Well, I guess you would have to ask anyone who has a loved one in the military .. They too endure and sacrifice willingly. If you are not so willing .. Then, in your instance the answer is "nope".
He's joining the military and will be in another country for three years. He obviously comes home for holidays and things, but three years is a long time... I'm just really scared, could long distance work?
I was in the Navy and away for two years, with only occasional visits home. We wrote a lot of letters. Just celebrated our 50th anniversity. /
I can assure you when there is a will there is a way!
