my (soon to be) ex wife and I dated a couple months before i went to boot camp and 2 weeks before i shipped off she told me there was another guy. She said if I wasnt going into the Marine Corps, she wouldve been with me or if i chose not to go. I couldnt do that so i went to boot camp and came back and saw her once at school. Didnt talk to her for 2 years
i get back from afghanistan and the girl i was trying to get with blew me off in afghanistan so i didnt even see that one. But something told me to call Ashleigh (i never forgot her number...and hadnt dialed it in years). So I called and talked to her for hours...she was already late for work so she didnt even go in.
She and I dated and it was the best feeling i had ever had before. We dated for about a year and a half and she and i just started talking about kids and a future with each other. I was getting ready to leave on another deployment and i played with the idea in my head to see how things were when i got back and then propose but it seemed she really wanted something then. So i proposed. 7 months after i get back we get married.

after that...well just look at my threads.....
