Welcome lady’s and gents , if you haven’t noticed the name of this blog is called The Good, The Bad and The Freaky. Lol yes the freaky! This is a blog dedicated 100% to sex, love and more sex. Not only will I be giving you the low down on my freaky escapades but some advice on the things I’ve encountered involving love and sex. So thanks for visiting my blog and I hope you enjoy!!
So previously I EXPOSED (haha) that I’ve gotten married. Now for you loving creatures, that isn’t a surprise. “People get married everyday foolish girl” is what I’m pretty sure a lot of you are thinking but nay nay. Your girl was not about that marriage life. I mean for what? For why? Why would I, ME, the sexiest mofo around (is what I tell myself, self confidence is THE best confidence) get married? Lets talk about feminism with a capital F that runs through my veins. Taking another mans last name, “serving & obeying” thy husband. I mean what the fuck. But then I met my husband & I didn’t have to uphold the normal standards of marriage because he was anything but normal LOL.
My husband believes in sharing the load of everything we do, except paying bills. I can stay at home & do nothing if that’s what I see fit. I guess what I’m trying to say is..there is wiggle room to be what I see fit. Be who I want to be. If I’m going through a hippie phase and feel like a bra was man made and a longtime ago our ancestors let their tits hang loose and be free. He’s there to support. Now that I have kind of painted an accurate picture of what my husband is in my life…let me fill you in on what’s troubling me as of late.
So, my husband is a military man. Which means he comes and goes with the wind. Leaving only minuet traces of his love and presence with me when he leaves. I have been holding down the household by myself now for nearly three months. Not long, aye. Well I have about four more fucking months to go and I am NOT doing well. I am stressed. Worried about him but also I have my mentally ill mother & two teenage siblings to look after- that live two states away, might I add. There is so much emotional baggage I have to carry & since he’s been gone I haven’t had adequate support. The military teaches soldiers how to cold, sarcastic and sometimes downright emotionless. *Side note* its crazy to think emotions can be numbed in so short time of frames.
Any who, I am extremely lonely. I got married and lost all my friends (wtf is up with that because apparently that’s common). I do everything alone which would have been fine if I wasn’t married. The point of getting married was not to be alone forever. Even though I’m new to this military spouse life, I am already feeling the affects. I am even getting acquainted with a new emotion : RESENTMENT. I resent that he signed up for the military, that HE decided to sign up for the army but somehow I & our future children will suffer too. The military life gives him a rush and a thrill but its turns me into a nervous fucking wreck. Always frustrated, missing him & a bit confused. I (may) talk to him once a week. At one point I was getting 3 minute phone calls after not hearing from him for weeks.
Its not his fault…I know but how could he be ok with it all. I know he cant do anything about it because he signed a contract. Therefore my husband is government property for the next three years. I love him and its only temporary but goddamn is it hard. My life is controlled by the military and my husbands military status. Did I say I don’t sleep at night? Well, I don’t anymore. I hate this shit. But, how can I not support him. It makes him happy. He’s so fucking happy there. All the incredible men he’s met and how much he has grown is crazy. I see the changes in him & unfortunately I’ve always had the gift of reading situations & being right.
Welp in this situation I see myself being here supporting him, loving him, drifting wherever his career takes me but not being able to get that support back. Also I notice I cant comfort him when it comes to the military stuff. He bonds with other soldiers and doesn’t really open up to me about it. When I went to visit him he literally sat on the side of me quiet but when one of the other soldiers came by he became the him I know. I am battling with this emotion, big time. I read so much shit on the internet about former army spouses and the divorce rate and it is horrifying. The shit I complain about is the norm. The divorce rate is high, the rate of infidelity is high. Honestly I feel as though if he ever cheated it definitely be with a woman in the military because she understands his plight better than I could ever. I don’t know. The resentment takes over me sometimes. I want to rebel against the thoughts but they are there, always lingering in the dark parts of my mind.
What’s love without resentment? Perfection. But whoever said perfection was possible in a relationship has never truly been in love.
