If TK doesn't eat this, good vibes/advice?

FI will be home in a little under 8 hours (someone let me know if that's OPSEC/PERSEC, they're driving home from his TDY, so it's not a huge troop movement thing). It's surprising me how nervous I am to see him again. In one way, I'm kind of glad I'm sick because if I wasn't I'd be rushing around like crazy, but I really wish I wasn't because I don't even have energy to go to the grocery store. There is no food in the house because I cleaned the fridge before I went to MS. I'm just going to dye my hair, shave my legs and throw a dress on. I feel like this should be a bigger deal, after all, that's 3.5 months we've been apart. 

I'm a little nervous about how we're going to re-integrate our lives together. We'd been living together since August, and were long distance almost a year before that, but once we moved to SA it was only about 2 weeks before he left, so I've done most of my exploring the city and figuring out where things are on my own. I've also gotten really used to keeping my own hours, eating what I want and watching the TV when I want. I've never lived totally alone before this (always had roommates) and it's gone from a little scary to totally normal.

So, I guess I'm asking for any advice about how to make this transition a little easier on both of us and for some good vibes that it all goes smoothly. Of course I'm also really excited, so, yay, he's almost home!

  • Good vibes headed your way! I can't really help you with any advice, I've never actually lived with my FI. But try not to stress over it or make it a big deal. Maybe you'll be surprised at how easily you transition back to living together!

  • Ugh I realized tk ate my post. Basically I sent you some good vibes, and I hope you are enjoying having your FI home!
  • you'll be fine. I moved to Beaufort when H was deployed and didn't know anybody so I set up my own life. We had never lived together and when he came back, we adapted pretty quickly. It was nice because I already had things I liked to do and had been to places he hadn't even been to. Then we also explored places together. It worked out well for us. You'll be great i promise!
