so its been almost a month since i have given a real update...basically since October 20th I have been spendin most of my free time w/ this wonderful guy...Steve aka "Tuna" (from his last name lol) we have practically lived together/done everything together. so yeah, im pretty happy with this, having a great boyfriend and all the pluses that come with it. But there is some not so good news. In less than 24 hours, he will be getting off of his plane in North Carolina at Fort Bragg (where Rick and Joey are) for training, then going to Iraq...so for 508 days he will be gone :( He got the phone call and was pretty surprised, even though most of the guys from his AIT class were being deployed also. ugh this sucks so much. so we have been spending almost every waking moment with each other. I still have gone to all of my classes and everything, but I think about him leaving all the time. I hate to sound selfish, but why when I find someone that makes me sooo happy does he have to leave to fight this war?? why why why??? On a non-selfish note, I am thankfull for people like him that are willing to risk their lives for others and work for the bettering of this World. I just wish we had more time together--but I am left with only two choices 1) end the relationship right now and move on or 2) patiently wait out the next year and a half praying for his safetly, waiting right here for him....i think choice 2. i know its only been a month, but this is not like the others where its all wierd at first and the first two months are the same thing...we fall into place so perfectly.
now im goin to Psych class...then going back to Steve for dinner/the night...waking up at 3am and going to the Burlington Airport to kiss my soldier farewell. wow I am already a wreck :( this is not going to be easy
