My Fiance is at military training for the next two weeks. I miss him. What do i do to pass the time?

Not to be a *****, but two weeks is this hard for you? My husband is on a 13 month deployment to Iraq. He was home less than 6 months from the last deployment to Iraq. 2 weeks is not even a drop in a bucket.

I stay busy with school and my goals. If I sat and became depressed, it would be pathetic. You need to stay busy with writing letters, school, work or hobbies and keep things in perspective, 2 weeks in NOTHING.

There are plenty of provocative things you can do, but I thought you didn't want to do anything dirty. Oh you said proactive my bad. Well you could always volunteer at various places, such as animal shelters, soup kitchens, or maybe you could hit the gym. My wife actually took college courses while I was in Korea. You could adopt a pet. Learn to speak a new language... Rosetta Stone is always saying that that is fun. Take up swimming or biking. You could go to church, or any organization you like. Go hiking, learn to crotchet, make a quilt, or learn to sew. There are a lot of things you can do. If you tell me what city you are in I will add some links of things in your area that you can do to pass the time and be with others. You could also see if you have a military wife's association of some sort nearby, they often get together and do fundraisers, and chat. Good luck and I wish you the best of luck.

Friends? School? A job? Volunteering? Gosh, there are all sorts of things you could get into now that you have the opportunity to assert some independence. A huge mistake I see that military gf's/wives make is that they wrap their entire lives around their military husband/bf that they don't have a life of their own. Don't fall into that. You are your own person and have so much to offer.

That's not to say that you should ignore or forget aobut him while he is away. Letters are probably the #1 thing soldiers like to get. Write and let him know how proud you are of him, that you miss him and can't wait to see him again. DO NOT tell him negative things like you are depressed without him...he does not need that right now. He needs to hear you say strong positive things...which I know can be difficult because separations are always hard. But be strong for him.

Hmmm...I can sympathise with you, because I know how it is to miss someone so much, even if they're only gone two weeks. However, it is only two weeks, which is nothing. My boyfriend is deploying in November and will be gone a year....A YEAR. Try to imagine that, it might put things into perspective for you and make you realise that two weeks is no time at all.

My dad's been in the army for 22 years now. i'm now 24. confident, actual anticipate to circulate around lots. you need to get fortunate and finally end up staying at one task for 8 or greater years if he keeps re-enlisting there. yet you have got undesirable success and get despatched from task to task each 2 to 3 years or greater. the army places you the place they desire you. a minimum of now that your guy is becoming to be a member of the Iraq subject is slowly beginning as much as die down. My dad is on his 2d excursion there now. And in the experience that your guy is new exoect lots of obligations earlier each thing, CQ, workforce duty. They get the hot, low-rank adult males to do lots of the working. he will would desire to teach himself at his unit to get appreciate. what's his MOS? and you realize after common guidance he will would desire to circulate to AIT, suitable? The length of AIT relies upon on his MOS, must be everywhere from 6 weeks to a twelve months.

Go out after work with your friends to the club or what ever you do where you live.

There you will meet a guy and his name will be Jodie. Your fiance expects this because him and all of his friends will be talking about Jodie all the time.

Don't believe me? Then the next time you talk to your fiance tell him that Jodie is driving his car and see what response you get.

two weeks is not so bad...mine is gone for 4 months.. it sucks and i miss him so much.. what i found out is just write, write, write. it helps a lot.. what is he going for ? two weeks is not long. is that what he has left? hang in there

Find out whats going on for BOSS activities.......they do something at least once a week. ACS, soon you guys will be married and you should really get involved with these programs.

it is only 2 weeks wait till he goes on a 6 or 12 moth mission

Write him letter and spray them with your favorite perfume. I really liked the perfume letters... I treasured the ones with pictures of the misses playing in the yard with our kid.

But for yourself? Hell, I dunno. Remember what you use to do to have fun before you met him? Do that, cos you're gonna have a whole different life here soon.
