I love army men. I grew up in Wainwright, Alberta. Home of P.P.C.L.I. training base. Its like in any profession there are some good guys and some bad. I know alot of females that are happily married with families to army guys. I personally LOVE the absent makes the heart grow fonder aspect, and there is nothing hotter than a guy in a uniform....

i think thats just plain stupid. it's really their loss not yours. well i could ne wrong about that. personally i think a guy in the military would be awesome. if your as really sweet as you sound and you don't cheat on a girl i don't see what a girl needs to fear

Hi,

I am from the U.K and an ex of mine was in the British Army and still is.

I think for alot of girls, it is the time apart that you spent and the possibility that you could get a telegram, saying your boyfriend is dead that freaks them out.

When you are with someone in the Army , alot of the time, you do everything by yourself and it isn't like a normal relationship. It is in a way, but you spent like 6 months to a year, not seeing that person. It can be quite lonely.

Probably most people, would want someone who is always there, they can call, be affectionate etc, but not everyone is put off by someone in the military!

I am sure, you will mean someone.

I was a military wife for 14 years, we traveled all over Europe, Puerto Rico and the mid-west of America. As well as a stint in the Nation's Capitol I loved it! Picked up two languages and has benefited me in my job and life many times! There are lots of us out there!

Dating someone in the military doesnt frighten me because he might cheat or wont be able to commit, it scares me because I could lose that person at anytime. Atleast that what it is for me.

Hey,
I know what you mean same thing for me: they are afraid because i'm military, but in fact this is not the case for every women.
Keep it up dude.

keep your chin up, I have an uncle who joined the military just after he got married to my aunt, and they just celebrated their 30th anniversary. You'll find a girl for you.

I hate the fact i live in Ireland because if i was in the usa i would have joined the marines years ago and would be out in Iraq or Afghanistan kicking some taliban ass. alot of my family are in the irish army and they have been married years. i just think some people have a negative outlook on guys in the military and think they will all cheat but most dont and are very loyal to there gfs or wifes

This is an interesting question indeed. I dated a guy in the military for a year and a half we had promise rings and all that and then he came over one night drunk and beat me up. Everyone i know blames it on his profession because of these old "wives tales" as you call it but i do believe there are good and bad apples in all crowds right. the majority of the men in the military i have met were very um whats the phrase young and dumb? they all seemed to feel invinsible. (my bf was like that wen i met him) anyways, i think alot of people do listen to these rumours and then there are idiots like my ex who dont help it at all so i can see your frustrations.

I did 4 years USMC and was honorably discharged in 2006 the truth is that your so busy doing things all the time ,you don't have time to worry or scared besides the repetitive training will give you confidence to a certain extent.I did Fallujah 03 into 04 and that was terrible, but we join knowing what we have a chance of getting deployed.. and if you do get scared in a theatre like iraq then you have some serious issues

God Speed to all military brothers and sisters..

I don't see how someone being in the military should scare someone away from fear of cheating if anything what would scare me more is that they may get hurt or killed. That is FAR worse of a thought than cheating.

I think if your with someone you just have to trust them and give them the benifit of the doubt. Believe in them that they are not straying away from you sexually and believe in yourself enough that they are thinking and dreaming of holding and kissing as well as being intimate with only you when they return.

Should make that reunion even more passionate and exciting! Just my opinion For what its worth.
