My boyfriend leaves for 2 weeks today, he works on the oilfield, honestly I don't know how he does it, we kissed good bye, I'm trying not to cry because he'd probably stay home. We've been looking at other jobs that would equal working in the oilfield, or better so he can come home home every night. I love him so much I don't know what I would do without him, I appreciate him so much and he knows this, it's hard being away from each other for 2 weeks at a time but the 2 weeks off is worth it, the first hug when you see each other is so refreshing, I can feel all the stress leave his body cause he's home, I love the first hug so much. Anyone else have a boyfriend/husband that has to leave home for a long time for work?
