I totally know what you mean! A wife that had been through this told me not to get my hopes up alot about the letters he sends me, not that he doesnt love me or anything but just that the guys there don't really have anything going on besides work and she would get like a 1 page letter just about how bad or great dinner was that day, kinda thing. I can't wait to get my first one from him though! Im missing him like crazy and it will be great to hear how he's doing and what he's doing (well as much as he can actually tell me)
But with every letter I send him im sending a picture of something fun I did or something like that, they say it helps keep the guys feeling informed, like where he is theres nothing really going on so when they think about all the things going on in everyday life they really miss just little things
Its hard for me right now but its got to be harder for him, so I just try to think about that
