You know you are a Military Girlfriend when...
You know you are a Military Girlfriend when...
1..you don't mind a phone call waking you up at 4 a.m.
2...you tell people that ask that he's 'only' been gone a month.
3...the smallest contact (short email) from your man makes your entire week!
4...you cry over an email that says nothing more than hi and I miss you.
5...those recruitment commercials on TV make you cry because you are so proud!
6...you sleep in PT attire, cuddled up in a poncho liner, because it's the closest you can come to being with your military man.
7...you're sitting at home and you realize that you haven't talked to your boyfriend in over a month.
8...you get super excited just knowing that your boyfriend tried to call but wasn't able to get through.
9...you know your a military girlfriend when your favorite 'man' to see everyday is the MAILMAN (what a love/hate relationship that is).
10...you stop shaving above the knees.
11...a 30 second phone call after no calls from him for 3 months leaves you full of joy and happiness.
12..."No news is good news" becomes your motto.
13...you could wait forever for your loved one to return home into your arms.
14...you feel yourself growning more and more in love with your military man even while he's so far away.
15...planning letters/ care packages and putting them in the mail is more exciting then going out for a night on the town with the girls
16...you hold off on seeing certain movies so you can see them with your military man when he comes home
17...YOU WANT TO ROLL YOUR EYES WHEN YOU HEAR SOMEONE SAY, "i havent
seen my boyfriend in a week!". (AMEN!!!)
18....you can be go from being happy, to sad, to lonely, to angry, to proud, and back to happy in a matter of less than an hour.
19...you sleep with the phone right next to you, just in case
20...if he's deployed you don't care how your hair looks nor care about wearing make-up, and the people at your work ask about your boyfriend every day to see if you've heard from him
21...the sight of any other man in a uniform makes you miss your boyfriend MORE than it makes you drool.
22...you feel lucky for each second granted to the two of you.
23...you are 3000 miles apart and you dont notice the time difference and talk until 5 am his time 2am your time on a school night,
24...phone kisses are just as good as the real ones if not better
25...you realize you can forgive your bf for not calling you for a few weeks due to the fact he really had to work.
26...your cell phone shows 87 screens full of the number 2 for "repeat message" after you hear he left you a voice mail because you missed his first and only call so far!
27.... going 3-6 months without seeing your man seems like a drop in the bucket compared to what you have been through before.
28...you haven't heard from them in while and you find yourself reading the old letters you have received. its just something comforting to feel close to him in a way
29...you don't bat an eyelash when he say's "Uh, Honey they changed when I'm supposed to return home, yet again (for the 18th millionth time)"
30....when you find yourself inching closer to any guy who wears the same cologne as your man... it makes u feel as if he's right next to u...
31....You get excited and almost cry when you see the sticker from the branch he is in
