Question
QUESTION: im going to try to make this as short as possible . i don't know if its fate or coincidence. I've been single for a lil over a month 4 days my ex told me he wasn't playing to get back with me & for me to move on . I swear not more then 10 Min's passed & i was signed onto my old sn that I haven't used in 3yrs . My 6th grade crush hit me up asking if i remembered him . I'm 20 years old now so I liked him about 10 years ago. We hit it off & he is the sweetest most adorable man I have met in my life. He always puts a smile on my face & doesn't have to try very hard. I think I'm falling for him in such a small amount of time. He feels the same. The only problem is hes in the army & he getting deployed next year. He says that he doesn't think its fair to me if he leaves me here waiting for him but I keep telling him that I don't care. He means A lot to me & I'm willing to do whatever I can to make him happy. He calls me his angel but hes really mine. IDK what to do. How can I make him see that I don't mind waiting for him to get back home cuz I know hell be back. What Do you guys think i should do? Please Help

---------- FOLLOW-UP ----------

QUESTION: about 3 yrs. we sent each other pictures 2 keep up & were qoinq out to dinner in the next week.

Answer
considering you have zero dating experience with this guy, all talk of future is WAY premature; you don't just sign up to wait years without some in person, ongoing adult interaction with this guy; i can understand keeping in touch, but would advise against any emotional commitment which leads to a dependency on this while not meeting/dating others...
