Smile I am getting married...15 year sentence
Hi~ I am new to this forum, and am not completly sure what I am doing yet... so please forgive me, if I post the same thing once or twice.
I am getting married to a man I love to pieces- and to date he has 15 years left on his sentence. My friends, family, society.... can't seem to understand why I would want to marry and wait for someone that long.... Does anyone else have experience with waiting so many years for someone?
Since I am in Ca, we do have the 'family visit' option- every 3 months.... does anyone have any experience with this as well?
Thank you so much,
Take Care,
Michele

I just got married on Saturday and I know and understand how you feel!! It's a level of commitment and closeness! Sonny has 7 years to go but I would have married him if it was 15! I have doubts sometimes if I can do it. And I talk about it to him and I know I can!! Communication is the main thing!! I know I can talk to him about anything! PTO is also a great help! They keep you grounded and are always there when we need them! Feel down, They're there! Feel confused, they're there! Feel happy, They're still there!!! Funny how that works!! Hope you and your Sweetie are very happy together!! And know there are alot of people here that understand!!! Welcome!

Hi Michele and welcome....I too am waiting and have 8 years and 10 months to go....we havent talked about marriage yet , but we are definitley making plans for the future. I tell ya one thing it has already proven to be harder than I thought it would be, but it has also already proven to be more worth it than i thought it would be. Good luck to ya and if you ever need to talk about it feel free to get in touch.

I just wanted to say Thank you for your support already! It feels comforting to know, I am not the only one in this situation and that there are people who can understand and accept my decision . My family and friends think I am insane at the moment... to even think about marry'ng a man in prison- not to menion the 15 years to go.....
Thank you all so much!

Welcome to PTO, you will love it here! You'll find alot of love and support. My fiance has a 6-12 years sentence and i have to admit that I do sometimes sit wonder if I can wait that long. But when I visit him or talk to him on the phone or receive a letter I feel in my heart that he is worth the wait and i know i can. Trust me I know how your feeling, not many people support my decision on waiting for him. We are also planning on getting married while he is in prison. Alot of people tell me they think im nuts or they feel bad for me but my thought is....if they cant accept my choices in life then obviously they cant accept me so screw them. I cant say I have experience with waiting for someone for years as he has only been in 7 months so far. But im sure there is someone here that does. :-)

I am getting married to a man in 2 months that has been locked up for 4 years now and has little under 2 left. If you love someone then do what your heart tells you to do. no one fully understands what you are going through. my family doesnt understand either.
