As the girlfriend of a uk soldier currently serving in afghan, I can tell you that Im not suprised your gf was emotional. It is unbearable not being able to see or touch my bf for weeks at a time and you have to be an extremely solid couple to be able to get through it.

cheers agony auntReally consider to join US Airforce?

It's a good intention showing how patriotic person you are to serve the country. cos not everyone choose this path. Well,I'm proud of you

She's bit emotional. Her reactions show that she cares alot for you. Can you feel it??

It's a good point. Why? cos now you hv a caring,loving GF beside you. What she lacks of, is the understanding on this matter. Got it?

I can see,Both of you are still young. Time will make people wiser & more understanding& make sacrifices in order to deal with global, hi-tech society. Hope she can be more mature, understanding girl to accept your voices.

Speak across calmly.Be patient,pls. Show that you really love her.You need her full SUPPORT & UNDERSTANDING. Every job has a future prospective,either good or bad.

For example a DOCTOR,who is married had to leave his wife alone middle of night,if there's emergency call frm hospital. Does it means doctor NOT LOVE his wife anymore? of course not. (pls use this example)

It's difficult to accept that a person you love could be shipped overseas in the military, only to never return.

Explain your rationale to your girlfriend. It is your life, and if you think the military is for you, then that's great.

That your doing this for you, and if she really loves you like she says she does then she will accept it...if she doesn't then its not worth it. Every relationship comes with sacrifices, and that's one of them, if thats really what you want to do.
