Welcome to LAAT, I know what your going through is VERY difficult. Exactly like you- I met my husband online as well. He was not a driver either. If you get a chance, go to "advice for you". These have many helpful tips in how to make this as easy as possible on all involved.
It will never be "easy" but your ability to deal with it DOES GET BETTER! I miss my husband daily, and Look forward to the time that he is here with me every day, or I am in the truck with him.
You are more than welcome to contact me anytime you like.

Keep your chin up girlfriend. Its hard, but he sounds very attentive when he is around. I know, I Know, sometimes that makes it harder! It would be easier if he was a------- because then you would not want to be around him- I tell Keith that all the time.
Once he gets some time under his belt there will be more options available to him. Regional- or even home nightly.
Again, your more than welcome to contact me anytime, I know first hand, as do the other wives on here, what your going through!!

It is tough having a trucker boyfriend. by: Kim
Hi. Im a truckers wife. We have been together 3 1/2 years and he has been driving on and off for 2 years. Its very rough. We also have two young kids. I wish I could say it gets easier but honestly it doesn't. He usually makes it home every weekend but during the week its super hard. No one will ever know what you are feeling.
It's hard on them as well though and I will always stick by him. He is out there making a living for us after all....it takes me and him both working to make it these days. Just wanted you to know there are some out here who feel your pain! You can email me anytime you would like. There used to be a site on myspace that was great support...you may want to check that out. Good luck to ya!
