My fiancee and I are planning to get married in the next coming year. He's serving in the Army in Korea and wants me to go with him after we are married. But we are both very young. I want to start college soon and major in nursing but I've been waiting just about 5 years to finally be with the man I love (and I want to go with him wherever he is). Does anyone have any suggestions for me?

Concentrate on your education. Wether or not things work between you and him you will always have that. I was in the military and as much as I loved it, It was the one thing that tore my first marriage apart. Especially in Korea. I have been there as well. The place is a dump. You will not like it there. Just continue your education thats what this stage of your life is for. Getting married comes after you get good jobs that can support a marriage.

If you want to start college and major in nursing, you need to do just that, first. Have you been doing anything else over the past five years that you could not start college? Could you attend a nursing school in Korea? Preparing yourself for independence before marriage is a good idea since you are still very young. If you still wish to go to Korea with your fiancee after you complete your personal life goal, then do so. However, do not put your life on hold for another minute. Once you marry and go to Korea you may be too busy for college and your finances may change. Seize the present. If he loves you, he will understand your needs to have your own career as well as his support of your efforts.

Good morning I am also in the military (USN), I am not sure of the is job/responsibilities but I do know that family is the most important to get him through what ever it is he is doing. Now with the military heading in the direction of military spouses, I am sure there is a program to assist you and your education. So if it was up to me, and the time it took you to be with the one you love "Go for it", at least try it before you decline it. I have been oversea (still am), but it is a unique opportunity for you to study abroad on the dime of Uncle Sam... Take advantage of what the military has to offer. Good luck on your decision, Von

dont let your education go waste.
are you from an english speaking country?
if you are a native speaker of english ie a natural born citizen of US , Uk autralia.
you can get english teaching jobs in korea which are highly paid.
but if you wish to pursue education in korea. there is no chance.
even the text books are in korean.
hence weigh your options carefully.
i personally feel you should just not give up your career.

Follow your heart, but remember if you have waited 5 years what is a few more to get your nursing degree. That way God forbid if anything happens you can take care of yourself. Good luck

Try your hardest to talk things out. One of you might have to make a sacrifice. Five years is a long time to wait for someone. I give you tons of credit. If he was worth waiting for, isn't he worth moving for? Can't you find a school in Korea?

Go with him! Perhaps you can take nursing courses wherever he is stationed. Of course, the decision should be a mutual one between you both. Good luck and have fun!

You're that young, you haven't even found a stable career yet? I would definitely advice against going. Being as young as you are..your marriage is statistically doomed to fail..but there is always hope. You should really focus on yourself, establish yourself in the world and find out what you want to do..then find out who you want to share it with...you're going backwards my dear...just always remember you need to have a certain amount of independence even in a marriage.
