Okay so me and my boyfriend have started talking about getting really serious with each other. the issue we are having is that he is in the army and after college want to go active duty. He doesn't want to ruin my life by having a family that moves around and lives life with out him when he is deployed. My question is what are some ways to get around this and if any of you are part of a military family or know one can you let me know how you or they make it work. He is the love of my life and i dont want to live life with out him but he doesnt want to up root me and put me in the position of raising a family on my own if and when it comes to that. Any help or advice would be amazing thank you

There are support groups like that here in the US. I will try to find one to see how they make it work me and my boyfriend have been talkin through the entire thing and he is set on not wanting me to give up my life and dreams for him even though he is my life. He also is scared that if we do get married that it will end in divorce because all the men in his current unit are either single or divorced due to the fact that his particular job is very risky and has a high chance of costing him his life but thank you for your help.

I'm not from a military family, but I do know one. I'm not sure how it is in the US, but in the UK there are support groups for military family. Maybe you could research some, then you'd be able to speak and maybe meet others like you. And talk to your boyfriend as well. He'll want to know how you feel.
