A Day in the Life of a Military (Pre)Wife

As a military girlfriend of any branch it is always difficult because you can't just pick up and leave to go see your SO. Sometimes, you can but usually they have to ask for leave or time off, which they may not always get.


My day usually starts off with texting my boyfriend when I wake up 'Good morning. I hope you have a wonderful day' is the first text I send. He doesn't usually reply most of the day because he is 7 hours ahead of me. I usually send a few texts, selfies, and snaps throughout the day, letting him know I'm thinking about him.

I have classes starting at 10 am every day and get lunch and go to whatever appointments I have throughout the day. He is great with understanding I have homework and class work to study when my day  ends at 3.

After I finish eating and go lay down we talk until well after midnight, some nights we even FaceTime. We talk about our lives, whats happening, and making sure he knows he is loved. Then we get up the next day and do it all over again.

The weekends are different. Because I don't have school, we can talk more at night. The hard part of me is realizing he is in the Eastern Hemisphere so when I'm usually awake he is asleep. So my weekends consist of pjs, the couch, and movies usually. But if I stay up late texting Calvin, I don't usually wake up until late morning/early afternoon.

Whats a day in your life like? Any similarities? Differences?
