My boyfriend left for the army not long a go, and I really miss him. I don’t know how to deal with this transition properly, so is there a site for girlfriends, like for forums or something? What are some ways I can stop missing him so much ! Thanks
I asked him if he wanted to break up for his best interest, he said no way in hell. I love my boyfriend a lot, no distance will change that, and I’m not leaving him.
Find a new BF, he won’t ever be around now. YOu’ll never see him, you won’t be able to talk to him for weeks or months on end. You’re going to break up with him sooner or later. Let the poor guy have his freedom.

While you are only his girlfriend, certainly some of the transition associated help listed for wives on: http://www.militarywives.com/ can help you as well.
My husband left for boot camp arch 4th and i miss him like crazy.
Google army wife chat or forums.
Keep your self busy.
cook.
Go hang out with friends.
Go to michaels or hobby life and get involved with crafts, they also have craft classes.
Remember that he will be back, and just look forward to it.
Make the best of it that you can and support him. Military life is not for everyone and it can be very stressful and hard to deal with. I dated my husband for 3 of the 4 years he was in the Navy. I was in Ohio and he was in Virginia. We talked everyday and he came home as often as he could. Often times, we would meet halfway for the weekend in Maryland to spend time with each other. I don’t know your specific situation or how far away from each other you are, but it can and does work, you have to trust each other. We went through times of not being able to see each or talk to each other and did go through a 6 month deployment. He just signed papers today to go navy reserves after being out for almost 2 and a half years and I am very proud of him. We’ve been together for 6 years, married for 3 years. Don’t listen to people who discourage you. He is doing something good for himself and his country.

i love this site.i am an army fiance dealing with a 15 month deployment now.and only 18days for him to visit home while he was over there.so i feel your pain.this site really helped me learn my future life and how to deal with things real life army wives go through.real life army wives,fiances,and girlfriends all are on this site,you should really join it.and question or concern you have about being a army girlfriend and the life of a army wife (cause u will be eventually),it can definitely answer or direct you to another site.the site is ran by a real life army wife that you can actually email and talk to one on one.
hope i helped out!!
Get a set schedule. Find hobbies and hang out with friends and family a lot. Don’t spend all of your time thinking about, thats a good way to go crazy. Write letters and make sure he knows you are behind him.
Aww yes there are plenty of websites out there for girlfriends and spouses. Theres no way to stop you from missing him as much. You just have to keep yourself busy. Come up with a new hobby. Spend time with friends and family. Also know that bootcamp is nothing compaired to a 15 month deployment. Make sure you are prepaired for this. Good luck!
find hobbies, etc spend time with friends. He will be back before you know it.
