I think of how lonely I feel without my spouse (he's my best friend too) for 2 weeks and I cannot fathom it long term. I often wish there was more I could do or say to make this better/easier for you.KTB_https://www.blogger.com/profile/11712416575948924008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5233529.post-55084566592236929332008-05-10T02:08:00.000-07:002008-05-10T02:08:00.000-07:00We widows call all those people DGI's - Don't Get ...We widows call all those people DGI's - Don't Get It. After my husband was killed I had a couple of people come up to me and tell me that their divorce was far worse than what I was going through - say what??? <BR/>I realize that person is still around and that can hurt, but at least you can feel anger about it. When I found out that my husband would never be coming home again all I could feel was a deep and lasting sorrow that still hasn't gone away after 3 years.<BR/>You stick to your guns girl...you are doing great and you will get through this! And tell TCB thank you from all of us!!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05793481366134109027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5233529.post-5990125515769070362008-05-09T04:44:00.000-07:002008-05-09T04:44:00.000-07:00I'm glad that TCB isn't in a combat zone.That said...I'm glad that TCB isn't in a combat zone.<BR/><BR/>That said, I cannot fathom ever -- EVER! -- telling somebody in your position to "quit whining," regardless of who or what "my" husband was doing... just being apart as newlyweds is unfair, sad, lonely, and painful... <BR/><BR/>I don't blame you for wanting to pick up socks. I would feel the same way.<BR/><BR/>Hang in there. I am sorry he can't come home on leave. :-(JessiferSeabshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02011040052433366321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5233529.post-81919419989748311762008-05-08T18:20:00.000-07:002008-05-08T18:20:00.000-07:00Good for you!

I think you're going to prove to the very next person who asks that you are quite capable of expressing your emotions!<BR/><BR/>I surely hope you didn't take my earlier comment about making a 'good list' as an attempt to minimize your pain. Unless trying to help -ease- your pain is the same thing. Then I'm guilty. But I think it's different and hope you agree.<BR/><BR/>I used to rebel against military wives saying only other military wives could understand. But, then, I heard it enough that I finally let my ego go and realized it's true. <BR/><BR/>I'm glad you have us to tell about ending up in a heap - it's good to tell someone. And I'm not bored or embarrassed for you. I think of it as an exercise in empathy.<BR/><BR/>The build up of anticipation just to have it dashed; it's just horrible and I'm so sorry. Please find something to look forward to, some little thing that you can control. I worry that you will become cynical about hope otherwise.<BR/><BR/>Now, in all seriousness, please tell me how your husband is doing. I want to hear.Minniepinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04222688387813336236noreply@blogger.com
