My husband is in basic training. ft benning. any advice on how to keep our relationship close from so far away?

we were only married for 2-3 weeks before he left and i'm just worried that our relationship will change with him being gone so much right off the bat.My husband is in basic training. ft benning. any advice on how to keep our relationship close from so far away?
being honest, talk about the fact that your seperation brings up a whole set of unknown and unexperienced feelings, emotions and physical responsibilities. It will take work to understand the inpacts and or effects this will place on each of you as individuals. Link those individual feelings into what you share as a couple. One person doing the work will not accomplish what needs to be done by the non-complying spouse. There are services available that can assist you in the new circumstances that your relationship will begin to experience. Do not take it lightly, be there for one another and talk, call, write letters and support one another, listen to what you both are saying. If you can not figure it out, ask someone, The ony stupid question is the one you have not asked.My husband is in basic training. ft benning. any advice on how to keep our relationship close from so far away?
The only thing you can do at this time is write letters and wait to get phone calls (which will be very few and limited).





You were together for awhile before getting married.





No matter what relationships change. If you both have similar goals on where you want to go in life you should be fine. Just remember now the military comes first.





Any successful relationship will have trust, compromise, commitment and communication.
Don't cheat on him and write him a letter every few days, keep him informed about things that are going on at home.





Don't get upset if he doesn't respond right away as his only free time will probably be on Sunday.





Realize that he's not there picking up chicks, he is there in TRAINING for a military career and it is not a joke.





Make sure you keep in touch with his parents and join them when they go down for his graduation.





Chin up! You'll be back together soon. :-)
He is not in a position to cheat on you, and will expect the same from you. Write to him. Not much else you can do.
be their for him. He is going to be beat mentally and physically offer your love and support. Write him letters send him pics. When he calls tell him how much you love him. Its the little things that mean the most
I wouldn't worry about basic, I'd worry about the few weeks after when he has free time on base. Military people cheat and so do their spouses. I bet if a poll was taken over 80% would be cheaters. Have fun with it.
Write lots of letters to him, and pick up if he calls! He'll be so happy to see you when he graduates, you'll forget all your concerns.
Best advice, Sit back, relax and try not to worry.





Write letters once you get his address and just be supportive.





Other than that.. Can't do a whole lot right now..
