I love this. My husband and I have been together for almost 4 years. Two years before boot and two after. And I remember when he went to boot I was terrified of him changing and not Loving me anymore. Thankfully he loved me even more because the distance showed us how much we really appreciate each other. The military has definitely tested us and our relationship. But we are so much stronger because of it all.
HardAnall Jr. that’s a big nope. Not every relationship is bound to Fail. Not everyone cheats. He was overseas for 6 months and we were perfectly fine. Most of y’all are grumps cause y’all either cheat or got cheated on 😂
Never lose sleep over the small stuff lmao good thing we’re not on base housing 😂 and we’re damn near in the Philippines. So he’s had a chance but doesn’t take it. Y’all can think what ya want but y’all don’t know my relationship so🤷🏼♀️ have fun being douches and thinking every servicemember or spouse cheats 😂 y’all will have a great life if ya don’t give it a chance
Not a believer in fate, I'm a firm believer in if you want something you have to go after it. The difference between love and dating is the willingness to keep going through the tough times. The good stuff is easy, the hard stuff is what bonds you!
Yep my brother is a truck driver at some times and my other is an electrician gone from home 2-3 week at a time but it takes work and trust from both sides and giving up is not always an option.
Anything worth having is Alot of work! Relationships are work! And the 2 people have to always love, compromise, be forgiving and appreciate each other always!! 27years together with mine and still going!! And no hasnt always been easy either!!😁
13 yrs of marriage and two deployments later, and it is all about communication (when able). No worries, lots of trust and support for my husband when he was home or in the sandbox. I
To be honest, this is the most sincere YT video about military relationships. I’ve been on a relationship for about 9 years and BF is currently deployed. Whatever is meant to be will always find it’s way - Live by that, every-single-day. Gained a subscriber. Best of luck! ❤️
My biggest thing is having a great partner. My girlfriend and I have survived basic training and ait. 5 months. And I changed a little negative and a little positive. And I’ve been at college for a month and she is 70 miles away. Of course we argue a little and see eachother once a week we are still going strong because we are both goal oriented people. We both got lucky we found an individual who wanted a real relationship.
Me and my ex broke up about a month ago, feels just like yesterday. He finished bootcamp and went straight to A school. The distance was hard at first, but the letters keept us going while he was at bootcamp. Everything was fine in A school as well, we would Facetime during any spare time we had with me in college as well. But i noticed how he changed, which was good because he became mature, but he also has became "emotionally cold", he himself doesn't acknowledge it. I brought it up a few times but he'd just brush it off. I thought i did something wrong for him to turn like this. We started fighting a lot, but to an unhealthy point, where we fought about dumb things and at that point you just need some peace of mind. Thats when we broke up. I still love him very much. He seemed to have already found another girl thats in the NAVY just like two weeks after me and him broke up. It sucks because i put in so much time and energy into him being okay. I know i deserve better, know your worth. Austen's right whatever is meant to be will happen.
Sumaiya Shimu--He didn't suddenly become "emotionally cold". You became less willing to put up with the long-distance relationship. Your sentence "It sucks because I put in so much time and energy into him being okay" says it all; it's all about YOU and it isn't. When your boy/girlfriend is in the armed services, it's all about the needs of the nation. He can obtain some of the best medical, dental, and psychological care in the world. There's an old saying: absence makes the heart grow fonder." Sometimes that means that absence makes the heart grow fonder of someone closer who shares the military experience. It's not about the uniforms and the military wedding you were hoping for. It's about the needs of the nation. NOT YOU.
If it only took two weeks for him to find another girl, that probably means they were already talking. Someone doesn't just get emotionally cold, they lose interest and that's what you noticed. I'm sorry this happened to you.
Hi Austen, I am a military brat-my father was in the military for 30 years and my father in law for 26 years. My husband and I have been 36 years. I watched all those years as my parents navigated the military (my Dad was gone alot of my childhool to Vietnam, Korea, Thailand, war college etc). It was hard-hard on them and hard on us as children but through it all they stuck together, solved it together, worked it out together. I have the greatest respect for those who persevere through and what you are saying is so very true-hard work-marriage alone is hard work and add the military in there as a factor which takes even more work. Don't take each other for granted and yes, compromise on both sides, equally-you both have to be able to bend. I just found you on youtube and you and Sarah are inspiring me to get moving again. Also, thank you for your service to our country!
The way you and Sarah argue and jab at each other on video is hilarious! And it's nice to see some of that realness on youtube. You guys should show more of that here
Hey Austen. My hubs is literally at MEPS right this second and I’m expecting his call from the classifer’s office any minute so we can go over the rates he’s offered. The hurry up and wait has been killing me! Anywho, his number 1 choice is MA so of course we’ve been bingeing your channel and will continue to do so no matter what rate he ends up with. Thanks for your amazing self!
Just got the news... he failed depth perception so they said no MA. He is CRUSHED. Ended up with freaking CS because his other top rates weren't available. We're shooting for a DAR when one of the Seabee or the PR rate comes up.
Mi husband is in the military most times it gets really hard for me cause I miss him so much he's deployed in Iraq ryt nw and it gets so lonely he's an American soldier 😥😥so I mke the most of it every time we speak too one another I'm looking forward too seeing him real sn
I went to navy boot camp with this dude from texas, we were both gonna be CT's so had some common ground. Every day the dude was gushing about his gf back home, how much he loved her, showing pics (she was pretty hot). So we grad bc and everyone goes home for 2 weeks leave. head to pcola for A school, hook back up with this dude. Again gushing about how he loves his girl, leave was awesome, he started shopping for a ring, all this all that. About a month into school we were walking around the base shootin the shit and he suddenly blurts out he doesn't love his girl no more and gonna break up with her. I was shocked. Up to that point of every single person I had met and gotten to know, nobody seemed as committed and dedicated to making a long distance thing work as him. And he followed through. He broke up with her. And while I was stationed in Japan, I was amazed at how many idiots would pick up a girl at a roppongi club, have a good shag and fall in love. Several guys I knew even married their conquests. They then had a tumultuous super stressful rocky releationship until every single one of them eventually got divorced. The morale of the story here, I don't know, I lost my train of thought now lol - sorry :D
I’m glad I watched this. My husband is active duty army and we are currently living in South Korea, however I’ve decided when we go back stateside I am going to join the AF. My husband completely supports the idea but we are both nervous about me going to BMT just because it’s my turn away for an extended time frame and his at “home”.. (he’s 7 years in with two deployments) we also have two kids so it’s going to be a huge change for all of us, but if it’s meant to be, it’ll be! So thank you for this video!
Yeah.. not easy relationship specially with military person.. it's need trusted and cherish each other.. hope you both going to next level be family.. greetings from Indonesia
This US Navy veteran advises: if you want a stable and peaceful relationship with someone, choose a person whose family has strong ties to the military. Avoid, if at all possible, beginning a relationship with someone in another branch or even in your own. Fraternization isn't looked kindly upon within the military structure. Civilians who have absolutely no ties to the armed services are clueless about the deployment separations, TAD or TDY orders, duty nights and weekends, etc. etc. etc. No one needs that aggravation; serving the nation is stressful enough.
This could just be me, but I find the most undesirable people are those who can't stand being alone with themselves. Like at all. Being a military man, I have to be out for a good month or so, and finding someone independent enough to not rely on others for enjoyment 24/7 is tough. Alot of people I swear are still mentally in High school or Elementary, which is f*cking sad.
John Doe i’m sorry you feel that way. and i’m sorry that you never had many positive female role models in your life to understand that not all females lie to get attention.
Do you think it’s fair to your partner to be in a relationship when you’re emotionally cold and you don’t plan for long term? Just wondering because my boyfriend is the same and he sometimes doesn’t think he is “meant” for relationships.
Well he could just be focused on other things or may need lots of time to warm up to the reality of long term. So no I don’t think it is unfair...it just sometimes takes us awhile to adjust
Austen Alexander so do you recommend just giving space and freedom to adjust? I can tell he has become more cold after 4 years in the military and a deployment. He has a lot of responsibilities as an officer and we are long distance. I feel like the more I pull, he pushes.
Brady Nuñez love your videos when i can join(in 2yrs)I’m going to join USAF and go pjs or USMC recon cant decide yet there is also Army warrant officer and go a pilot so many choices.
Brady Nuñez thx for the words of encouragement I’ve gone to an USAF recruiter and asked for a workout sheet for the past.I know you don’t like talking about religion but i am a christian so i feel like i have a connection with you that probably sounded weird but ikc
I’m 15 yrs married to ex policeman, we were separated twice, for a year during his training and now for 2 yrs during his overseas contract. It just bring us together even more. If somebody can’t make 8 weeks apart then it’s better to cut losses. Also I know what you mean about being emotionally “cold” at times. Used to drive me mental that nothing bothered him and he considered little things trivial and not worth discussing . But I’ve lean to appreciate that and I’ve grown together with him. That’s what love is, learn together, grow together support each other and have a great time.
Great video man!! Far the best! I felt bad watching the scene when she was shell shocked and then started crying and when you had your hand over the face knowing you screwed up, was really funny. Far the best RUclipsr Austen. Getting savvy with the tech I can also tell lol. Wish you and Sarah happiness!
I was married to a career marine for 50 years until he passed away. It takes a strong women to be married to a military man. We were in love until the end. I enjoy your videos.
I actually appreciate this video, I was thinking of putting up a video about getting married early in the military and this gave me a lot of insight on the relationship side
Think you summed it up well. Biggest problem is long deployments of up to 12 months and exercises away. Ideal scenario is getting a longer attachment for a few years to a training, or non deployment role, where you're based in the one place. Bottom line, is divorce and separation rates are high, due to the nature of the job role, whether Army, Navy or Air Force.
Woah Austen.. This video couldn’t had come out at a better time. Me and my significant other of 1 year & going on 9 months are both considering the military. I’m showing my gf this video rn.
Hi Austen... thank you for this clip... it's one the most impressive way to elaborate on relationships... with someone in the military... God go with you and Sarah... and I wish y'all the very best... and now I can move on.. in knowing that maybe my relationship is or isn't ment to be... take care and stay safe... 🤙✌
So true if meant to be will be........a lot of civilians need to understand what the soldiers go through......if you want to be with them you can make it work
Sarah respects the dead. Dont disrespect the dead. If you ever go into a cemetery. Please respect the dead. But the 3 common rules in a relationship is honesty, having knowledge of the other, (not understanding them cause you can't) as well communication can make a good relationship
You gave some really good advice here and helped me make a decision for when I join the Navy. Also, you taught me that Virginia City is supposed to be haunted, even though I grew up at the base of the mountain that leads to Virginia City (and I currently live in Reno). One little thing, though. The a in Nevada is pronounced like a scream when someone goes through a cemetery in the middle of the night.
Shes a doll, your a good guy. You are spot on......i have been married since i was 20 (46 years now) Yes, one normally does have to compromise more than the other. I'd say men 97 percent of the time ...3 percent women.....lol.....be good!
I'm not a marine. I'm not even an American. But I'm a army aspirant of my country and next year I'll go for my training so this has been so helpful for me Thanks Austen
I honestly think you are cold after watching almost all of your videos. As a tiny speaker of many women out there, i literally think so haha. I love your girlfriend, she is strong and great, please love her more hehe. Hello from Vietnam. Hope to see a video of someone from my country. Stay safe in this weird, dangerous and unexpected pandemic, you all!
That is awesome how you both took chance . Fighting is for power. Negotiating is working out difficult. I had chance I chose keep my word to my daughters . Can finish high school were we are . My man and I still in love and talk . In five years getting married . Talking is interesting with military . We find way ! We put work in if it meant to be. It will happen . We make .
This video helps a lot!!!, currently an E-4(p) that just reenlisted, I report in august and have been with my gf for a year, it's time to make a decision on marriage, long distance or unfortunately moving on... feeling stuck but this video does help! Thank you!!
It's so true I felt like say another girl or whom ever was better why the other ended it sometimes you think there something wrong with me, for a long time you feel like this, that the other person is very cold, love hearts some people don't realise how much they have hurt someone.
How do you manage showing her respect and separating work from home? How does Sarah manage “IF” you are cold and non emotional? She seems very confident, but sometimes you seem rude/disrespectful to her. This message sounds judgements haha but I don’t really know you. I’m just asking questions and getting curious. Love your content! Thanks for your service! Both you and Sarah sacrifice a lot.
Suggestion ..You should do one for the Families of the service members. Like in my case ,My husband's family don't understand the changes that go on after the child/ sibling enlists and after they have been in a combat zone like my husband. My in-laws don't seem to understand he is not the same person he was pre military. It's a big difference they are not the same person. Military life and Civi life are 2 diff animals. None of it shocked me I'm a Military Brat and well it runs in my family 90% of the men in my family are Military we have every branch but CG ( puddle jumpers lol) I think a video like that could help a lot of families understand the change that takes place. Thanks for taking the time to read this Semper Fi!
Oh that’s pretty cool, I went to that grave yard for a school project dec 2017 my senior year. Just after Christmas I decided to sign on with the Navy. From then until June something I had been trying out for AIRR and made their list but didn’t get selected so I ended up going to boot camp on the 26th as an air crewmen. While I was there doing a flight physical they discovered that I had mild scoliosis (unknown to me). A few weeks later I signed up as an MA after I had lost my rate. Went to A school, and now I’m in Kings Bay Georgia doing PRP stuff. Funny how the world works.
Long distance relationship is very hard but you need trust each other, love & communication for my fiance see soon im stand with you no matter what im willing to wait you baby, always be safe please😊
My boyfriend is in the army and it can be hard and when he got deployed it was hard but we made it through. He’s amazing and wonderful. I recommend dating someone who is military.

Very wise words! #Respect

A dependa will be issued to you when you get to your unit
This could just be me, but I find the most undesirable people are those who can't stand being alone with themselves. Like at all.
Being a military man, I have to be out for a good month or so, and finding someone independent enough to not rely on others for enjoyment 24/7 is tough.
Alot of people I swear are still mentally in High school or Elementary, which is f*cking sad.

Austen our here being our Physical Coach, Mental Coach, and now our Emotional Coach. Man is a TRIPLE THREAT. !!
I was married to a career marine for 50 years until he passed away. It takes a strong women to be married to a military man. We were in love until the end. I enjoy your videos.
Wow!
I actually appreciate this video, I was thinking of putting up a video about getting married early in the military and this gave me a lot of insight on the relationship side
Holy shit brother. Thanks for this, my girl went to bootcamp just last month and I’ve been bugging out but your advice has helped. Thanks again mane
The cemetery part is so funny :) , otherwise you are very wise and mature. Thumbs up.
Think you summed it up well. Biggest problem is long deployments of up to 12 months and exercises away. Ideal scenario is getting a longer attachment for a few years to a training, or non deployment role, where you're based in the one place. Bottom line, is divorce and separation rates are high, due to the nature of the job role, whether Army, Navy or Air Force.
2:42: is that a Free Mason's insignia on the background?
Austen gotta be the coolest guy on RUclips
Awww Poor Sarah 😭! U would have had to drag me in there haha , but thanks for the advice ! My bf May go on a one year tour ... so it’s gonna be tough
Woah Austen..
This video couldn’t had come out at a better time. Me and my significant other of 1 year & going on 9 months are both considering the military.
I’m showing my gf this video rn.
Awesome man glad it could help! Good luck with your decisions
Hi Austen... thank you for this clip... it's one the most impressive way to elaborate on relationships... with someone in the military... God go with you and Sarah... and I wish y'all the very best... and now I can move on.. in knowing that maybe my relationship is or isn't ment to be... take care and stay safe... 🤙✌
So true if meant to be will be........a lot of civilians need to understand what the soldiers go through......if you want to be with them you can make it work
Best Navy RUclipsr hands down
That’s so good to hear! Thank you
Who the eff downvoted Austins
video!
😭😭😭 **deleted YT channel**
Adam Durham all the females that dont like his girlfriend 🤣🤣🤣
im catching feelings for this one girl in my school and its my last year before I leave to MCRD
Ayeee it’s your last year have some fun
Sarah respects the dead. Dont disrespect the dead. If you ever go into a cemetery. Please respect the dead. But the 3 common rules in a relationship is honesty, having knowledge of the other, (not understanding them cause you can't) as well communication can make a good relationship
It was clear she didn't want to go & scared .
He was hurting her feelings , little did he know about Women .
man this is great, hubby and i argue 80% of the time and sometimes it turns into anger
You gave some really good advice here and helped me make a decision for when I join the Navy. Also, you taught me that Virginia City is supposed to be haunted, even though I grew up at the base of the mountain that leads to Virginia City (and I currently live in Reno). One little thing, though. The a in Nevada is pronounced like a scream when someone goes through a cemetery in the middle of the night.
You are an amazing person Austed, keep going!
Shes a doll, your a good guy. You are spot on......i have been married since i was 20 (46 years now) Yes, one normally does have to compromise more than the other. I'd say men 97 percent of the time ...3 percent women.....lol.....be good!
Great advice glad a male is making these kinda of videos as well !!
Today your channel came up in my RUclips home page and as soon as I saw Sara I subscribed... I can relate to her 100...
I'm not a marine. I'm not even an American. But I'm a army aspirant of my country and next year I'll go for my training so this has been so helpful for me
Thanks Austen
Compromise wins the prize. So true
I honestly think you are cold after watching almost all of your videos. As a tiny speaker of many women out there, i literally think so haha. I love your girlfriend, she is strong and great, please love her more hehe.
Hello from Vietnam. Hope to see a video of someone from my country. Stay safe in this weird, dangerous and unexpected pandemic, you all!
Needed to hear this I’m joining the marines & I hear they travel a lot thanks so much
They do but you also could be in one spot for 2-3 years
that masonic symbol on the gate 😳
Hydrux Sybilla I thought I was the only one who saw. I want to believe it’s just coincidence man
I saw it too
You da best!! Love that you don’t let people tell you different
Thank you very much!
Thank you, man. You are awesome sharing your experience.
I love your advice. You are really inspirational thank you Mr.Austen.
Thanks Allen!
Thanks bro this helps more than you would ever know
Austen Alexander out here with the advice man
I miss my boyfriend💪🏻 so much💕
That is awesome how you both took chance . Fighting is for power. Negotiating is working out difficult. I had chance I chose keep my word to my daughters . Can finish high school were we are . My man and I still in love and talk . In five years getting married . Talking is interesting with military . We find way ! We put work in if it meant to be. It will happen . We make .
God takes care of everything
This video helps a lot!!!, currently an E-4(p) that just reenlisted, I report in august and have been with my gf for a year, it's time to make a decision on marriage, long distance or unfortunately moving on... feeling stuck but this video does help! Thank you!!
If it's meant to be, IT WILL BE 😊👍🙏❤ Thank you for the great 👍 outlook!
It's so true I felt like say another girl or whom ever was better why the other ended it sometimes you think there something wrong with me, for a long time you feel like this, that the other person is very cold, love hearts some people don't realise how much they have hurt someone.
Congrats on 20K!!! 😪♾
Sarah is so beutiful, her personality is so honest, I love people like that.
Everything happens for a reasons. What will be will be..
You are awesome , wonderful and a very good human being.
Thank you guys
How do you manage showing her respect and separating work from home? How does Sarah manage “IF” you are cold and non emotional? She seems very confident, but sometimes you seem rude/disrespectful to her. This message sounds judgements haha but I don’t really know you. I’m just asking questions and getting curious. Love your content! Thanks for your service! Both you and Sarah sacrifice a lot.
if you have his girlfriend a set of range ear plugs are a must
Suggestion ..You should do one for the Families of the service members. Like in my case ,My husband's family don't understand the changes that go on after the child/ sibling enlists and after they have been in a combat zone like my husband. My in-laws don't seem to understand he is not the same person he was pre military. It's a big difference they are not the same person. Military life and Civi life are 2 diff animals. None of it shocked me I'm a Military Brat and well it runs in my family 90% of the men in my family are Military we have every branch but CG ( puddle jumpers lol) I think a video like that could help a lot of families understand the change that takes place. Thanks for taking the time to read this Semper Fi!
thanks so much for this video
Oh that’s pretty cool, I went to that grave yard for a school project dec 2017 my senior year. Just after Christmas I decided to sign on with the Navy. From then until June something I had been trying out for AIRR and made their list but didn’t get selected so I ended up going to boot camp on the 26th as an air crewmen. While I was there doing a flight physical they discovered that I had mild scoliosis (unknown to me). A few weeks later I signed up as an MA after I had lost my rate. Went to A school, and now I’m in Kings Bay Georgia doing PRP stuff. Funny how the world works.
I’m sorry to hear that bro. Hopefully you’ll enjoy your time in KB! About 6 hours from my house. Good luck with everything
I'm planning on joining the british army as soon as i am old enough and basic training for junior soldiers is 49 weeks, so almost a year
Austen - You are gave Good advice on making yourself happy .
Thanks for making this vid, headed to osut in March (22 week cycle😬) and have been dating my gf for 5 years so it really helped
Awesome man good luck!!
Thank you for your videos. I'm picking Master at Arms at meps
Awesome!! Keep me updated
I love this video!!
Long distance relationship is very hard but you need trust each other, love & communication for my fiance see soon im stand with you no matter what im willing to wait you baby, always be safe please😊
My boyfriend is in the army and it can be hard and when he got deployed it was hard but we made it through. He’s amazing and wonderful. I recommend dating someone who is military.
Its a no for me dawg
Gonna be a MA hope I see you in the fleet someday!
One of these days!!! ☝🏻
at 2:56 the gate has the freemason symbol which if you dont know was/is a secret society
I love what you say......you speak out of my heart ❤️
The thing I myself learned was that some of the guys can be veeeery convincing to do crazy things
Hey Austin so if I had a jaw surgery about two years ago in another country can I still join the Navy? Thank you keep making a amazing content 🙂⚓⛵🌊
Both of you are superbly hilarious.
Thank you and keep making your great videos wish you go live sometimes though
i will go live again soon!
Dislikes are people who aren’t in relationships :)
It happens every video 😭😭😭 *deletes every video*
It’s weird but I see his coldness... so sorry for Austen and Sarah. Hope you star having some feelings soon
Why do people Always say military women are « thots »
