I'm gonna miss you, Gay Pride Parade!


Application: ROMANTIC INVOLVEMENT WORKSHEET

"It is important for you to have a frank discussion with your significant other about the impact of service on your relationship."

"At times during your service you will encounter a great deal of stress, transition and isolation. The stress of an intensive training program and challenge of adapting to different cultural values may prove particularly difficult without the support of your partner. You may feel an overwhelming loss of friendship, love and support at a time when you need it most."

"[S]ervice tends to be a time of tremendous personal growth. Your perspective on many things will likely change as you experience life in another culture. Often returning home requires as much adjustment as adjusting to a new country and culture. This can also be challenging for romantic relationships."

"In order to best prepare you and your partner please carefully consider, discuss and answer the following questions. Please note, there are no right or wrong answers. (Please use additional paper as needed.)"
