Search Results: is marriage the goal

Me and my boyfriend was talking last night over the phone about how he hates his job (of 8 years) and wants to try to apply for policing next year
He has told me this goal of being a police before we even started dating
So anyway this is our conversation:
Him - im definitely going to apply for police next year
Me - oh okay nice
Him - yeah. I know i have to do a course first and then have to go to the academy school which is 2 hour drive from where we are
Me - how long does the academy go for?
Him - i dont know.. maybe 4 or 5 months.. gotta check
Me - so i can't see you for 4 or 5 months?
Him - i think we can take weekends off so i can come drive down to see you and all on the weekends.. but does it matter if we dont see each other for 5 months?
Me - ofcourse it matters! Its hard not seeing your partner for 5 months!
Him - but we can communicate everyday?
Me - but you're gonna be staying there.. there's other girls around you
Him - babe.. im going to be focusing on this. Not other girls. Im serious about being a police. And im serious about you.. look im going to tell you.. just dont get your hopes up though.. but if i make it and become a police, thats it.. Im going to ask your parents for your hand in marriage. I would marry you. And anyway if your parents know im a cop now, they will feel more secure.
Me - wait.. wtf?
Him - yes im serious. If i get into cop, my life is complete. I will be settled. I will be ready to get married. So please stick with me. Dont leave me.
So guys, should i be worried about all of this?
Do you think its possible he could be lying about marrying part?
Im just scared that if i can't see him for 5 months and there's girls in the academy, then he's gonna lose interest in me... or we both gonna lose interest
I dont wanna stop him from his dreams and goals though..
He has told me that as soon as he's settled, he would be thinking of marriage and kids later
We been together for over 1 year
But i dont know what to do or think about it all😔😔
by the way im 22, he's 27

Which gender would you say has to compromise/accomodate more and even sacrifice his/her freedom to be in a stable relationship or marriage?

I say both but seems more the woman lightly would accomodate and sacrifice more for a guy. I'm willing to bet some women would give up their careers and goals for a man if he told her to move with her and be a housewife. Or if a man doesn't want marriage, she'll continue going with his agenda, till eventually getting dumped. So much we do and give up for a man.
