Sacrificing my pride as well as my emotions.
Here’s to love.
I would never do the same to you.
potatoskinscouldgetit asked: How do you like being in the military? I'm about to join and I'm worried about my queerness (not like I'm scared, it'll just be a new thing)
adjusttothewondrous asked: Thanks for the help! But wait, I'm confused on that first part you said; did you mean that you do get help when you're married, or you don't because you're LGBT? I didn't know if that was a typo or something, haha. Just clarify that for me if that's alright :) Do Guard members get deployed all over the country? Or just wherever? And I'm assuming you have no say...
It’s crazy to see this and know that I was in this exact spot just over a month ago asking my now fiance to marry me. Right on one of those little secrets, with a little ring drawn on and cute phrases all around it. Obviously, I got down on one knee and gave her a real one that she deserved. Just then, I saw this wonderful little sparkle in her eyes brighter than the most beautiful diamond...
cowabungabatman asked: how often do you get a chance to leave base?
adjusttothewondrous asked: Congrats on the engagement! How old are you by the way? And what part of the Armed Forces are you in? I plan on joining the National Guard, seeing that I can serve close to home and still work, which is ideal to me. But of course I know no matter what part of the AF you're in, you have a chance of being sent away. What are some good ways to kind of handle being apart? I think the hardest...
thecheckeredfool asked: I know. I told her basically that i know i'm not perfect but i'm gonna try my best. I have a semi steady income but i know what you mean. My mom and step dad met online to. He's from England so i've seen all this done before (and successfully might i add since they had their 10th anniversary this past summer). But i know first hand that it's super possible, that's...
cowabungabatman asked: if you are on facebook check out soul city sirens roller derby they have an event posted if you scroll down just a little bit
thecheckeredfool asked: Yeah i know. I sent a reply. You didn't get it? Tumblr must be eating my replies again :/ I was talking to her yesterday actually and she said everyone seems to make promises or like say they're gonna give her a better life and stuff. I said i don't blame her for not believing me and she doesn't have to until my feet are on her doorstep. I have 300 to my name currently. I...
whatyoufancy asked: lol. I figured that out like, right after I asked you. My dad was stationed there for almost 10 years, but we only lived on base for maybe 1. We lived in Gordon Terrace, and mom hated it, so we moved to Aiken. Been there ever since. lol.
