It's not about you, it's about him. If he wants to go to the marines he is going to go.
And what you are going to do is either stand by him or let him go and move on.

You can't stop him if that's what he wants. My boyfriend (at the time) made the same choice. Either you will remain in contact and together or he will be Jarhead through and through. The Marines reprogram them, it is envitable because they need their minds on the game plan. Some guys go in for family, some for the thrill, so many reasons. But seeing as you guys are so young, be cool about it. Love is a funny thing, if it is meant to be it will. People change, so don't expect things to be the same, especially if he joins. I know a lot of my friends are Marines. They party, and meet lots of girls, don't think that is his case though. Be supportive, tell him how you feel, but don't be to needy or whiny. A good relationship has understanding, sacrifice, committment, and trust that all will be what it should be. Relax, he hasn't signed his life over yet, and even if he does, the best thing you can do is let him know your here for him.

Well you cant stop him from doing what he wants to do, thats just apart of his plans after high school. If he goes, then you two probably wont be together for long. I dont know how the marines is, but he will probably be busy and traveling aot for 4 years, meeting interesting people (i.e. girls too), and then the relationship will be distant.. well if he really wants to be with you he would stay in contact with you, and be fathful to you and keep seeing you. If he chooses to go, just accept it and if u dnot tay together just move on there are plenty of other guys out there. My bf was in the navy and we got together 1 ear before he got out (he is actualy getting out in 2days)

everyone i know who joined the marines hated it. cocky people there. anyways... why the marines? why not the army or navy?
besides.. if the relationship is truly going somewhere.. the distance will not be the problem.

Dump him, right now. You are too selfish to be with this man who wants to serve his country. You are only thinking of yourself and how you feel and not considering his dream or being supportive at all. He deserves a better girl friend.

you have to let him do what he wants. you cant stop him from doing what he wants to do in his life. it sounds harsh but you have to let him go if he wants too..
