go to college, it will change your mind. you sound young. enjoy life before you commit to marriage.

take a moment to realize that he may be also thinking this way.

A lot of women "Love a man in uniform" but few realize the time dedication and sacrifice that involves. (for the wife to)
They begin to resent the service and feel they are compeating with it.
We miss birthdays, anniversarys, graduations, Christmas, summers, births, funerals.....a big part of our lives.

Thing to remember is this.

This job...the military...
It isn't what we do....
It is who we are....

It isn't just a job....it's a lifestyle.

You either understand that or you don't.

And, I know a lot of guys in the military that don't cheat....ever.
You think there is a lot of opportunity for those fellas in Afghanistan or Iraq?

Maybe sailors have more opportunity but I rather doubt the guys at the pointy end of the stick have much time or opportunity. They are too busy trying to get thru another day.

you're obviously not ready for commitment
if you were, you wouldnt have said youd wait because things might change, as in your feelings might change

i suggest you figure out how you really feel about him

you're obviously not ready for commitment, too immature to handle this, and unsure of how you feel about him

being a military fiancee/wife is the hardest job. you have to know he has to put his country and his job before you every time, you cant do anything to change that. you can be without him for months and months at a time, whether he's deployed or on a TDY. you have to be able to stand on your own too feet while he's away, you might be in a whole different state, city or even country while hes away depending on where you guys are living due to his orders that could mean be away from family.

if you have any doubts about marrying him don't tell him you'll marry him, that'll do nothing but hurt him and you. if you think your mind and feelings will change due to school, you're not ready and should not be getting married...

its also clear you're not ready based on your other questions.

Honestly, it sounds as though you are not ready for the commitment. Lots of guys want to get married before separations. And that is a WRONG reason for getting married - is why so many military marriages fail. For both of your sake, just wait. Keep in touch with him, but don't lead him on. Telling him you would be "ok with" having a ring sends the wrong message, exp if you are already feeling like things will change when you go off to college.
