[SIZE=1]hey i can totally compare to the situation, my boyfriend just left yesterday to the marines!!! hes going to bootcamp for 3 months, then hes gone for 4 years. But we are trying to work it out, he got my name tattooed on his left chest [over his heart] and i got his name tattooed, ..well i wont go there, but we committed ourselves, and i think this is a test in life, everything happens for a reason, and maybe this is a way to test our love, either way we both think we will make it in the end, its not like he is gone forever he is still alive. if you guys were meant to be then in the end it will be worth it. Just wait for his letter, you'll know if hes the one or not. Good luck[/SIZE]
