I called up to the unit and spoke with someone up there who said he tried to call multiple times and it was busy I don't just sit on the phone he told me it was somting wrong with the connection but it is amazing how when you called from a calling card it went through so it must have been something that he was doing wrong at your work just read your email Thanks Jinsey

Thanks

Jamie, I have to tell you that I have total admiration for all of the military guys and gals in Iraq and Afghanistan. That being said ... I think there must be so much pressure on the individual deployed .. just the time to think on the way there, not knowing what to expect .. not knowing what can happen to anyone around you. In the meanwhile, your wife is back in the states. I think the spouse also goes through a sort of denial period knowing that her husband could be in harm's way .. and is away for a number of months. She tries to go about her day .. get through her day .. not wanting to think how many more of those days are ahead of her. Probably going online here is also a way for her to feel a connection to you since you used to post here (and still do) frequently. It's like common ground and a place you both used to come to at the same time. This is not anything close to a comparison by any means, but when my husband takes long business trips, I find myself putting on the 24/7 news radio station that he always listens to, although I dislike it. It sort of makes me feel as if he is here. I know, weird. I think you need to give your wife the benefit of the doubt .. what she is saying could very well be 100% true. You both need to be close emotionally now, not apart. I know someone who has done 3 tours already. He and his wife just have total trust in one another. You have to have trust or all will be lost. Sorry to go on and on here .. just my 2 cents and thoughts, that's all. Stay strong .. and wifey, too. The homecoming will be like one you could never imagine. My thoughts are with you two. You're both great people.

But don't you think that CO is probably the reason Tower came out of the closet? I guess those Col hillbilly's have nothing better to do than rape their livestock.

Jamie, you're scared now about the relationship because you've been 'burned once' and now you're not home to keep an eye on things. Please don't dwell on things like that now. The relationship obviously got back to where it was and now you .. both of you .. need to be strong and support one another. I can tell you that distrust will eat you up without reason. Jinsey openly states here how much she misses you. I think that wouldn't even be mentioned to everyone here if it wasn't meant. Really. Being burned once is not fun, but everyone is human and mistakes can be made. Then, we have to accept the apology and give the other person the benefit of the doubt, accept the apology and go on with life. Please don't think now that you could never have trust becasue of that one time. I don't know the circumstances, but hopefully both of you can get past it. Keep an open mind and talk with one another .. even if it's by e-mail. Sometimes it's easier to write what is on your mind than to verbalize it. Keeping you guys in my prayers. Stay strong for one another .. Jamie and Jinsey .. you both need to support each other now. Jamie will be home soon and all will be well. Just my thoughts .. not wanting to bud in.
