The Horrible Feeling When.......

What decision to make when the person you love the most confesses to you that they are enlisting to the Marines. My question is how do the wifes and husbands of our Marines do it to face the truth and cruel reality that our loved ones are far from us and may or may not come back to us. How do they do it they turn on the news and there is news reports about our Marines dying or in danger. How? How? How? Well a couple months ago my boyfriend confessed to me that he was enlisting to the Marines and had already met with the SGTS. At first I took it all as a joke and didn't want to face the cruel truth and reality. But as days and months have passed things have gotten more serious and time is running by fast for his departure. I would never imagine this would happen to me. I never thought someone that I love would leave to war. It breaks my heart to even think about him leaving to war. Everytime I see commercials or anything related to the: War, Marines, Army, Navy, Airforce, I just break down into tears. How to family members that have their Marines fighting in war feel everytime they pick up the phone or turn on the news and all they see on the news is more more of our Marines dying in the war. How do they manage to break thru? I still can't face the reality that my boyfriend the one I love will be leaving pretty soon after my graduation. I just hope nothing will harm my Marine or any other Marines that are fighting for our country. These wars that we are fighting are useless and make no sense. Yes we are tried of war and it needs to end now. All we see fighting in our wars are our soliders but we never see Presidents going out to war and fighting for our country. Now I really feel what other families feel when our Marines and Army, Navy, and Air Force warriors leave to war and not knowing if we will ever have the chance to seeing them come home once again. I now know the feeling of having a huge knot in the stomache and throat and feeling a huge depression. My Respects To All Of Our Warriors In War.
