When he gets back he is being relocated out of state and wants me to go. But in a about 6 months to a year HE wants to relocate again. My question is if I move with him, and we end up breaking the lease, will I be held liable and have to pay a fine? Or because I am living with him in a relationship they will overlook it?

What if I'm not put on the lease? I don't know if that's a possibility, I want to move, but I don't want to get a huge fine...

We aren't getting married because we have both been hurt in the past and we really are going to take things kinda slow. We have talked about it ALOT but We cannot afford it right now and he won't settle for a mediocre wedding....

My boyfriend is in the Army and we have talked about moving in together too after his deployment. We are not going to get married either because it is nothing we're ready for yet. All I can say about the lease (because you will not be allowed to live on base) is that certain apartments and condo's are military friendly and won't always lock you into a lease knowing that there could always be relocations. Some even offer month to month lease options 3 month, 6month and so on and so forth. Make sure you hunt around and always ask. I'm sure your boyfriend will be able to get plenty of information. Good luck with whatever you choose. I wish the best for you and your relationship.

Some places if you are an Adult you'll be listed on the lease.
If you are taking things slow maybe you should just stay put where you are right now.
Because if you are going to be moving around, living together, and basically acting like you are married with out the peace of paper. You might as well just get married. Just get the little piece of paper and save up for the wedding.
You might as well have some medical coverage as you will be moving alot and most jobs don't start coverage until after 3 to even 12 months of working there. Plus military coverage is great. My hubby and I just had a baby and the only thing we had to pay for was the hospital phone.

Why don't you get married? His pay and housing allowance almost doubles just by getting married. Most guys in the service completely skip the "girlfriend phase" and go to marriage because of this.
If your name is on the lease too and you aren't married technically the landlord can make you honor the lease. Most apartment companies require that all adults living in the home be listed on the lease. You might not be able to work around this.
Hate to say it but the benefits of being a military spouse are great....free healthcare, free housing, being able to shop on base at the tax free stores and commissary are awesome. Plus the base movie theatres and day cares are much much cheaper than off base.
Good luck.

Have the lease in his name. If he relocates again due to military orders, he needs to provide a copy of those orders as soon as possible to the landlord and the landlord must release him from the lease under the Soldier's and Sailors act. Look up Soldier's and Sailor's Act on the Internet for the specifics.

If you are on the lease you will be held liable. Your best bet is to just have the lease in his name. Since he is military he is able to break the lease in the event he PCS'S.

If you are on the lease you are liable, if not don't worry about it. He is in the military and will move at least every two years, remember that!

most of the time the service member gets a six months lease and some time a clause letting him out of the lease if he has to deploy

So, he wants to "play house" without making any kind of commitment - like marriage, for example. And your biggest concern is who will be financially responsible! Maybe the two of you need to grow up before taking such immature steps into what should be a mature decision. And don't give me that "I don't want to get married because I don't want to see it fail in divorce" routine - that's just another way of saying, "I'm not mature enough to commit to another person, but I sure don't want to give up all the pleasures of the flesh". Every movie star in the country uses that same excuse: I have too much money and "stuff" to protect, and I won't give that up - but, I'll gladly give up my morality, maturity and respectability. -RKO- 04/19/07

If you are on the lease, and you are not married, then you will be stuck with it.

If you are just a Navy "girlfriend" you might consider revisiting that relationship. Also... how long are you going without sex? This concept amazes me sometimes.
