He needs you to wait cos obviously there aren't any bars in Iraq and knowing they've got a girl to come home to makes time go by faster. But what about you? Your needs? You didn't ask to go to Iraq. As much as I sympathise with your friend it's his life choice, tell him you can start dating when he comes back *if* you aren't with someone else....and you continue living your life. Don't suffer for other people's sacrifices.

You could certainly write to him and get to know him better through email and letters, plus support him as a friend in a hellacious time of his life, but don't make any kind of commitment if you haven't. Chances are that some guy who is close to home will start something with you, or you with him, and you really wouldn't want to break the heart of a soldier in the field. Just be his friend--also don't tell him all about your love life. He's got his life to worry about.

hi! my boyfriend left me for bootcamp, mct, mos, japan, and iraq... that was about three and a half years worth of his military career. we got married before he went to iraq. it's hard, but it is possible. there are lots of support groups, lots of other girlfriends, fiancees and wives to talk to.. you can learn a lot from those girls!!! It's espcially hard to wait with him being in Iraq, because he'll especially need your support during this time. If you ever wanna talk just e-mail me! Good luck.

If you are considering dating while your current boyfriend is away, then it's clear that you don't have very strong feelings for him. You should let him know that you want to live your life and let him live his. Be fair to him and don' cheat, don't let him develop feelings for you that you might not develop for him in that year that he is gone. I'm sure you wouldn't like to find out that your boyfriend was with someone else without you knowing it.

did the two of you discuss you dating other people while he is gone? If you really care about him, i think you should wait.
