Intelligent people, please give some advice?

I'm in love with someone that lives about 2000 miles away. I met him 6 years ago, spent the summer with him, and haven't seen him since. Nearly three years ago, we got in contact and decided we'd wait for each other, and circumstances haven't allowed him to come down and see me. I can't go to him yet, I'm underage. In the beginning of this year, I decided I wanted to date, and none of that worked out. Now, we've decided to wait again, but its frustrating, and he doesn't agree with me going into the military, which is my only career choice. I don't know how to deal with all this... What would you do?Intelligent people, please give some advice?
Mellisa, being an old fart I'm full of experience. (Don't say it). Going military will give you a lot of wisdom (being an ex paratrooper). You have a reason for doing what your about to do and I think you should go with you gut feeling. The feeling of love is probably the greatest experience we all have encountered in so many forms! We don't know the whole story but I will suggest this: Go into the military, allow yourself to grow and and take more time to evaluate your situation. I believe you're going to get a lot of offers for love because it sounds like you have the fortitude of a rock! God bless you kid and enjoy every minute of your life that you can. That, lttle person, is true success!Intelligent people, please give some advice?
Not sure why the military is your only career choice, but if that's what you really want to do than don't let him persuade you otherwise. Long distant relationships are never easy, but you could always keep in touch with him while your in the service right? I suggest you go with your gut feeling on this.
If it's not going to happen, it's not going to happen. And if you met him 6 years ago and you're still underage you are probably far more in love with the idea of him than with the actual him. This may feel serious, but it doesn't sound serious.
Let it go.


It is quiet obvious that you two won't make anything out of this.


First that you live 2000 miles away and then that he can't let you make your own choice.


There are more fishes in the sea.
O.K. It is time for you to get on with your life and move on. This relationship isn't going anywhere! You will love your new life in the military and if he doesn't like it then that is his problem!
Give it time you are still underage a lot can happen from now until then.
there are many more fish in the sea...trust someone who made it through her 20s dating a few guys that I just KNEW were the one...but alass were not. You have plenty of time!
