I understand completely. By all means, they can come to me for venting or advice about these kinds of situations, but I don't want to hear it all the time. There comes a time when they must get out of the "center of the universe" chair and listen to your grievances. Just sit down with them and talk it out with them. Tell them how you feel. I have this girl I know from school who I follow o Twitter (well not anymore). She would always complain about how she needs a cuddle buddy and a texting buddy and how she wants to meet the perfect guy. Those three topics are all she would tweet about. I couldn't stand it! At first, I was like, "You'll find a guy one day!" Now I just want to bang my head against the wall!

All you can do is sit down with your friends and explain your dilemma. If they truly understand, they'll be there for you and fix the problem at hand. :)

I know exactly how you feel. I definitely don't want people to feel sorry for me or feel like they can't vent to me but they need to understand how good they have it. Military life is hard any way you look at it. Maybe if you explain to your friends what you're going through, they can learn to appreciate all the communication they have with their significant other.

You have I have and how recently it was. I would suggest telling them what it is like for you and how nice they really have it. And ask them not necessarily for understand but to not complain to you about it all because really.... you can only have so much sympathy for them when they are still able to pick up a phone and text/call whenever they want...
