Quotes And Advice For A Military Girlfriend




After working on an Army base, I’ve met all kinds of Army significant others: Army wives, Army fiancees, Army girlfriends, Army divorcees. As part of my job, I had to brief all incoming Soldiers and families to the installation. I’ll always remember one girl in particular.
She came up to me after the brief and said out right… “I feel like I don’t belong here.”
“Why?” I asked.
“Because I’m just a girlfriend,” she said.
I looked at her and smiled.
I replied “You’re more than just a girlfriend. You are his love, his support, his foundation. He chose YOU to support him in one of the most difficult life experiences in the world: military life. He chose YOU because he knew you could handle it. He chose YOU because he’s on the way to choosing to spend the rest of his life with you.”
I meant every word… because I was that girl. I was “just the military girlfriend” then.
I’ll never forget when that Army girlfriend looked at me with a humble smile.
“Thank you,” she said.
I then saw the patch on her boyfriend’s arm… “infantry”.
I’m writing about myself today and what I faced in line dating my man,it wasn't easy until now that he's deployed not too far from home.
So for the Army Girlfriend, here is some advice and a few quotes to help you in this crazy journey.
  1. The relationship will not be easy. It will be hard. But if you can get through these tough times together, then the foundation for the future of your relationship will be that much stronger.
  2. A dependent card is just a laminated piece of paper. It doesn’t measure love or support or trust.
  3. Marriage is not something you just jump into. Anyone that tells you that you “have to” get married just because he’s in the military must not think very highly of marriage.
  4. There might not be a ring on your finger to symbolize your commitment but if you’re truly committed, do you really need one?
  5. Use this time to enjoy your love without worrying about the “business” of marriage.
  6. Some may call you foolish, crazy, or naive. “A successful woman is one that can build a strong foundation from the bricks that are thrown at her.”
  7. “You didn’t choose this life, you chose HIM”.
  8. You’re going on a life journey with another human being and that means compromise and sacrifice. But it also means love, companionship, trust, and mutual respect.
  9. You’re not giving your life up for him. Think of it this way “We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us.” -Joseph Campbell.
  10. True Love doesn’t mean being inseparable. it means being separated and nothing changes.”
Above all, you’re not “just” an Army girlfriend.

The G-whiz position you need to try in your next sex

Definition - What does  The G-Whiz Position  mean? 7 exercises for better orgasm The G-whiz is a variation of the missionary position, and an excellent way to stimulate a woman's G-spot. This position starts out just like the missionary position, with the woman lying on her back and the man kneeling between her thighs. Before entering her, however, the woman raises her legs and rests her calves on his shoulders. The G-whiz is also called The Anvil. Oajibola Explains  The G-Whiz Position One of the reasons this position can rock a woman's world is because it allows the penis to massage the G-spot, a small yet highly sensitive area on the front wall of the vagina. Because hard thrusting against the spot can be more uncomfortable than pleasurable, men should thrust gently at first by simply rocking. To give the woman more control in this position, she can place her feet on the front of the man's shoulders, which can help her adjust the speed and dep

What Are The Penalties For Public Nudity In Cities Around The World

Image
Most people are born without clothes on, but only a judge can decide if your body is offensive or not. Throughout history, how we perceive nudity has evolved, and slowly but surely, more and more governments have welcomed people to shed their clothes and show off their birthday suits. Relative to other laws, such as those public sex acts and indecent exposure, legislation against public nudity has been rather lax in western cultures, with many courts allowing citizens to feel the breeze between their knees without undesirable fabric getting in the way. Yet depending on location, views on nakedness and clothing in general can shift remarkably. The line between free expression and obscenity comes down to the courts. Police and judges can interpret the very loose terminology of "lewd," "obscene," or "indecent" in anyway they see fit, and that goes for public and private spaces. In some places, clothes are getting looser, in others they haven’t even begu
