The shoe is on the other foot (ON, Canada)
Thanks so much for people replying to my question. 3 weeks is coming so fast and Im starting to feel a lot more confident that things are gonna work out. But now by bf is starting to get really nervous about going. He says that he just wants to be with me and doesnt want to loose me, but I know this is something he has always wanted to do and I dont want him to change his mind on his life long dream. How can I make him feel confident that Im not going anywhere. I tell him every day how much I love him and how proud of him I am. He just has a big heart and doesn’t want to go to the army and leave things behind…. :( Im running out of things to say!!!
In response to the submission, I just wanted to say that words can only make somebody feel confident for so long. In order for him to believe you, he’s going to have to see it. So throughout this process show him that you love him and you’re not going anywhere. Think about all the letters you can send him, the care packages, use little creative things as reminders of the love you guys have. There are moments of doubt where he’ll wonder if he made the right decision of joining the army. Let him know you will support with whatever decision he makes. - Jada
