Nah

Sure you can go out with him but that does not mean you have to get into a committed relationship. If you are just getting to know one another..you can still keep in touch but continue on with your life while he is away. It takes more then one date to know someone.

No. I don't think that'll work. I spent my whole life around the military, and went through plenty of those long distance relationships. Two, in specific, started well, lasted a while, and then ended when they had to go to Iraq. It's just too hard, especially when you don't know when you're going to hear from them.

I'd suggest going out with him if you enjoy his company. Date him and spend time together, but figure that after a month of being friends, the whole world will change before you see him again. I wouldn't get seriously attached to any relationship there, like boyfriend/girlfriend, but just friends. Enjoy the pleasantness of the moment, being with an interesting person, and that's all. How would you treat him if you were engaged to be married to someone else?

How sad if we avoided all military men when they're home for a break, just because a future relationship might be difficult. They need our companionship. However this fella has said he wants to be your boyfriend. That implies a relationship that's more involved than you desire. So politely decline and be busy elsewhere.

it's a bad relationship, what matter happen don't let him get you pregnant.

First of all i am all for long distance relationships and especially relationships with people in the military (considering i am in one myself!) You cant just avoid being with him because of the military. But, you shouldnt start a new relationship with someone unless you think you are compatiable and you could make it work. If you think that he or you may cheat or may not be able to make it work then dont start the relationship. Relationships with people in military are verrrrrrrrry difficult,but if you are both willing then can also be very rewarding.

Enjoy their company when their around.... be there for him when he's in Iraq and if you like being around him see him once he's back. Don't get too involved though... keep the relationship open because ppl change and you never know when you will hear or see from someone in the military. Also, you two are very young and its not smart to limit your experiences when you can't see each other by being committed. I was with my ex fiance for years before he went into the Marines and was with him for years while he was in. Not being able to see each other took a toll esp cuz we were young and had no other experiences. Needless to say he cheated (most Marines do... don't let anyone convince u other wise either their Marine was smart enough not to get caught or they're dumb for believing not all marines cheat) They get lonely too and young males just have high sex drives... its not as eaiser for them restraining from sex. There are female marines in their platoons... so watch out! Play it safe... be there for him but don't limit yourself while he's away... if its meant to be it will work itself out and either you will move to wherever he's stationed or you wait till he's out.

I say "Date him." But let him know up front that when his leave is over and done, so is the relationship. Long distance relationships simply don't work. Try if you'd like, but it will fail. It's a fling, that's all, nothing more. And the great thing about flings is that the lack of entanglements frees up the both of you to try things you ordinarily wouldn't even consider (and I am not necessarily talking sex here) with someone you knew was probably going to be sitting next to you three months down the road. Can't carry a tune in a bag? Try karaoke anyway. Don't know how to fish? Ask him to take you fishing and teach you how. In short, loosen up and start worrying so damned much about 'The Future.' (But no, I am not saying "Be a slut for the troops." That's nonsense.) Have a good time with the guy. You might discover things about yourself that you never even imagined or knew you could do.

You have to follow your heart. This is a tough situation, as many people are quite different after returning home from combat. I work for the veterans' administration currently, and see this with many patients. You have to be sure though, if you do plan to have a relationship with him, as it would be quite distracting if you broke up with him while he was in Iraq. It may be best to wait to decide until he comes home for good. Good luck!

LONG DISTANT RELATIONSHIP WORKS ONLY IF U WANTED TO !!!!!!!!!!!! MARINES ARE UNSTABLE SO IF THATS WHAT U WANT THE GO 4 IT
