We met in May 2018 @ X-2 barracks on NAS Norfolk base. Joe asked me to go get ice cream and that was when everything started. We talked for a week and he asked me to go camping with him for his birthday weekend. It was a great trip. A few days later we made our relationship official. We’ve spent more time apart than together but our love has grown so much. He left in july and i saw him in september in his home town. I met his family and i felt like i fit right in. After that trip he went to Guam. I didnt see him again till his next birthday. I visited him in Guam and it was an amazing trip. He proposed to me and that was the best day of my life and i cant wait to marry him.
