Girlfriends, Fiances,and Wives of Sailors

For anyone with a sailor graduating 9/28, only two weeks left till we get to see our men!! :D

I'm beyond excited at this point lol

Probably just a dress with a cardigan

Awww doesnt it feel so amazing to be so close ladies! My SR actually graduates next Friday, 9/21...I've got butterflies! I'll be sure to let everyone know how PIR goes!

You're so lucky! Have fun!!

Trust me, 9/28 will be here before you know it! It seems like last friday was just yesterday, lol I was jumping up and down saying "only two more weeks" and next thing I know, I have a week left! I hope you have fun also! What div is your SR?

He's in 820

Oh, thats one of the special divisions right? I cant remember what for though...what's his job?

He's got a SEAL contract.

Proudgirlfriend: I'm happy for you two if you do end up getting engaged, congrats

I think i heard the 800's are special ops..

I heard that we can't either, but I've also heard that some people still have

Oh ok, that's what I thought! Very cool, you must be so proud. My SR is in 945, a performance division, so I was able to get a sneak peek of him when RTC posted pics of them performing at last Friday's PIR :)

That must have been nice, so is he as excited to be done with bootcamp as you are??

Lol very! I recieve what will probably be my last letter from him today...he can't wait. Our first anniversay is actually 2 days prior to PIR! So he gets done just in time to still celebrate it when I go to see him! :)

Proudgirlfriend: Im pretty sure that's true! Of course that wont stop me from trying though...I'll let you ladies know if I get away with it! LOL

Celebrating is always nice on special occasions like that, congrats to you two too

Thank you very much! I sent him a special card today, hopefully it will get there on the exact day of our anniversary, 9/19...Im hoping I will have already received the "Im a Sailor" call by then so I can also say happy anniversary over the phone! we were both pretty disappointed that we wont be together that day! But two days isn't long to wait!

Are you going to Chicago too with his family?

Yes I am! :) I'm flying there alone, but his parents are picking me up from the airport.

So you can't kiss him the first time you see him during PIR??

Hello Ladies!  I know you are all excited to see your Sailors....Here is a list of things you should know when your Man is in Uniform:  http://www.veteransunited.com/spouse/11-in-uniform-rules-every-mili...

Hope everyone enjoys PIR!

Well I will have to get used to it I'm always like hey I'll be back kiss see you later kiss hurry back kiss have a good day at work kiss.I kiss him anytime he leaves the room.lol.It will be weird not just doing it when we want.We don't like makeout in public but we hold hands and he puts his arms around me I am gonna miss that he'll have to it a lot more around the house!

Oh and how much time will we have with him between everything though??Not enough probe.Hebe.

When my fiance is in uniform, our rule of thumb is to always act like his CO is watching when in public.  You never know who is actually watching, whether you're on or off base.

And taracotta, it all depends on your SR's orders.  Do you know where he's going after RTC? 

"When he knew there weren't any Navy people around"... that's cute.  He may think he can sopt the sailors by their haircuts, but female sailors are harder to spot in civvies.  And yes, I have corrected sailors.  The girls in Disneyland bathroom making their uniforms "cute".  The guys in a diner with their ties loosened and sleeves rolled up (older uniforms).  Three female petty officers and these guys were trying to impress us by saying they were learning how to "drive boats" and practiced on the lake. Uh-huh.

You really can't tell who is military and who is not.  Just don't hold hands, okay?

hello everyone =) Im a new navy fiance. my fiance left 9/11 anyone else??

anndrya, my husband left on the 10th,

Anndrya- um kinda. my husband managed to sneak a small note that he put in his shoe when he packed his box to send back. and that really cheered me up. now i'm just waiting for the form letter so i can send his letters. i have been writing everyday. how about you?

we will be moving to SC after BC for his A school.Iwas just wondering how that works we have the PIR ceremony then he takes a while to check out then you get him all night or until curfew???If he leaves monaday can you see him sun??

Anndrya- yes the busy days are not so bad. i haven't had a day where i didn't cry yet, but everyday i am crying a little bit less each day. i probably sound like a big baby but i can't really control it at this point. haha. there is so much going on and i hate that i don't have him to lean on right now. my husband is a future mm. what is your fiance?

Anndrya- yes, that's when it is the hardest. for our cat too, she hates it that he's gone and i think she realizes how sad i am because she cuddles and falls asleep with me now. which she never used to do.

Anndrya, it is so hard. we both had jobs that we could constantly text each other so we always would, and then 5 weeks before he left he quit his job and we had spent so much time together, i knew it would be hard, and i know he didn't die, but going from that much to contact to none at all is killer.

There are a few rules during PIR that really should be followed. There have been cases of sailors out and about celebrating with family and got caught by superiors in civis. Do not risk this because the punishment could be loss of time out during PIR. It's not worth trying to get away with it I swear. And honestly, walking escort style was pretty sweet =), and my Sailor loved it (though he still held my hand when it was safe to do so at the hotel). And, one thing I found, not being able to do some stuff right off the bat as far as PDA goes just creates a buildup for when you get out of public eyes. I was with family so don't think too crazy here ladies ;) but the doors closed and we all were just hugging him long as we wanted, I kissed him a ton, held hands amidst a lot of laughter and fun. It's worth it to go along with the rules. They will tell you the PIR rules as soon as they learn them, but I researched it early on lol. You can kiss them when you see them at the ceremony but it needs to be clean. Clean like closed mouth kisses, pecks. When I first saw my sailor I couldn't not kiss him, but we kept it short simple and sweet, and it really meant so much just to be able to get that after not even seeing each other for so long.

I have a cat too and he was looking for him and meowing for like two weeks then he kinda did it less and less we cuddle every night and he is attacking my feet as I type this he is my best friend and I don't know how I would make it without him.LOL.

A little frustrated:  It sucks that I can't be at my fiance's graduation from A-school tomorrow.  No money to fly down, and couldn't get off work.  :(  Oh well.  There will be other opportunities for me to be with him for other events.
