He told me today that instead of moving into the apartment we picked out and signed a lease for in JUNE that we move into next month, that he would like for me to find something I can afford on my own. *sigh* I understand WHY but I hate that he's asking me to deal with him gone for so long on such short notice AND wants to take away the one thing that's kept me truckin through in this dump we live in now. And the deployment may be a year, not 6 months. He's not sure, he "Forgot" to ask!!!
*sigh* Lord help me now, that boy better figure out WTF is going on FAST if he wants to leave in 5 weeks when we move in 3!

I thought I was safe from deployments since he has a civilian job (though it is government/DoD contract) and I was good to deal with whatever short thing he'd get from the Reserves.
Then he calls me today and says he volunteered for a deployment to either Kuwait or Afghanistan for 6 months.... leaving January.
