Congrats guys, anyone that's been married know's it isn't easy! Especially at such a young age! I think a large part of what separates young couples are that they grow in different directions, they have grow into themselves and find that they have different goals from what they originally had.  I hope I'm still there in 10 years. I moved in with my in-laws on my five year anniversary this year. He sent me some flowers form Afghanistan, but when he's deployed we always wait to celebrate until he gets home, or we do it before he leaves, depending on which is closer. (He's been gone a few of the anniversaries.) Whoa, hang on, are you saying your husband is deployed or has been deployed recently??? My heart goes out to you both and I think you should create a thread for military spouses dealing with deployment. I couldn't imagine being away from my Jenny for any amount of days, let alone a full tour of duty.  |

Congratulations to both of you!
It's quite a milestone.
My wife and I are hitting 15 years as well in Sept.
It looks like a good year here at US.

He's deployed currently, but this is his 3rd combat deployment (our second as married) and we've been together for three deployments. One was a non combat deployment. The thing that a lot of people don't know about military is that they leave for training (states away from spouses.) on a regular basis as well. There's a lot more time apart than people realize. My husband and I are a great long distance couple though... we struggle more at home. haha |

My entire 17 year marriage was as a military family. Being an infantryman in a rapid deployment unit, I was gone a lot. There were times that I'd get a mobilization call in the middle of the night, and within two hours was on a plane. These were training scenarios to help us mobilize faster in case of emergency, but I'd be gone for a few days at least. I remember one year, I was only home for about 34 days. Non consecutively.
The life of a military family is rough. Those who make it through are exceptionally strong. Like Krys said earlier though, the major problem with those who don't make it from an early age is because they grow apart instead of together.
Ultra, it sounds like you guys are going strong. Whatever magic mojo you are working, you keep it up!!

The thing that a lot of people don't know about military is that they leave for training (states away from spouses.) on a regular basis as well. There's a lot more time apart than people realize.
This was one reason why I got out of the Marine Corps... I knew I wasn't able to devote enough time to my marriage... There was actually a couple of times I blew my command off because my wife needed me more. My motto was if I'm in a combat zone work comes first. If I'm stateside, family comes first. There's a balance to be achieved, and unfortunately the military isn't very good at allowing for that. Congrats Ultra! Dude 15 years is an awesome anniversary to have, not to mention you celebrated it perfectly. Really can't say congrats enough. Beside every great man is an even greater woman. Mine happens to be punching me in the kidneys often for being a smart alec.  I love my fiery Mandalorian woman. |

See I followed the wrong advice the first time and married a dark sith witch who tried to suck my soul out for the next 16yrs...finally I exorcized her to what ever hell she came from and married my Jedi Lady...that one has been a see saw of passion and related since 2001...good times good times.
Lol

I'm a sith... I don't try to suck out my husbands soul. ...that we know of! lol kidding...there are grades of evil and corruption...my former sith witch was without a doubt just slightly less evil than ol' pruneface...I just wish I could have thrown her down a power shaft  ***** But it all comes full circle...I dealt with that one to find the one I should have been with...so in the end it all washes out |
