 Re: Okay, here goes!
Lusty,
We are in a simular situation, though it has not progressed as far down the attachment road as your relationship has because we have not allowed it to go that far. The reason for this is that we knew that in the relatively near future we would be parting ways and they would be moving West, and we will be moving South. Though it could have very easily gotten out of control. Something that would have been wonderful, but would have made the parting more difficult than it will be.
The other thing that is hanging out there in the back of your mind is that a PCS is coming down the road. Either the other couple could be transfered, or if you are also a military family, you could be transfered. And that day is looming out there somewhere.
One of the things that I love about my military service is the close connection that I have with those that I have served with. We can be thousands of miles apart for years and when we meet we will pick up like we had just had a long weekend.
Love is always a good thing, and parting is always sweet sorrow. But there may never be another tomorrow for any one of us. Do not waste the day, love to the fullest.
