To talk or not talk?
My boyfriend is in the Air Force, he is getting deployed to Afghanistan next month. I am stressing out over this REALLY bad, not because I think our relationship will go down the toilet, we have a very strong stable relationship, but mostly because I am worried about him for obvious reasons. (Death, Injury, and especially how it will mentally affect him) He knows that I am upset (obviously) but I dont think he knows the extent of my stress, like losing sleep, nightmares etc. Websites I read basically tell me not to talk to him about it because it might "stress him out more". But that goes against my personal policy of talking to each other with the truth and telling each other exactly what we feel. So, what the heck do I do?

I agree you need to let him know. You guys are plannig to stay together right? keep in touch right? let him know that you love him and will miss him alot and that youll be waiting and expect him to not betray your relationship as friends and as a couple. hope this helps

you say that you have a strong relationship, so i think you should talk to him about it. be sure not to make it seem like you're trying to get him to stay though, because that would be where he would start stressing. just let him know how worried you are, and i bet you'll feel a lot better. im sure that along with being you're boyfriend, he's probably one of your best friends too. if im right about that, then you should just discuss open heartedly the whole situation. hopefully it wont stress him out that you are so worried. hope i helped. :)
p.s. my greatest sympathies to you and your bf. but without great men like yours, who knows where our country would be. and i thank him and all the troops like him for my feeling of safety. let him know that many are praying for him. and ill be adding him into my daily prayers. :)
