Leaving for Marine boot camp and having a girlfriend back home?

I leave for MCRD Parris Island in September for the normal 3 months it takes to earn the title U.S. Marine. This has been my only aspiration for the past 4 years of my high school career and I am so ready to finally go. However, 2 months ago I met my girlfriend and we've been happily together and really close. We broke up once when she thought it would be easier for both of us when I leave, but got back together a day later when we both felt strongly that breaking up was the wrong thing to do.

With the generation today, and all that comes along with it (cheating, lying, deceit) I just feel things will change. We are true to each other and I will never lie or cheat on her. I feel that this relationship can actually go somewhere because we do everything together and are even going on vacation this summer. I know time is the true test to everything, I just have such strong feelings for her and just tears to think of us breaking up.

I am sure this is without a doubt, a problem that a lot of military men face and just wanted to get the view of someone who has gone through this.
 
ive gone Thur something similar . my advice would be to stay together , but be for real when you leave tell her she is free to do what she wont's but that you hope she is true to you . if she loves you she will most likely be true to you ..and if not then when you get back and find shes cheated or been with other men it wont be such a shock . im just saying prepare yourself , just in case .
hope this helped
 
I think it is a shame you have to leave your girlfriend, you should make your mind up fast, think of what is more important your girlfriend or your job. personally i would pick your girlfriend, she probably really loves you and you need to stick with her or she is likely to cheat on you and get off with someone else.
your choice
