no way this makes you not a "real" military wife, you're husband being in the guard I mean.
I just want to say my prayers will be with you. And, I wonder about people who have no kind of support because they are not family or yet married. Remember Angela M.? Her boyfriend got sent over to Iraq for18 months yesterday.
Oh, and finally, I seriously doubt that you got married for the money, because the money is crap. Furthermore, to anyone who thinks you jumped the gun because you didn't see each other constantly or date forever before you got married, I have this to say - my mother's parents did not know each other for very long, and did not see each other all the time, in fact Pop asked Granny to marry him in a letter, they've been married for forty-some years; my father's parents were married while Papaw was on leave from WWII, and they hadn't known each other long, and Mamaw was on her way into surgery and she was only 16,him 17 or18 when they wed. You know what? After they had been married for 47 years, they would still get caught French kissing. She died 16 years ago, but he's still in love with her. And finally, my parent's got engaged after two weeks, married five months later, and today is their 29th wedding anniversary, and I have a 7 year old brother, so they still got it going on. You don't have to be together a certain length of time, nor be a certain age, to know you're in love with someone and ready to spend the rest of your life with them. Only she and her husband can know what they feel, so quit trying to judge them or their situation.
So don't give this girl on here a hard time about rushing in or marrying for money. I wasn't really close to her or anything, but I did go to school with her, was in several classes with her, and she does NOT strike me as the kind to marry for money. Back off! |
