I think theres a point we all go through that. When my husband fist got to A school, I had major issues with the amount of time he dedicated to me. Along with the time he went out to the bar. It honestly took me time to realize he wasnt doing anything, its just wierd being apart. I think he realized how much it got to me once I sat him down and told him everything. Now before he goes out he always makes time for me whether its calling me up for a while, skyping or texting. It makes me feel tons better and I know he loves it too. It isn't a hassle to him anymore (even though i know he never seen it that way) I always thought he wasn't talking because it was too much of a hassle lol. He was in A school for 6 months and I'd say the first 3 months were trial and error and fighting. After its not perfect but I'm not hating our situation anymore. I know this sounds confusing lol but i'd sit down with your guys and just tell them whats up and ways to improve, dont yell just talk =] Worked for my guy and I

(AOwife) Sounds like u and I are in the same boat just a lil different.. I get a lil upset if he does text me when he wakes up or to tell me wat he is doing .. Sounds silly I know . But u see when he is home here with us wow he is just texting away.. So im like really must be real important huh !! He'll say o its my mom babe( she doesnt like me) U know wanting to no how its going since we have no facebook anymore.. Idk im sure its in my head to but I dont believe him sometimes and when im mad trust me it shows lol .. Its kinda I have trust issues too but mostly becuz of my past relationships its hard to put my mind to think that not all men are the same. Although he has had girls numbers in his phone in the past I havent gotten to the point yet to check his phone idk and then being here not doing anythong is boring and makes my mind wonder alot..

FTLW- That was amazing and very uplifting.  Thank you for that.  I'm having a really hard time "letting go" of him, but I am working on it and getting better ya know.  I just get so worried about silly stuff.  I guess in my relationship I have always been the "leader" so now that I am not I just do not know how to handle myself.  I just don't want to lose my mind so I'm glad I have all you ladies to turn to.

Illysha- Welcome glad to have you!!!!  I know it is hard, but you will hear something soon.  My hubby got to call home a lot actually I was surprised most of our convos were only 10 minutes, but we got a few 30 mins ones and then after battlestations we talked for like 2 hours.  It was awesome.  Like the other girls said every RDC which is there leaders trains each group differently so everyone has a different experience.  Write everyday and send one out everyday if you can.  They actually live for mail call!!!!  Good Luck!!!!

 

P-cola wife-  I personally think that if I would have stayed home I wouldn't know his schedule so well or at least think that I do, and I wouldn't expect so much out of him.  Does that make sense?  I mean we were already used to boot camp ya know call when I can.  It's different now that I am here I expect him to call me all the time which I know I should not, so when he actually doesn't call I automatically thing something is up or silly thoughts.  It is my mind playing tricks on me.  I promise I am not crazy we have just been through a lot in our 6 years together not always good things either so my gaurd is up a bit, but he is showing me that he is grown up now I just have to get used to the new life.  In other words I have a few trust issues that I need to get over. LOL  Also I believe we would have saved a ton of money had we just stayed home and relaxed.  Don't get me wrong now I enjoy every minute we spend together and we have done a lot of fun things together with our son.  I just should have looked at the big picture and not made decisions for the moment, but we live and learn.

It all depends on the rdc illysha. some don't even get phone calls until the "i'm a sailor" call. but phone call lengths can vary because if they get a phone call, they can have time taken away from it for individual or divisional reasons. So it could start out as a 30 minute phone call... then if they fail a test, they can lose minutes. Or if the division is behaving in a way that the RDC doesn't like, they can take away minutes. There is really no way to be able to tell, but you should get a letter this week!
