Adjusting.
Hello AoM,
My name is Kidd.(yes its my real name),
I recently ended my 5 years of active service in the U.S. NAVY.
Befor getting out all i could think about was getting home. Now that I am here things arent the same. I feel like every one and every thing here has changed so much. I am haveing a very hard time adjusting back to my "small town" life. I was wondering if there were any "VETS" out there if any one of you, could help me with this.
I understand this is not written with the best use of English grammer, punctuation, and spelling. hopefully you will look past this and offer any advice and help.
Thank you all so much,
Kidd.

Funny how the little things stick with you. My two: shined shoes and gig line. And my haircut is still 35-10 (although the goatee isn't).

Well, at least we had subdued stripes and nametags when I started. So it could be "older school".

That's the old school Navy with the dungarees. I started back when they had the polyester work uniform but changed back to the cotton dungarees when they discovered the poly would melt to your skin in a high heat (think fire) environment. Cotton would burn but wouldn't stick. Then I went Brown-Water Navy where we wore the old pickle-suits (OD green), then we switched to the green camo BDUs (first generation).

chad posted a discussionCoed friendships while in a relationship
So a previous post of mine brought up an interesting debate. Is it okay to hang out with people of the opposite gender while you are in a relationship? What are the limits to this? Is it okay in a group setting but not one-on-one? Is it okay in public but not private? Does it matter if you know this other person? I can't possibly come up with all the possible scenarios on here so feel free to come up with different ones.The final topic of discussion for this is what would you do if you…See More

Hyrum Higgins posted a discussionAdvice on whether to stop talking to a girl
I have liked the girl for a long time. Years. I'm 18 now, and for most of the time I know her, I mainly just talked to her. She doesn't live nearby. Tonight, I finally told her of my feelings for her over the phone. I shouldn't have waited this long but I did. She didn't return them. As politely as she could she told me that she wasn't especially attracted to me, and that my obvious attraction to her had made talking to me and being friends with me a little awkward at times. It was a relief to…See More
