Today, it dawned on me that I've been married for 6 months, but because of the Army I've spent only around 12 days total with my wife. FML

Last time I checked, we were free before we were in this war. We actually invaded THEM. Not to say I don't have respect for the troops, but we are fighting in a war that isn't ours. And for my pre-determined response to the people that will ramble on about how they attacked us first: Not one Iraqi has ever killed any of our people on our soil. 9/11 was mainly Saudi Arabians. As for OP, I'm terribly sorry for you. I don't think your life is fuckable, nor do you deserve it at all. You have a wife that loves you enough to stick by you for long periods at a time without seeing you. Be happy you have her, she sounds like a great girl.

So this guy is crazy about me, but we haven't ever been on a date because he went to the marines before he contacted me again. He was supposed to come back in June but it was postponed till August. So I know how that sucks for you. Hopefully things will get better. (I support you for being in the Army, btw)

You're the jerk that joined the Army.

Did you marry her for the extra 1000/month?

that doesn't happen, you get that one time when you first get married.

To #64, it does happen. Every month. They get paid more monthly because now they have someone else to support.

Too bad... We really should get out of the middle east. It's causing shut like this

Hey, at least she hasn't cheated on you and stolen your money which happened to a soldier in another FML. Hope you get to see her soon!

dude I'm in the same boat. married almost 2 months seen him 9 days. at 6 months it'll be 13. I know everyones entitled to their own opinion but it does blow! you picked the job not the distance.

FYL, and thank you for your service. The people who are saying YDI because you're in the army are just ungrateful maggots who don't deserve to breathe the free air we enjoy in this country. Take pride in what you do, I'm sure your wife does.

How many downvotes does it take to hide a comment? I ask because I cannot imagine #30 got many downvotes. Everything he said was correct, well put, and without malice. Now let's see how long it takes before this comment is hidden as well.

Oh and not EVERYONE IS FROM THE USA YOU IGNORANT FOOL! If I can insult the British asswipe that dragged us into that war,damn well I can insult your ignorant president and troops who decided to indulge the spoilt son of a bitch(and yes Barbara Bush has been known to make elitist bitchy comments)

that's one reason why my boyfriend is leaving. neither of us can deal with it. I'm sorry. hopefully you can make it through your contract sane, and still have a relationship.

Aawww :( I hope it gets better and you get to see her more often ... I toatally support you being in the army!

That sucks. Though, did you not know her until you married her? She's the same person she was before you exchanged vows, so I'm hoping you've spent more than twelve days with this woman.
