Husband in USAF basic training...Worried that he won't feel the same about me after?

So mys husband is in basic right now and graduates may 23rd. He hasn't writtne me a letter back, and I've sent him several. I don't know if that's b/c he doesn't have time? I'm just afraid he won't want to be with me after for some reason... Did anyone feel that way after basic? Or did it make your relationship stronger....

he loves you very much. probly more now then ever. him not writing is mostly him trying to concentrate on his training so he can get out on time to see you. write him as much as possible, if he doesnt write you dont get discouraged there is various reasons why but write him. when i was going through infantry school the training was so intense for me(partly cause i left out of shape) on my free time i studied, excersised, straighten out my locker. i ever only had enough time write my wife maybe once or twice a week. but me putting in that extra effort set a good platform from the rest of my career with all the awards and i never got into trouble. some people manage that and write every day, i couldnt my wife understood. just dont give up. the 23rd is just around the corner
Reply:One of the purposes of BMT is to tear down an individuals reliance on family in order to be able to complete a mission. When a Flight's TI feels that this crutch has been removed, trainees are allowed to communicate with the outside world, on a very limited means to reduce relapse. Its not the best thing in the world to hear, but in a few weeks your husband will be out of BMT and on to technical training, which is not as stringent as Basic.
Reply:He is working so hard right now, he has no time to write to you. Write him at least twice a week... Let him know you miss him, BRIEFLY... then be his cheerleader. Tell him how proud you are of him... how confident you are in his abilities. Don't burden him with anything going on at home. He can't do anything to help out, and it'll just make him feel worse. You be his cheerleader, and he'll be so grateful when he gets out, he won't ever forget that your letters got him through the experience!
Reply:lol hunney he will be so glad to see you. If by stronger you mean hes going to want to pull over and have some on the side of the road i am betting that has happened a few times. Seriously he has seen mostly men for the last 6 weeks or so being front to back with o maybe 6 inches between his nose and the back of the head in front of him. He has probably just been so buisy or tired that writing hasn't been on the top of his to do list. Sleeping becomes very important.
Reply:They're running his *** off right now. In a few weeks he'll have more time to write. Just keep sending him letters and pictures. I guarantee you that he'll appreciate it. My guess is that he wasn't much of a writer before he got there.





Trust me on this, when he gets back with you, after basic, he's going to be VERY enthusiastic about you, if you know what I mean.
Reply:He's a bit busy right now. He'll write.
