If your boyfriend is a petroleum worker, please read every word carefully! Maybe when you call him, his phone is always off. Please don't be angry because he is at work in a high-risk environment. Maybe some places don't even have electricity or mobile signals...
Maybe when you call his workplace and he's not there, please don't worry because he is either recording data or on patrol. Even a slight negligence might cause a serious accident...
If your boyfriend is a petroleum worker, please don't complain about him being away from you for a long time. His working environment is the wilderness, where the sky is his blanket and the earth is his bed. He wants to come back, but he always tells himself helplessly that he is a strong soldier, guarding the border like an idol, gazing at his wife from afar...
Perhaps after he comes home, he still can't go shopping with you or watch movies together. Actually, he knows how to enjoy life! He just has a lot of work left to do. He is thinking about how to avoid being apart for such a long time and is making efforts that you don't know about...
On the first day he comes home, he may sleep for 24 hours. When he is tired, please don't argue with him because every day, every 24 hours at his workplace, his nerves are tightly strung. He faces whatever happens at any time...
When he is in a bad mood, please don't blame him. Every day, he pays attention to every detail of his work and strives for perfection. Even so, he might still receive criticism and dissatisfaction from his superiors. The only person who can make him relax and feel comfortable is you...
If your boyfriend is a petroleum worker, maybe when you are sick and he can't take care of you all the time, please don't blame him. Besides his parents, he is the one who cares about you the most. However, he works far away and has many regrets. He might lie awake at night thinking about what you will do without him. Please believe that as soon as he has time, he will definitely take care of you and won't let you suffer any委屈...
If your boyfriend is a petroleum worker, please give him some understanding when he can't accompany you during holidays. He must stay at his post at all times. His life has no Saturdays or Sundays. Even rare occasions like Mid-Autumn Festival, National Day, and New Year's Eve, he has to see if he can rest! In fact, doesn't he also want to spend those beautiful times with you?
If he can't spend anniversaries with you, please understand his difficulties. His work often does not allow him to take vacations on time. He follows orders because he once secretly vowed to work hard and contribute to the oil industry, making future anniversaries more beautiful...
You rest while he works, you work while he rests. Please don't complain. In fact, the person he thinks about the most is you. Once he has time, even if it means sacrificing his hard-earned rest time, he will come to see you, even when you are busy. To avoid disturbing you, he secretly watches you from a place you can't see. Then he sends a message or makes a call, telling him that he loves you, saying that you look beautiful today, then saying a few words like "Dear, you've lost weight, take good care of yourself, I can't take care of you, please forgive me"...
If your boyfriend is a petroleum worker, please try to understand, empathize, and tolerate... After all, he is often misunderstood by his colleagues and not understood by his superiors, but for the sake of life, he moves forward resolutely. Please give him enough tolerance. He needs to vent to balance himself; he cannot always bear grievances beyond his capacity. You are the only one he can unleash his temper without reservation because he knows you are his sweetheart, his wife, his spiritual pillar. A sentence from you, "Honey, don't worry, I'm here!" gives him immense comfort and motivation...
If your boyfriend is a petroleum worker, please don't despise his rough hands and dark skin. His job is to be around dark crude oil all day! In fact, his health isn't very good either. The stress and hardships of work make youth slip away faster! Don't assume he knows how to take care of himself. In fact, the stressful work makes him endure both mental and physical pressures. Long hours of work and anxiety make him more prone to illness and aging than others! Seeing such a him, aren't you heartbroken...
If your boyfriend is a petroleum worker, he must live every day in guilt because he has lost a lot of happy times and too much romance that he promised over the phone! He wants to hold your hand, hug you, taste the food you cook, take you to buy clothes you like, spend time with the elderly together, take you and the kids to see the flowers in the park, think about how you spend your lonely days, regret not being able to hand you a tissue when you cry, wish to laugh with you when you're happy, wish to go home together at six o'clock, wish to watch a movie together, wish to look into your eyes and say, "Wife, I love you!" He wishes... about life... He thinks about you every moment... Helpless as this petroleum worker, he has only one thought: work hard! Make our lives better, reduce the time we are apart, increase the time we are happy!
If your boyfriend is a petroleum worker, please learn to cherish, understand, and tolerate.
If your boyfriend is a petroleum worker, please be proud of him and cheer him on all the time...
If a petroleum worker has no girlfriend, please fall in love with him quickly. Because petroleum workers don't have much time to date, and because when love comes, he understands love more than anyone else in the world...
Dedicated to the big brothers, little brothers, sisters-in-law, and younger sisters-in-law on the front lines of the oil industry... What is happiness? You all find it hard... Let's cherish our loving and happy lives! Petroleum workers have never lost anything, and happiness is no exception. Our hearts full of love are bigger than the sky, bigger than the sea, bigger than all the romance in the world. We hope that when you read this article, you can temporarily forget the harshness of reality and console your lonely hearts right now. Pick up the phone, call him (her), and say: "It snowed, it's cold, wear more clothes, take care of yourself, I miss you..."
