We’re military so 3 months is nothing to me when I’ve been away from my husband for over 12 months at a time. He’s had 5 deployments, longest was 18 months and shortest was 10, he leaves often for weeks-3months regularly. Three months is a jump and a skip away. You’ve started this journey so stay on it. That money has a job that you’ve given it already. It hurts, it sucks, but you will be just fine. FaceTime and talk/text a lot. In three months when you’re all back together you will be glad you stayed on your path to financial freedom.
