So my first girl friend was one year ahead of me in high school (I was a junior she was a senior). After she graduated high school she joined the reserves and had 6 months of training but I said I would wait for her. We kept in touch and that period of time eventually passed and she came back. About a year or year and a half she was deployed to Iraq for a year. Again, I told her I would wait for her. She eventually got two weeks off for leave to come back. At certain points when she was back, she was kind of sketchy and every time she needed to use the phone she needed to be in "private" (across the street). I figured it was because she had been around such gnarly shit. On the day she left, she called me when she was at the airport and told me she had been seeing another guy while she was over there. Here is the kicker, not only had she been seeing someone, but she was pregnant and had gotten an abortion while she was back for her two week leave. She wanted to work it out after she got back but it just didn't work out.
