I have a fiance that travels for work, on the 14th of this month he will be gone for 10 days. The first time he left I cried like a baby, but this was because this was the first time that we had been apart for more than one night in 3 years. It is hard to see him go, but I understand now that he will be back and I will be able to talk to him everyday. It is especially hard this time though because we are getting married on the 17th of May, and it seems that nothing is done for our wedding. I feel guilty because I know that there are men and women overseas fighting and they don't get to speak with their loved ones the way I do mine. My question is this, Who has loved ones that travel, are overseas, etc? and how do they handle them being gone.....?

Like you my spouse works abroad. The first time he left i cried for two whole days. But it has gotten easier we talk to each other everyday and he visits every other weekend.But it's hard and i have'nt quit adjusted to him being gone.. but he'll be back soon for good.And i'm looking forward to him being home.

HI there!I know when you have your boyfriend or your fiance moving out of the town or your country and you have to handle all on your own it does get to you.I know how hard it was for me when my boyfriend moved out of the country for his further studies.I cried and fought with him because I didnt want to go away from him.But then things happen and we're still together but haven't seen each other in person since last 8 months.So i'll say that you're really lucky that he just moved out for 10 days.Just try to keep yourself busy and occupied and do your part of fixing teh wedding like calling the florists,getting the band to play,have a meeting with caterer..this way when he's back instead of running for the errands you will egt to spend more time with him.
All teh best for you life together!!

I am so sorry that you have not got to see him in 8 months but that things are still strong going for you. That would be so hard. You have more dedication than most people I know.. When does he get back? I hope you stay blessed with this relationship. And thanks for the advice.
