don't feel bad, bro. If I was at home I'd be doing the same thing. This deployment has been an emotional God send for me. You don't have that ability to distance yoursel physically and hence emotionally.
Talk about the mixed signal bus! Wow. "I want to date others for companionship"....."I WANT SOMEONE TO BRING JOY INTO MY LIFE DAILY?"
My friend......to put into 25th Infantry division terms: "THAT SEEMS LIKE AN INDIVIDUAL SOLDIER TASK TO ME"
I get so emotional over this stuff, because to me, it's such an easy fix, but...our vote is not the one that counts. It's like my W. saying to me the now infamouse line I share all the time: "Don't you want someone to knock your socks off?" WTF...22 years, 3 kids...keep your socks on!!!!!!!!!!!
I know you're frustrated. Where are you living now? How's the disjointed kid-juggling going? As I remember from lst fall...it su*ks.
Let her stew in it...Let her think......you focus on you...you continue to grow. Worry about you and your kids. Come here for second opinions..We're not always right, but it might give you some pause. Take care man!
