Please help me
Hi all, i hope this is how you start a new thread. Just need a bit of reassurance. My husband is away in 772 and i'm feeling so insecure. I feel as though my feelings for him are fadin. Is this normal? Please help. I'm desperate.

Re: Please help me
Bee everything that you are feeling is normal...when your loved ones are away it is difficult, you will get through it with the support of others in the same situation as yourself. How long have you been together Bee and do you have family close by for support? A big welcome to you and so glad you have posted

Re: Please help me
Hi all, no, i don't have any family and his are in Australia. Feel very low and alone. Have been married for 10 months, he's been away since the end march. Why do i feel like my feelings are fading? Everyone else seems to have magnified feelings

Re: Please help me
I am sure things are not as bad as you think...are you getting lots of contact? Do you keep yourself busy? I think we all have doubts at times and it is difficult for everyone who has been away from a loved one or any time...everyone will tell you the same I'm sure, how many is everyone Bee? They may just find it easier than what you are, you have been married such a short time and are still in the getting used to each other stage...A military life is hard and the tours don't make them any easier...draw support where you can  Elizabeth was a newly wed when her guy left on tour , his tour was extended too...you will get through it just be brave and take a look at those wedding pics when you feel low and remember the fun times

Re: Please help me
Hiya Bee and welcome to P43  Your feelings are perfectly normal hun , i have just done a 7 month tour with my hubby away and no R'N'R in there either so was the whole straight 7 months and at times i started to feel a little like that , especially when i fell ill with pneumonia for 6 weeks and he wasnt here to look after me. Absence does make the heart grow fonder but sometimes we all need a little re-assurance that things are ok and that the firs are still burning. My hubby and i have been married for a year and a half ( although been together years) and in our married life until he came back off tour 2 weeks ago the amount of time we had spent as a married couple in all that time was 12 weeks. Military life can be really tough at times and does make you question your feelings from time to time because of that , but the good things far out weigh the bad things . Try to think about all the happy days you have had together and why you both married and hold on to those feelings. Have you had much contact with your husband ?. We are all here for you xx

Re: Please help me
Thats a lovely gesture Linda....I am sure there are others looking in from your neck of the woods too Bee, we have loads of watchers and compared to our posters....they are all shy  though sure that they get support just seeing everyone else has similar problems

Re: Please help me
To be parted so soon after just being married is awful, and I sympathise with you, my husband of 43 year had 17 days in hospital recently, never ever been apart, and I felt so lost. Please keep busy, your men are just as much worried about you as you are about them, but they are doing a very important job and when on active duty only have one thing on there mind and thats to do what they are trained for. Please don't think they have forgotton you, because thats far from the truth, be patient and they will soon be home. If you are 'down come onto P43 and we will sort your probs out. x x |

Re: Please help me
hi bee, I know how you feel, i had very mixed feelings for the tour my b/f has just got back from, (about his millionth, but my first!!) at times i missed him so much, at other times i wondered if he was the person i should be with and found it a struggle to have anything to say in the daily ebluey's i sent him, i think it's a survival thing, when they are away for so long and you can feel a bit like you don't know them. Hope you work it out, everyone on here is so lovely, and full of great advice. Good luck. |
