Heyy, my name is Brittany. I am sixteen years old, and I was born on the 9th of July. I am very different from most people I know, and I love that! I'm a virgin..I don't drink, smoke, or do drugs and I never have. I am selfish, stubborn, and most people would say I am spoiled. I hate not getting my own way. I dislike liars, and I can't stand being in a moving vehicle without any music playing. I love the color pink, and my favorite number is 39. Country music is my favorite, but I like a little bit of everything. My boyfriend's name is Brandon. I have obsessive compulsive disorder, and I am very paranoid most of the time. I worry a lot. I laugh a lot, and smile even more. I'm very insecure, and can be quite ditzy. I like giving people advice, when I can..My best friend's name is Katie. I am extremely lazy, and tend to be very random.

To give a little background, my boyfriend and I have been together for over a year I'm 16 and he's 17. He would always get things in the mail from the Army, Navy and the Marines. He would save them, show it to me and I'd rip it up and tell him he's not going. The thought of my boyfriend going away to war is something I just CAN'T handle.
I was in his room, cleaning it up while he was in the shower like I always do and I found a flyer that had the information about the Navy on it... I was getting ready to rip it up when I saw that he had signed up for it..
I always told him that I'd be heartbroken if he would sign up for anything that COULD get him killed.
I'm trying SO hard to understand... But I can't. I don't know why he would do this to me. He keeps saying it's for the best but I KNOW it's not the best for him. He always told me he'd never leave me, but by doing this I feel like he is. He always told me, "You don't know what I would give just to see your beautiful face every day and just to have you in my arms, even if it's for 5 minutes." He's told me he wants to be the father of my children, my husband, my one and only.. If he's at war, how is he going to do that??
I really want to convince him NOT to go, but that's just being selfish... But at the same time I want him here with ME. I don't want to live every day in fear that I'll get that knock on my door and having someone tell me that the love of my life was killed.
So my questions are... SHOULD I convince him not to go and explain to him why I don't want him to?
If not, how can I get over this? How can I deal with it every day knowing that my boyfriend is risking his life? (link)

I know how you feel, b/c a few people who are very close to me are interested in signing up for something like that! I hate it too. But unfortunately, if it is something that he really wants to do..there might not be any way to convince him to stay. And if it's supposed to happen, it will! You just have to pray, that if he does sign up..we won't go to war, and he won't have to fight or do anything along those lines that might hurt him! Just tell him how you feel, and see what he says. He seems like a very caring guy, and I'm sure he will atleast listen to what you have to say. Good luck!
