Hello everyone!
So I have always given advice to my friends and to anyone else who needs it. I realized that I do a pretty good job at giving advice to people. I have been through a lot of different things in my life (like most people) so I have learned a lot from my experiences. I give advice to people by being a middle person. If you have a question about a realtionship, I try to take a midde approach and I do not take sides (which I think is the best kind). I would love to help you with any questions you may have and if I don't know the answer or what advice to tell you, I will let you know. Don't be afraid to ask, I am here to help! :) :)

I just recently told my guy friend (who is now my boyfriend) that I have feelings for him. So, we decided to be together and there's a huge problem.
This all happened at worse time. He joined the Marines and will be leaving shortly after Thanksgiving. So everything happened pretty darn late. The thing is that I'm not sure if I want to be a military girlfriend or wife. I'm great at doing long distance, but I'm not sure if I'll be great at this. We are both 17 and I just feel so young for this. But I admit my feelings are very strong for him.
I would never convince someone not to follow their dreams, so that's way out. I guess what I'm asking is what to expect when your boyfriend is gone for so long?
Any advice or stories would help. (link)

Long distance relationships are hard. I believe that they work but there is a lot of commitment that is involved. My friend is "dating" a marine and it is hard being in a relationship with someone that is in the military (especially if you do not live where he will be stationed). It will be hard, but if your love is strong enough then you both will be able to get through it. When it comes to the marines you will be fighting for his attention with the military. In other words, when someone joins the marines, it is like they are marrying the marines. The marines tell them when and where to go and what to do when they get there. Sometimes he will have to do something and may not be able to call you to let you know. I know with my friend she is having a hard time with her "boyfriend" being in the marines. Her mind starts to play tricks on her because she does not hear from him in days or sometimes a week. I also had a friend that is married to a man in the military and pretty much she just tried to stay busy (so she did not think of him) and tried to talk to him every chance she got. If your love is ment to be, then you guys will be together, whether it be now or after the marines. I wish you luck. I hope I have help. :)
