Your long time husband or fiance or boyfriend comes home from Iraq without any arms, or missing both legs, or hideously burned or paralyzed from the waist down. Would you stay by his side and continue to be with him or stick around for a while to look supportive, then leave or dump him right away? Be honest!!! No one will blame you for either decision. Guys, you can answer, too...if your woman came home messed up...

It's easy to say one would do the noble thing and stay forever, but reality may be different. If I were the disfigured one, I'd sure understand if my partner chose to move on (even if it hurt me)...what I would do, I honestly don't know for sure, but chances are I would love and support them as a friend, but move on romantically.

My husband is on his way to Iraq as we speak. No matter how much of an ****** he has been in the past. I would stand by him and care for him till the very end. We were High School Sweet Hearts and basically grew up together and eventually he moved on, but I am still his wife and he makes my children happy. I would do what ever it took to prolong his life for the happiest of my children.

If he was the love of my life...I would stay with him and love him. It's what's is inside that counts. He's defending my country...he shouldn't be shunned and turned away for having to suffer terrible consequences for having the courage to do what most don't. If I was doubting the relationship to begin with...I don't think I would have stayed with him if he was going to be gone for so long. If he wasn't the love of my life...I wouldn't want to lead him on. But...I would love him the same way I did before he left. Im sure there would be hard times, but we'd get each other through them.

.A true test of love says YES. He/she was a warrior. All of the above has and will continue to take place. I have pen pals there. You know what? When they have written or emailed they worry about there loved ones here. It also depends upon the strength and devotion of those back here how they can deal with that. I know this for a fact. Parents, brothers, sisters, would never abandon them. Now I would like to know why you asked this question? and a good one at that

You marry a person because ou love them. Sticking around just to be supportive is heartless. If it were my husband I would stay with him, because I love him. It would break my heart to see him this way, but we would get passed it. I am sure there would be emotional issue's both of us would have to get passed though. I am not married just because of the way my husband looks though. I would take care of him and hope that he would do the same for me. Which I believe in my heart that he would

O.k 1rst of all every body that sayin that they'll still love him/her is a motherf*ckin lier.Anyway i really wouldn't worry about him because the time that they leave for Iraq I know from that point on to go and find another man because he's going to be gone for some years and probly will get shot before the damn war even starts.

Oh wow that's heavy.
I've been married to my husband for 11 years and I love him very much. He's also in the military. I'd definitely stay with him, no matter what.
If something did break us up it would be if he just gave up, threw in the towel and basically didn't want to try to live his life. I'd find it frustrating to fight so hard for him when he's not fighting for himself.
I also think it would be harder to stay with a partner with a mental disability - they wouldn't be the same person you married, they wouldn't have the same thoughts or personality.

I'd be sad, and pissed off enough to wanna go to Iraq and blow some heads off, but I could handle it. It might take me a while, and he'd have to be patient and understanding, but I rarely like people for their looks anyway. It would be different if he came back and was a completely different person, but not if he was disabled or scarred.
No one's perfect. A little more imperfection won't bother me.

I love him too much to just leave him. My sweetheart is deployed in Djibouti right now, fighting in Somalia. I would love him even if he came home a vegetable.

i wud probly start crying. but id still love him the same. hes still the same person that he was when he left for iraq. and if he trusted me (and i trusted him) enough to go to iraq and still love eachother when he returned then there isnt a dobt in my mind that i wudnt still stay with him.
