i need some advice

ok so for starters im 15 and my boyfriend is 18.. im sure many are thinking that isnt right but... anyways he joined the marines... he's in basic right now.. and will be back home in 2 months... this has been really hard on me..it' been 2 months already since we started going out...he'll come back for 10 days and then leave for 4 years basically... with short visits... i mean i really love him... but i dono what to do... my friends and family are trying to help.. they say i need to chose wether im ready to commit myself and if i can handle waiting.. bc i am still in high school, still young and we will both be living our own lives... so please let me know what you think!!! thanx

wow this is a toughy

well if you both are in love then you can wait for him. i mean did you both agree on him leaving to the marines? if so then commit yourself. however i dont think you can truly love someone within 2 months it takes a bit longer. dont hold back on having fun with friends and live your life to the fullest. if he loves you then he'll understand why your still young and trying to live your life to the fullest. stay and think positive =]].

dont know if any of this made since lol but hope it did!! =]]

well not really i mean he kinda joined before we were together... thanx for ur imput!!! anyone else have a sey?!?! let me kno...

That is a tough one..but i think if yall Love each other than the best thing yall can do it wait on each other until yall can be together again..but if not then yall should let each other go..and yes the fraze..."still young and we both be living our own lives" also is true too.

i unno wut to say i mean do you know you love him and would wait for him?

i do believe i love him... i mean i dont think i would have done this with any other guy... i mean i want so hard to wait... and be with him... and i know that if that's what i chose.. i know i will be facing MANY difficult times...

well if you love him enough you will wait for him no matter how hard it is but b/c your only 15 i think you should still go out with friends and have fun be happy and the time hes gone will fly by

well yeah its a hard sitation to be in but thing is yeah you are young enough to maybe let him go and u move on etc... and ok he mite be 18 and your 15 but age isnt everything its how tht person makes u think and feel!! mayb just try and not make a disisioon just get about it.. your pushig yourself to make one and believe me that dnt work.. so maybe try going out you and friends having a good time!! youll know in time exactly what u want!! but thing is if u feel how u do and he does bout u then wait for him... maybe make a pack with him where every night you say good nite when you look up to the sky at certain time... sounds silly but u no he is there too doin it or thinking the same thought......

take care and follow your heart!

the thing is, with my ex i felt the same thing but then again im 13 and iv never felt love towrdas me, i always felt like an outsider in my famil and never loved so that might be why i felt i would wait for him no matter how long it would take. but then he broke up with me and now its 3 months later and well i still love him and i still cant get him off my mind but i know i need to move on. i dont want to dash your hopes but well who knows how it will end.

you're rushing ahead hun... ure trying to know the future because ure scared of not having it planned out right in front of you... or ure simply curious and need to know what to do with ur life for the next... 4 years? all i can say is... just keep going... if you love him... your heart will refuse to love any other person... and if you dont... then you shouldn't put urself through the pain of waiting and thinking that you care... because at times... you want to care more then you actually do... all i can really say is... ive been in the situation... and it hurts... my bf has two purple heart medals... and im the same age as you... it's scary... and we live a thousand miles away... but i visit in the summer... and it's great... because it's worth it to me... though dont pull yourself back if you want new apportunity... and if anything... keep in touch and all will go well. = ) i really hope it works out... if u need anything... just let me know.
