Hi everybody. This is a question for any NAVY girfriends/wives....my boyfrined is in the NAVY, well, at basic and sea school right now, and I know that it's going to keep us physically apart for stretches of time. I love him and I miss him, and just to clarify, I'm not going to leave him because I don't get to see him. Okay, so my question is, how do you girls stay SANE while your boys are gone? How do you get through the seperation? I love and want to marry my current boyfriend, and I know that it's just going to get worse from here,as far as being apart from him because of his career in the NAVY....so how do you do it?

Write letters to eachother, maybe you could take pictures of eachother and send them in the letters with cute random and funny things. (like brushing your teeth, making dinner,blowing a kiss,anything!) If they have computers over there maybe you guys could get webcam :D Show your support for him of course (:. I've heard theres support groups online for navy wives/girlfriends!I'm sure theres forums online-google it :). I agree with the people under me-keep busy. Friends,hobbies,jobs,anything you can think of that you might enjoy. it'll be hard but it'll just be that much better when he comes back to you.don't worry-though your not with eachother physically,if your love is strong you can get through this (=. hope i helped some!

Can he receive packages? I know that with the Canadian military, they can get packages once a week. A friend of mine looks all week for things she can send to her husband; chocolate bars, DVDs, PSP games, things like that.
Try to keep busy. Pick up a new hobby, or just surround yourself with friends as much as possible.
It's really hard, but it is so admirable that you are both doing your part in serving your country.
