I'm Falling For Someone In The Navy

Brittany
So recently I met a wonderful guy named Rob, we hung out on New Year's eve and it was the best date I have ever been on.
We drove around for a few hours and got Chinese food and watched the sun set from the bed of his pickup truck.
I knew he was in the Navy before we hung out, but I didn't expect to catch feelings for him. 
We sat around for a while and talked about random things and I felt myself slowly falling for him and to my surprise he said "it's really ironic I'm meeting my dream girl st this time"  and of course I asked what he meant.
That's when I found out he was only home on leave and is heading back to his base on January 9th.
All night we joked about our future but we both agreed that dating at this time wouldn't be good for us.
Except the more I get to know him, the more I think about him, the more I feel like he's the only guy I would
Ever wait for. 
So I was wondering if any of you guys are military wives or girlfriends and had any advice for me?
