I'm just 18 and the guy I'm involved with is 22. I am interested in getting to know him better and he told me his goal for the next couple of years is to buy a house and be successful. He told me he is real affectionate and I am also. I know that being in the military you can't just decide that you want to buy a house like that without a wife or dependents or something like that. Do you all think that he is trying to imply that he want to settle down with me eventually? We haven't been on a date yet due to me being out of town, but he has something about him that im interested in. I also have wondered about him, he's been station here at Ft. Bragg for 3 years and doesn't have a girlfriend or babymomma or any of that and I know how some guys in the military are, they will lie and have another familiy somewhere else, just to get some pussy. He also is very quiet at times, says I talk to much sh!t and he got to work on my mouth and we cop attitudes sometime with each other. What u think?

I think you need to slow down and get to know the guy and yourself. You are only 18 and he is only 22 - you have a lot more life and experiences to gain. The fact that he's in the military tells you absolutely nothing about his level of maturity. He could be really mature and on the ball, or not.
Having a son who is now 31 and remembering how he was at 22 years of age I do know that young men at that age are not, for the most part, ready for commitments even if they think they are. There are too many women to conquer. The fact that your boyfriend doesn't have any children is probably a good sign - it means he's used protection. He may not have a girlfriend for all kinds of reasons and the only way you'll know is by asking. The only way you'll get to know him period is by asking lots of questions. If he gets upset then tell him you wouldn't ask if you weren't interested in him.
At the same time don't make the mistake of jamming him up or hovering over him or being needy. I've seen plenty of girls who came my son's way and I could just about predict how long they'd be around. The ones who insisted on calling him several times a day or made him the center of their world were gone in a heartbeat. Young men are really into the pursuit and they always seem to want the girls who know how to leave them alone and ignore them and who have other things going on in their lives - this is what makes them the prize to go after. You want the guy? Work on yourself and don't make him the center of your universe.

I think u are to young specially with a guy is the Army
u should wait because Army life is not very good for a marriage
takes a lot of work and understanding
trust me I was in the Army 6 years and went around the world 2
times very hard to have a family and take care of it and complete a mission may be easier to marry a police officer

I think that if you're even questioning it, then it's a bad idea. When it's right, you know it and you don't have to ask questions.
