Military Long Distance Relationships – Separated by War

I started this blog with the hope that I could provide positive yet logical advice to couples who are struggling with a long distance relationship. I thought that being in a successful long distance relationship for more than 2 years meant that I knew something about making the distance work.

I mean my boyfriend and I have overcome many challenges and have somehow managed to keep going strong. I thought our challenges were really something. I mean we’re on opposite sides of the world, communication is difficult, and we go months without seeing each other.

Yet I recently came across a blog created by a military wife, and I was humbled. Her days are filled with trying to manage a household and raise 3 kids alone all the while wondering if her husband is safe. She describes going days without be able to communicate with her husband and the joy she feels when she finally hears his voice even for a few minutes. It made me realize that she is just one of thousands of spouses and partners out there trying to live life without knowing when their love will return.

Whether or not we agree with the war, I believe we are all grateful that there are people willing to sacrifice so much to keep us safe. It takes courage and strength to be a soldier, and it takes courage and strength to love and support a soldier and a family while your partner is away. I would like to dedicate this post to all the military wives, husbands, girlfriends, and boyfriends who are separated because of the war.

May you find courage in knowing that your partner is truly a hero. Just know that even heroes need support and that your love is what will guide them through the darkest of nights. May you find peace in the calls and letters you receive no matter how short they may be.

Stay strong and know that God never gives us more than we can handle. The stronger we are the more we are tested, but we all have a path to fulfill, and the struggles are part of the journey. And when your soldier finally returns home, may this challenge strengthen your relationship and remind you that though love can be painful, it is worth fighting for.

My prayers are with you.

  2. Thank you. I really liked this post, it means a lot to know that people out there support our troops and appreciate the sacrifices made :)
    And you are SO right - God doesn't give us anything that He knows we can't handle. So for now, it's one day at a time, one foot in front of the other and a whole lotta faith!

  3. Great post! Really appreciate you taking a moment to write this and show your appreciation and support of our troops. As I'm sure you've seen, there is a HUGE community of military spouses, girlfriends, etc. on blogger. So this was excellent and well said. We all just have to get through it one day at a time and our sacrifices don't take away from the fact that you too are far from your loved one! Glad ya'll decided to create a blog. It's wonderful!

  12. I was having a boyfriend. we had a 9months relationship, We were known for long time and we promised we will be together for ever but he has always had a drinking problem all his life.. because his drinking habit became so much this made us always have misunderstanding and I quarreled with him and humiliated and i made him realize that his bad habit was hurting me, I wanted him to change. i wanted him to be a good guy, i tried to change him but nothing was working out this made us to departed from each other, until one day i heard about a spell caster called Mr Robinson , i tried his love spell and definitely it worked out perfectly for me, it never took time for the spell to start working, after some few days my lover came to me and wanted us to start our relationship again, our lover is so tight now that nothing can brings us apart, and his drinking habit stopped entirely, this love spell from robinsonbuckler@yahoo. com is wonderful

  15. Hi, my girlfriend of a year had a bit broke up with me. She had kept how she was feeling smothered. I also felt smothered at times too but we didn’t communicate things properly and our relationship lacked the conversation piece because am a quiet person. She said she felt pressured in social situations because i wouldn’t be the most outgoing person. I very much loved her and need to get her back and my last chance was love spell. I entered on the website http://doctorokpamenpowerfulspelltemple.webs.com, because i read that he has a lot of positive feedback with his spells. I’m not disappointed because my lover came back to me within 24 hours after getting a love spell from the Doctor called Osemu Okpamen. We are happy couples now and if you need any kind of help, contact him via his website or Email here; doctorokpamenspelltemple@hotmail.com or whats-app +2348135254384. Michael Snapp, USA.

  16. Its no longer news that DR Zadson of EDUDUZADSONTEMPLE@YAHOO.COM is a man sent by God to help the lonely,oppressed,deserted and broken hearted. It was recently i saw comments of how this man helps restore lost love in a very short while and i have been depressed for long after i lost my husband to another. I made contact with him and i was told i will get results in 2 days but i actually didn't believe that as i have heard that from others whom i contacted and yet nothing but to my greatest surprise it all happened as promised and i could not hold this joy but resulted to this blog to talk about the goodness shown to me by Dr Zadson. If you are lost or confused worry no longer and contact Dr Zadson on eduduzadsontemple@yahoo.com he is god sent.?

  17. What else can i say rather than to thank Doctor Okpamen who God used to reunite my marriage. Each day of my life, i ask God to bless Dr. Okpamen for he has made my life complete by bringing back my husband to me and for this reason, i made a vow to my self that i will testify on the internet to let the world know that Dr. Okpamen is a God on Earth. My husband and i had a fight for three days which led to our divorce. On this faithful day, i came across a testimony of how Dr. Okpamen helped a lady in getting back her lover. So, i contacted him and explained to him and he told me that my days of sorrows are over that my husband will come back to me within 12 to 16 hours.. Could you believe it, my husband came home begging that he needs me back. Do you need any kind of help? Contact him now via email: ( Doctorokpamenspelltemple@hotmail.com ), call and whatsapp him via +2348135254384 OR for more confirmation call or text me on my cell# +1 (914) 517-3229. Becky Nolan USA.

  18. *HOW MY MARRIAGE WAS RESCUED BY THE POWERFUL WORK OF A GREAT SPIRITUALIST* I'M SO GRATEFUL TO HIM FOR HELPING ME!!!.

    I have been married for 10 years with 2 kids. I met my husband when I was just 14 years old in high school. We have been through thick and thin as well as many of life's major milestones through the years that we have been together. I still see that 17 year old hottie when I look at him all these years. We have had ups and downs, shouting matches, make up sex, and disagreements. But as we have approached midlife- something has changed in him.After being in relationship with him for years,he broke up with me, I did everything possible to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so much because of the love I have for him, I pleaded with him, I made promises but he refused.
    I explained my problem to someone i met on the internet and she suggested that I should rather contact a spiritualist, Dr Ehijator the great spirutualist and that he could help me cast a spell that will bring my husband back but I am the type that never believed in spell, I had no choice than to give contact him, I e-mailed the spell caster, and he told me there was no problem that everything will be okay before seven days, that my Ex will return to me after seven days, he made sacrifices and cast a spell and surprisingly in the seventh day, it was around 5pm,My ex called me, I was so surprised, I answered the call and all he said was that he was so sorry for everything that has happened,and that he wanted me to return to him, that he loves me so much. I was so happy and went to him, that was how we started living together happily again with our 2kids he abandoned with me. Since then, I have made promise that anybody I know that have a relationship problem, I would be of help to such person by referring him or her to the only geniune and powerful spell caster who helped me with my own problem.
    I advice strongly anyone with similar problems in his/her relationship or something different should without hesitation contact the geniune and powerful spiritualist through his Email: drehijatorspellhome@gmail.com

  21. Never met any hacker as discreet and fast like this WHITECOLLAR Hacker. He’s called WHITE and he has helped me in multiple ways first was when my ex wife cheated on me and now he’s helping me paying my credit cards debts plus he helped me gain access to my spouse phone remotely and I was able to use that against him in court. I must say he’s the best at what he do and I recommend him to the world. Email; WhitehatstechATgmailDOTcom , you can be sure to thank me later. I will keep on telling the world that he’s the best out there, I am very thankful because he gave me and my kids a second chance
