I need advice

Well, im recently came back in contact with the girl of my dreams since middle school and now im in the army doing army things. My contract doesnt expire for another 4 years and i feel thats too long to wait, so i was considering leaving to be with her. Alot of my friends keep telling me that its not worth it to loose my job over a girl but i couldnt stand the thought of being away from her for soo long

hi,

will you not get leave over this 4 year period? absence makes the heart grow fonder.

if she's "the one" it will work out whatever you do.

if you leave the army will you be able to get a job?

So you would give up your career to go be with a girl who could break up with you after 2 weeks?

Are you talking about going AWOL? I'm not sure what Army you're in where you could just casually break your contract early.

Most new relationships fail, so don't make huge decisions like giving up a career and your financial well-being for an extreme unknown. Either agree to periodically stay in contact as friends while you're away and see if you're both single in 4 years, or try a LDR, which is quite difficult when you've not already been together in a long term relationship. If it doesn't work out, it means fate has someone else in store for you.

Keyman said it best. This new and exciting "thing" with this girl could fizzle out before you know it. Stuck with your army career and dont throw that away.

Do not attempt to leave the army. And I say "attempt" because the army is not a job you can just say "I quit" and walk out of. You would be absolutely stupid to try and leave for a girl.

Don't do it. Omg. If having a LDR isn't possible, forget it. I don't know your circumstance but I've known a few women who became Army girlfriends turned Army wife and they were able to make it work.

How good it is to find the girl of your dreams. The one that you can say you can offer your life for her.

BUT, are you the man of her dreams?

Do not leave the army just because she is your dream girl. Love can wait. And if you are the man of her dreams, she will wait for you.

You lived without her since middle school. If she cant wait for you for 4 years, she aint worth it. If she is willing to wait then she is a keeper. Just ask her if she is willing to wait.
