Sacifices us WOMEN MAKE..READ PLEASE.

[dalesgirl]

We love each other. That simple. All the rest is worth it.

I actually couldn't even read anymore threads because I have started to cry....the emotions are from from admiration to you all and the love I see here...I am also LIFER when it comes to my man. Come hell or high water I will stand by his side. And I will be proud of him when he gets out just like I am so proud of him today. Sitting here with the cordless phone in my lap waiting for him to call...thank God we have minutes left this month! That seems to be my only concern these days is that they only allow the inmates a certain amount of time each month on the phone. I struggle with money. I got a second job. I had to buy a car I couldn't afford because the one I had wouldn't make it on long trips which is a 7 hour round trip to see him every 2 weeks if I can come up with the money. Which I always try to do. I call the prison when there are issues, I have now begun the parole process with him but he got a charge which I am now helping him fight thru the ombudsman. Because I BELIEVE in my man. And when it comes down to Ito would do absolutely anything I have to for Him and my children. I fight for love and for what is right an I'm a loyal, down female. To the end. He IS my best friend. He knows me inside and out. And I know him. It amazes me that we, as women get the flack we get for standing by the one we love..is that what the bible says we are supposed to do? Thank you for this thread. you made my day. You touched my heart and you reminded me that everything..even on the worst days..is gonna be alright. Because I have him. One lady said she wasn't waiting for her man she was building a foundation...this so true. We have grown so much during this time. We are truly building a foundation..and it is strong and it is forever.

waiting for my Christopher

i wrote somewhere earlier that there is 1 positive to this that I can find and that is that I've gotten to know mark in a different way than most people get to know the man they are going to spend the rest of their lives with. sex, money nothing, can play a part in you loving him. I've gotten to know him through letters in visit, more so than I knew him before he was arrested. the walls that are around him do not define the man he is. someone asked me why I love him, and the answer was simple " because I don't have to" any other man that has ever been in my life, I was getting something out of it. loving mark is different because I absolutely love him for him. we got married on May 27th 2012 in prison....everyone thinks i'm crazy. I've come to a point that i dont care what anyone thinks. Mark getting arrested and sentenced to 3yrs was the best and worst thing that could of ever happened to me, they gave me a chance to deal with excess baggage, and become an independent, strong woman, and I love my husband I will stand by him, no matter what other people think. I'm so glad I found the site, it's nice being able to talk and not be ridiculed, for my choice to stand by to mark and marry him while he is in prison.
money sucks, but I'm making it! Is there anyone out there whose man is in Chipley@ NWFRC? Would be nice to have a riding buddy and save some money. Thanks everyone for being here and sharing your stories....

I can relate... Why do I choose to stay? There's a million reasons to name but most of all it's because I love him and he loves me. At the end of the day he makes me happy. He's my bestfriend my confidant my lover and soulmate. My fiancée. Soon to be my husband

[Rae87]

I choose to stay because I love him. No other man I have ever been involved with can touch him in terms of intuitiveness, intelligence, spiritual awareness, leadership, love, tenderness, care, affection, connection with God and forward thinking. I would be foolish to walk away or settle for second best...

Although I resigned my position because I wanted to do everything right and follow the rules, they are telling me I can't see him for three years. It has been one and I don't know if I can last another two without him. It is very hard. We met under circumstances that make it difficult no matter what and they just keep making it harder for us. I don't know what I am doing half the time. I know that I miss him and I know that I am going to ride this out until he is home in my arms. I give all of you props. You are the strongest group of women I have ever met. Cudos!!! (sp)

If you really Love him then wait on him! At the end of the day nothing feels better than being able to be there for him faithfully.... Thats how you know that it will be good. I have 7 more years to wait on my love. I've done three already and were still going strong.... My visitation was reciently suspended for 6 months and prior to that i couldnt see him for a year after we started talkin.... This time apart has only made us stronger and lve each other even more. After all you quit a good job for this man he means something to you.... I say wait it out.... Ive never been through a relationship like this until NOW but i know that LOVE will over come all obsticles when its real on both ends.... Wishing you the best....

A good one tho.

I came and seen "him" n prison today and I realize how much I love him.hustling to get money to see and write him. Save extra to talk on the phone . Do any and everything for him. I thought I let him go but I dont let something go that fast. I can work things out. See not ALL FEMALES CAN HANDLE THE DISTANCE,THE 30MIN CALLS AND THE MILES WE PUT ON THE CAR TO SEE HIM/her . We should be awarded. The pain and struggle , the tears at night and the people around us that don't understand. I feel like I am the strongest woman to go thur this and for me to be young , going to college soon , and have my own . Many men are flocking my way but I choose him. The one that has to be lockdown but I know his POTENTIAL SENSE OF INTELLIGENT AND HOW MUCH HE LOVES ME. I can't lose that.

How many ladies can RELATE ? And why did u CHOOSE TO STAY?

I am totally there with u. I am a blessing to him and vice versa. I love him and have stuck by his side for 15 years and can't wait Until he's home and we can live together

Never have I had a love like this its pure and untainted we have never kissed or made love, I knew him prior to incarceration and we reunited, I suffer from only child spoiled syndrome it was ALL ABOUT ME until we became ONE, no more Cartier or Tiffanys Its now Target and Costco I do what I can for him and I love every minute of it

[gabby1979]

I chose to stay, then to reunite because nothing else in this world compared to the way he makes me feel. There's something to be said when you find the one man that God made just for you...it's like your breath is taken away just at the thought of him. I chose to stay because I know God doesn't make mistakes...my husband is a creation of God, a gift to me. And for that, I'll cherish him always. <3
