Today, the day before I was going to move in with my army fiancé, he was told he would be deployed very soon. I can't pay for the apartment without him, and now have to move back in with my parents until he returns from active duty. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out that my fiancé is going to be deployed on our wedding day. FML
Today, I packed up to get ready to move to my boyfriend’s. I just graduated high school and I don’t get along with his mom, but I have no other choice of living. I was supposed to move in with his family tomorrow but now his mom won’t let me. It was last minute, and I’m basically homeless. FML
Today, I caught a flight to see my boyfriend, who is stationed in the army 300 miles away. When I was just 15 minutes from the base he called to say that we should break up. Now I'm heading back to California, single and broke. FML
Today, my boyfriend came home from a two week vacation and told me I needed to move out. FML
Today, I'm seven months into a twelve month deployment. I called my fiancée, and she dumped me. The worst part is that two days ago, I re-enlisted to go to a unit an hour away from her house. FML
Today, I just got a new assignment for the moving company I work for. Two weeks ago my fiancé dumped me and I moved out of the house. Almost all of the furniture was mine and it took forever. The new moving assignment I have is moving her new boyfriend into my old house. FML
Today, my fiancé's mother made him pack his stuff and move to Montana while I was at work. I came home to a half-written note because she wouldn’t let him finish. We own a house together. FML
Today, my boyfriend told me he’d have a surprise for me when I got home. The surprise was he’d moved out, dumped me, and cut me off from his share of the bills, because he’s not interested in marriage and babies. I can’t afford the rent by myself so I’m going to have to move back to my mother's. FML
Today, my newly ex-fiancé, the father of my 5-year-old child, moved out of state with no warning. I just spent my last $500 paying off his car, and the rent is due tomorrow. FML
Today, I learned that my husband is getting deployed for we don’t know how long, and I’ll be left all alone, in a different country far away from home. FML

they don't stop paying him just because he gets deployed

you are most likely lying, unless you didn't even figure anything about the life you are going into. because your fiancé will be active duty until he retires, not just until he comes back. get ur facts straight and someone is being a little selfish, you are complaining about living with your parents, while your fiancé is risking his life. ur a bitch!!

That's not true. If he's American and in the Reserves or National Guard, they aren't active duty except if they are deployed.

In the United States, if his name is on a lease, he will get BAH in addition to his regular pay. He can send you the BAH to pay the rent. But yeah, it's more productive to whine on here instead of come up with solutions.

Since you guys are gonna get married anyway, go to a justice of the peace and do it before he deploys. The army will pay him a housing allowance which will help with the rent. Also, God forbid something happens to him while he's deployed you'll get survivors benefits. Welcome to the Army!

I am a soldier. I Thank those of you who appreciate what we do, it's not easy. I don't understand why she doesn't move in anyway. All she has to do is get added to his checking account and she'll have access to his money. Guarantee the the landlord will accept the money, they really don't care where it comes from.

they do support them. as long as they are legally together. they have to be married. being in an army family is very hard and sacrifices are made daily. but for all of us. that's what makes them so wonderful. so quit bitchin.

I'm active duty. if you guys get married before he deploys then the army will pay him housing allowance on top of what he makes. that amount should cover the cost of your rent and utilities without taking more money away from you. or they'll let you guys live on base rent free and utility free but with no extra money. so u might wanna go to a court and get married a lot sooner. and then have a big nice wedding later with the party and all that good stuff. but the military won't support u unless ur married and his dependent.

be grateful your parents are taking you in. either come to terms with your situation and have a good time with your family or get financially stable enough to move out on your on either way stop bitching.
