91 Love Letters

There's a lot of things they don't tell you about falling in love with someone in the Marines. Sure, they tell you the blunt stuff:

You're not going to be able to see your significant other for a long, long time.
You'll hardly be able to contact them at certain times.
Time spent together is not guaranteed.

But what they don't tell you is that you're in for a world of heartbreak and sadness and you have to wake up the next day just to do it all over again.

This is my experience as I wait for my recruit to come home, as a Marine.
