Lissa said it right on. Usually, I'm very supportive of military couples, however, you are young. You're 16 years old, and your boyfriend is nearly 18 and choosing a life for himself. Is he expecting you to drop everything to live with him? If so, you shouldn't. Focus on yourself. Education is extremely important, and even though the military has wonderful benefits for their soldiers and spouses, it doesn't always work out the way we want it.

Also, to live on base with him, you'd have to be legally married, and to 18 years old too.










I may wear the glass slippers; But my hero wears combat boots <3 I love you, Lieutenant
