Should I wait or move on?

Keep him in your mind. If someone comes along that floats your boat more than him go for it.

That’s useing him, is’nt it!

Don’t they always say “Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all?” Enjoy your time together, don’t make it anything serious if you aren’t willing to WAIT for him. It isn’t about if you should or shouldn’t, it’s about if you really want to.

Idk if he really wants to…and it’s hard to get him to talk about his feelings…

He is about to walk into a very difficult situation. Girls are probably the last thing on his mind right now.

i agree with johnpowell.
long distance relationships can work.

It might be really tough for him to have a girl back home. As mentioned above, the last thing someone needs to add to the stress of war is if his girl is being faithful or not.

I’ve never been in a war, but as a touring musician I’ve felt the exact same things. It’ll rot you away from the inside out.

I highly recomend you watch “Jarhead”. You’ll understand what he’ll be going through.

If you aren’t sure you will be able to wait for him while he is gone, I think you should end it now. His life will be in danger, and it won’t help him to wonder if you will be there for him when he gets back, or go through the pain of not hearing from you if you tire of waiting. If you are going to start something with him now, be sure you can commit to him fully. Anything less would be unfair to you both.

Keep adoring him, I’m certain that he can certainly use your friendship while away, but you must remember that you’re not in a relationship. You need to be frank with yourself and not fantasize about a relationship that doesn’t exist. Accept it for what it presently is, a good friendship, and act accordingly.

have you ask him what he thinks?
but even then if it’s not serious then what is there to wait for. That’s if you both agree that it’s nothing serious..

He knows as well as you do that he’s leaving. If he’s interested in having a long distance relationship, he’ll bring it up. I suggest just leaving it up to him—he’s the one who has to deal with the stresses of boot camp, Army life and the specter of people soon shooting at him. The best thing you can do for him is to be the best friend you can be. Don’t hide your feelings, but don’t mention them overtly. He’s got a lot of stress coming—don’t add to it.

And take johnpowell’s advice. If, after he leaves, no one comes along that you like as much, then maybe something will come of it. But don’t put all your eggs in his basket or you might miss Mr. Right.

You’ll need a good talk to put things into perspective. Are you to really into the process of being in a relationship or is it just a “fling” and on this base you’ll see things more clearly. If this story is turning into a relationship don’t neglect the distance. Trust will be the base of your story.If it’s just a “fling” well I guess you should make it the best ever. Some long distance relationship work as well as some fling leads to a love story.

Move on. One week isn’t long enough to build a foundation that will last for 8 weeks apart, let alone the years he’ll probably be gone once he’s deployed.

I completely agree with cwilbur.
