Life as a Cabin Crew’s GF

Dating a cabin crew was something I never expected and I wouldn’t even think about it . My prev rs gave me a lot of trust issues and insecurities hence the idea of dating a cc was just out of the box.

Furthermore, Cabin crew comes with a whole set of stigma and stereotypes , mainly are just them being fuckboys,having lots of one night stand, cheating even when they have families etc etc. plus them not being able to constantly be around like usual couples were altogether a no no.

also I met him on a dating app, so I was kinda like talk for fun lor since he was q funny but I was defo not in, for the dating. As we talked I realised that he’s rly just a decent guy and he was really different from what I deemed cc’s to be hahahahahah . And anyways I took the chance and here I am, dating a cc boyboy. We met during Covid and honestly, it was the best time, cause they didn’t have much flights and we could hang frequently and I didn’t felt any ‘cabin crew impact’ yet, and he also somehow allowed me to realise that I didn’t really have trust issues it was really just the prev mad toxic. There was rly nothing for me to not trust him about and there were lots of assurance .

When the borders opened and covid was long forgotten, his roster was back to pre covid times, but even more flights, since they laid ppl off during covid. And this was something I had a hard time adapting to. Because he was always flying, and not present w me physically and I was used to the frequent meeting, hence the sudden difference did make me feel extremely empty at times.

He also wasn’t around during festive periods like Christmas, new year and Chinese new year and even on most public holidays. This was tough in the first year. But I think along the way I just got used to it. And I counted his off days as a blessings during such period and just contented.

Over the years I kinda just learnt to adapt, and work my schedule around his roster and plan my own activities when he’s not around . I also appreciate that he dedicates his off days w me to make up for the time we lost. At times when he chose to go out w his flight friends for meals I get abit fomo and a lil insecure too but I appreciate his constant texting and updates and I know if he hasn’t done anything there’s nothing to not trust.

Overall I think we just got to work through the arguments and appreciate the time we have together and treat every meet up as a blessing. And just really have to trust each other .
