Just venting

Cristina
Hi everyone I'm Cristina, I'm 25, and I just wanna express myself how I'm feeling and what I'm going through. 
My wife and me meet 4 years ago in San Diego California. I was raised in San Diego pretty much my whole life, and she was stationed there and we meet in a gay club, go figure lol. We started dating and I found the love of my life, I can honestly say that she is the best human I've ever meet. She is the most kind, caring, loving, funny, beautiful, goofy...the list can go on and on. We got married November 5th 2014 and we were still living in San Diego. Since she's in the military, we got orders to move to the valley area, it's only a 5 hours drive from San Diego. I was very excited about the move being that before meeting her I had plans of moving out of San Diego and it is something I've always wanted to do. We found a beautiful home which made me more excited. With the move I had to leave my job and at the moment I'm a stay at home wife. I feel very lonely when my wife is not here, I try to keep myself busy, but there's so much house work and working out I can do. I try to text people back home and I get it they have lives too and are busy, but I've only been gone 3 weeks and the communication is less and less. Since she drove the movie truck and I drove one of our cars, right now we only have 1 car, so I can't really go any where. And it's so frustrating because I can't even take Bella (our dog) on walks without feeling safe because last time I did this big scary dog almost attaked us. I just want to stay positive and get out of this funk. I'm not sure if anyone will read this or not but if you do read this, I would really life to make a friend :)

Moving is stressful. But you need to give it a chance :)

I feel yea. I'm a navy veteran and now a navy wife. I haven't been living in my home state of California for years now and currently in Virginia. It gets hard being alone. My wife is on three section duty so home two days gone 24 hours. It gets old but I'm lucky I'm busy with school. Try to find work or school or anything. Last summer I chose to take school off and it was horrible. I get so restless but I did get really good at gardening and home improvement. We don't have a lot of friends out here but we have learned to make the best of it. I can't stand this state but there are great things about it. Once you get into the swing of things it will get better. And I also hate to be a downer but try not to rely on friends back home. It's hard for a long distance friendship. The good thing tho is once you go home to visit it's like you never left.

I feel you. My wife is firefighter and works 12 he says and sometimes picks up OT and works for 9 days in a row. When she is working so much she is a zombie of herself and I feel like she's not even here when she is home. I sorry about the car situation. Maybe you could drive her and pick her up sometimes? If kid that's possible, but it gives the two of you extra time together and you would have a car!!     Are there any groups or anything you could connect with to meet new people? Good luck! I know it's hard!! The things we do for the ones we love!
