How would you feel about dating a girl who is in military?

Not a problem. I was in the Navy and travelled all over the years. I started in the Naval Reserve, but the active duty commitment was two years in a foreign country. Nothing like the National Guard which serves various short times wherever they rotate you to. I actually liked it enough to re-enlist regular Navy and served 18 years in that which meant 20 years of actual active duty. I married and the separations sucked, but we stayed together through it all. It can be rought, but it is worth it.

When I was 39/40 I was dating a lady who was a sergeant in the military. It was cool. She never talked about her work but she had to do some traveling for her job and I was living in a different city by then anyway, so the relationship no longer worked for us. Other than that I liked dating her.

in media social they are hot. but in real life, they're scary, their behaviour , attitude like a man

[laraWM]

I don't date girls but I wouldn't mind dating a guy in military 😂

[andreasderjuengere]

Certainly not the girl in the picture: she's a poser.

I'm not a fan of military, and the patriotic ''values'' it usually stands for.

As a couple we'd frequently ''quarrel'' about life style details.

[genericname85]

i don't date people who are in the military. not cause if have something against military but because military usually conflicts with regular peoples schedules or a "normal" relationship life.

[Luopio27]

If I like her, yes. If I dont, I dont care if she is a princess of a country, a soldier or jobless single mom.

[Googlemyahoo]

I did. Wasn’t any different from dating anyone else. Just wanted to watch military themed movies 🤷‍♂️

[TheSpaceGnome]

Constantly worried about her safety, dreading the day she doesn't come home from a mission.

Too much stress tbh, I'll pass.

[rabbitzzz]

Would date for experience and gun training. Don't know if will work long term. It will be a shame to get saved by the damsel.

[Anonymous]

Hot as fuck especially if she looked like that. But honestly girls in the military really don’t look like her. At least not in the states.

[FilmGuy93]

I have no interest in that. Military is infamously tough on relationships.

[exitseven]

I would be good with that. It shows commitment and initiative.

[NathanDavis]

not for me...

not if she's going to be gone for months or years... and then might not even come back if she dies abroad or if she comes back turned into "someone else"

[SaoirseS]

I spent four years with the Army National Guard, except for basic and AIT I was never gone for more than 3 weeks at any stretch.

[NathanDavis]

@SaoirseS yes, I know... that's why I said "not if" lol

depends on the timing and circumstances, I for example was going to join the NAVY for a career and mainly that, but then some stuff happened the possibility of me going to an actual combat zone, changed everything dramatically so I decided not to

for similar reasons I decided not to be an engineer at the other option I had available at the time, which would implied to be gone for half the month, or sometimes up to 8 weeks

I just realized that is not exactly what I would want or would work (not the best) for me... long time gone, or work shifts that are more than 10 or 12 hours a day

and... also did quite another job, that implied very high chances of stress and PTSD because well, it could get all kinds of gruesome at times

but who knows really... many times I planned for things, and then life happened... I might end up with the right person and she might happen to be all of this I say I would not plan for, lol

I'm not 100% against it... just 99% against it lmao

[SaoirseS]

Oh, I understand, believe me. I wanted to serve, but was more drawn to serving my community in other ways than I already do. Enlisting with the Guard came with the understanding that we could be federalized and deployed overseas if needed, and I would have gladly lived up to my commitment had that happened.
I enjoyed my time with the Guard, but I intended to do only one four-year term then get out. I thought about reenlisting about this time last year, but getting engaged and married made that a bad idea. Running a business with three facilities, my own leisure activities, community engagement, and a new marriage just didn't leave room for it without spreading myself too thin. One thing I've learned about myself is I am prone to biting off more than I can chew, so some things have to go.

[NathanDavis]

@SaoirseS a wise choice, and for the better, I think

had you kept going, you could be leading a country like I said once, lmao

[SaoirseS]

@NathanDavis. I think so too. Sometimes I have more ambition than there are hours in a day to get it done, but I've learned a lot (the hard way sometimes), and I'll keep learning.
I never had any plans to run a country or for world domination, just getting a larger market share and running a healthy business are the goals. Oh yeah, and to steal really good employees from competitors. That has already led some people to think my last name is SaoirseS and my first name is "thatgoddamned"

[NathanDavis]

@SaoirseS lmao... is it really a steal? or just a better offer worth for a better employee... lol

sometimes I hear from some people that I do lack ambition, that I could have done/could have been doing much better a lot more, and yes... that would be probably business wise, however, ambition and business was not everything for me nor ideal at the time

and for me to go after so much more and "better" would have implied going on my own and that wasn't smart at the time, not ideal because I had still not found my balance yet

and being and of my own it would have implied for me to take so much more risks and taken on so much more ventures that would require a lot of dedication and effort, I liked the struggle and the challenge, maybe liked it too much and I was NOT smarter at the time either, I would have done things in detriment of my health and perhaps sanity as well (stress, pressure and over-achieving)

had I moved far away for way too long, from family, friends and my girlfriend at the time could have given me a lot of "success" but not so much of happiness, peace and joy so, I decided to stay put instead and find my balance here, which I did... business wise, I do just enough or a bit more than enough, and for now that works for me (knocking on wood a million times)

[SaoirseS]

@NathanDavis. Oh well, at this point I need quality people, both experienced and those entering the field. I've been known to skulk around the College of Mortuary Science to lure some promising ones out to lunch. Works for me.

[NathanDavis]

@SaoirseS and if they keep saying yes... I know it is for good and great reasons

that is more than fair!

[SaoirseS]

Absolutely :-)

[JCT666]

Personally, it's not for me, as she would likely be spending long periods of time stationed somewhere far away. But of course, I do respect the military.

[Jamie05rhs]

It would be weird. But I'm not against it. I'll keep an open mind.

[dolemite89]

as long as there isn’t any of that trashy drama you usually hear about with couples where one partner was in the military 😂

[AngryCarl]

On the plus side she'd be hardcore. On the minus side you'd never see her.

[MiseriaCantareAFI]

Gone most of the time? Nah, not for me. But you do you, brah

[Hardworkingguy]

I'd think it's an interesting experience. She must be unique and different

[jimmy2]

Hummm so fine let'a shoot it together and let us spread a blanket and a bottle of wine

[gangs_and_guns]

I had. I can say they love soo much rough sex. They are great partners. 😊

[Anonymous]

Why not?

Could you help me out? I need some advice..

[SlothySlob]

Does that mean I get to go shoot guns with her?
