You know the one thing ive learnt in a long distance/military relationship?
Is that when shit hits the fan & hes away, you have to be strong.
Sometimes you just don’t have the option to tell your man whats happening back at home, sometimes he doesn’t have the choice to tell you whats happening with him either. You both just have to deal.
And I don’t mean the type of strong where you take a few deep breaths & go about your day.
No, im talking about the gut-wrenching, sobbing-in-the-shower, crying - yourself-to-sleep, but still get up in the morning and continue on with life type of strong.
The type of strong where you can feel your heart being torn, the type od strong where all you need is HIS hug but instead you pick up his call and say, “im okay. How are you baby?”
Sometimes this can go on for weeks, maybe even months.
Thats what I’ve learnt …. sometimes you don’t know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have ♥
