Is there anything wrong with feeling that men in military uniforms are the only type of suitable men to date? (Though not all are). Being in ROTC, I don't date within the det., because of how weird it would be; fraternizing, but I do like men in uniform. But, is there something wrong with only wanting to date men in uniform? I prefer to date men who have or are going into the same career field, because they seem to understand the situation; endeavors better, plus I don't put up with that bull shiit, that I get from guys who don't appreciate our armed forces. What do you guys think?

I LOVE a man in uniform. My man is a cop (of course) and he was in the Marines for 9 years prior to that. OMG he is soooooooooooooo hot in his uniform, especially in his flight suit. (easy access too). Oh wait you were talking about having things in common, yes that too......did I tell you how HOT my man was in his uniform?

Why should a man in a uniform be a suitable man to date?
They get into uniforms because they think it brings them selfish appraise and boasts their egos. They want gratitude and attention, but really what does the uniform stand for? Wars, guns, killing others -- "I am and you're not".
It's true that men look great in their uniforms (some do anyway) but for the most part they want to feel and look prestigeous like they want to be revered and for what? What are they really doing to bring peace to the world?
I far better appreciate a man who has his own company, is a great provider, loves God's ways instead of what 90% of the world tells you that you should love, or how you should act, or that military men are the bomb. A man who puts God first and not a uniform to "get chicks" or "get laid", or bring false honor to himself.
It's just all a bunch of who shot John...really, it is. Military men lack decency and morals...they cheat and whore around, and they bring these distasteful lack of values home to their wives or girlfriends, etc., and the cesspool continues.
It's all a crock.
Don't get wound in...look for what is in a man's heart, not what he wears [as in a military or police uniform] for that represents death and selfishness. Who wants to be married to that?
Ugh....Bless you.

Sure, a military man will understand what your going through, but who's to say that a non-military man wouldn't be able to. Also, who says all non-military men are anti-military?
Don't narrow your options, because, who knows 10 years from now, you might feel differently about the military, or your place in it, and what if the guy you marry remains in the military. or worse, gets killed in the line of duty.
I don't know...it just seems very limiting to only date military men. especially when it seems like you've written everyone else as being "unworthy".

It's perfectly acceptable to date men in uniform, especially if you will be joining the armed services as well. You're correct, because they will understand what you're going through, and that alone will probably cut down on my arguments. My husband was in the military as well, and many of our fights were in result of his always being away from home. As long as you know that not ALL men in uniforms are going to be great guys. There are losers in every department. :) Good luck and God bless!

Do you make them wear the uniform on the date?
If not, are you still attracted to them outside of their uniform?
If you are, then whats the difference than dating a regular fella?

No there is nothing wrong with that. That is your turn on. You are right not all of them are good but there are more of them to choose from so you have a good selection and you know that most of these people are not dead beat cause they work everyday and have to follow some type of authority so that is a added plus way to go!

I don't think that it's wrong but I do think that it's not smart...
It's better to have variety. I personally wouldn't do it though...people can get really messed up from war (mentally), I have been through life scarring moments and I can't handle someone else's on top of mine.

I think you're leaving out a whole lot of really great guys and will really miss out - maybe on "The One".

I think that's pretty shallow, not to mention presumptuous.
