Some folks spend Memorial Day remembering the comrades they’ve lost, the hard parts of life that were survived, and dwelling on the sacrifices that have been made by others. That’s actually really healthy, emotionally. But others would rather spend that day focusing on the life that still needs to be lived! For those of you who don’t want to spend the day alone, whether you just need another person to connect with who just gets what you’re going through, or if you’re hoping to find a special someone that you can build a new, and different civilian life with, chat rooms really are a great place to find what you seek!
Chat rooms allow you to be a part of a community, with people who share your background, common interests and experiences. Plus, you never have to leave the comfort of your home to connect with real people who need the support and comfort that only your voice can give! Share your experiences, or just listen in as others share theirs, and know that you are no longer alone in this world, and that you are still a valuable part of a team!
Phone dating is another option, for those of you who are ready to move forward from your honorable past, for those of you who want to find that special someone who will trace their fingers over your scars with appreciation and a deeper intimacy. You don’t want to build a dating profile, and you’re sick of the clubs and blind dates your well meaning buddies push you into. You want to connect, first, get the chance to scope out another person before you open your life to them. Phone dating allows you to show yourself – without the pressure of an in-person meeting – before you’re ready to engage with them in a civilian setting!
Don’t spend Memorial Day all alone. Use your smartphone, in its most tactile base function, to connect with hundreds of people in your area. People who want to get to know you at a deeper level than just your uniform and rank. People who can and will value you for more than what you offer on the surface. Connect with real voices on the other end, and find your place among the living. Just soldier up and dial in! You can remain completely anonymous, and still make real and formidable connections that can last a lifetime!
