What is your situation Daniel, re the AirForce (it is still Don't Ask Don't Tell, isn't it?) and re boyfriends etc... have you got a private life or are you just waiting to get out to be able to start afresh?
Who else knows apart from us? Your family? Your friends?
Just thought I'd ask a few personal questions as I am wont, and see how we can help you or uphold you while you finish your time.
Good luck, and yes hope your Thanksgiving day was awesome. mile:
DaDt is a big part of why I hate being in. I feel sort of hopeless because there is no one that I can talk to (who is also in) about it. There are other factors as well....long story short my entire time in so far (4 years) have been a complete waste of time and money. I had one of the longest and most difficult training pipelines in the entire Department of Defense (2ish years), which at the time, I was legitimately excited for. When I finished and was sent to my first base, I sat around for 2 years only to be told I wouldn't be doing what I trained for. It is just one big disappointment, but like I said, I try to stay optimistic because the pay isin't bad, and even though it seems like I have a lifetime left, it really isint a lot of time when you look at the grand scope of things.
I havent told anyone...I was gonna tell my sis over Thanksgiving, but I never really got any alone time with her. As far as boyfriends go, I will be deploying here soon and I can't really commit to anything as much as I would like to (no matter how secretive I would have to keep it). I have a very shy personality, plus the fact that I can't be seen in a compromising situation in public sorta makes the situation that much more difficult.
