Gone For War
« on: July 28, 2008, 09:55 PM »

I was reading through one topic in the romance section 'Husband Abroad For Three Year Study Programme?' and one person mentioned something about husbands going to war. How would you feel if your husband/wife decided to take part in a war as a soldier? Would you agree to it and how would you feel? Please kindly give your opinions on this matter, thankyou. Smiley

Are you serious? With all the bullets roaming around etc, I'm not talking about paintball o, this is the real thing  Undecided
As in your life is at stake, I'm sure that she will constantly be thinking about your well being and dreading the thought of one day receiving a phone call from the army about your death, God forbid such bad thing, it is only natural for her to worry about such things

Well, I guess it's always good to be optimistic, but reality is important also

Wouldn't want to get involved with someone who thinks fighting for a country is always idiotic.

For some of us, fighting for your country is an heroic act of patriotism.

@post
If my husband wanting to join in on the war on terror, then i would cry from the moment he let it slip out of his tongue. I know too many people who came back from war hurt physically, emotionally, and mentally. I mean how could he do that such a thing to me? leave me at home worrying about him day and night. wondering that the next morning i might get news that he was hurt, captured, or killed!! I wouldn't be able to hold it down on my own knowing that my husband is out there doing God knows what. So if he wanted to go to war, i would take it as, he either has to choose his family, or his country.

It's not even the fact that the person could die

Have you seen how mentally damaged some of these people are? Nightmares? PTS? It's so depressing

and what do they have to show for all that? A stupid purple heart badge.

Come to the city and see these "veterans" begging on the street with their badges and half their limbs blown off.

don't know how anyone would willingly put themselves in that mess

Plenty of rednecks that can take my dude's place.

1. so true. Come down here, and they keep the homeless veterans in this low quality shelter.

2. You got that right. there is other more willing people to go into service.

One of my uncles, then a Major, had to go to Liberia for 3yrs with ECOMOG shortly after his first kid was concieved. The poor boy didnt know his own father until he was 4 but they all survived and are living happily today with 5 kids.

It all depends on if the woman is willing to make some sacrifice to allow her husband fulfill his dream.
