Is he really crying?
I had a girlfriend when I got drafted and went to Vietnam.i wasn't there two months and received a "Dear John." She wanted to date other men who were not in the military. Did I get upset? Hell no! I had a lot more on my mind than thinking about a girl back home. I wrote a letter to her and asked her which Caroline she was.

Between fear of falling for a mooch, long distance with limited contact, and all the normal struggles that come with any relationship, sometimes you’re left wondering if it might not be easier to get a dog, because she will love you no matter what.
