Just another vent...

Please no rudeness. So I been going out with this guy for over a month now. And I have a pretty good gut feeling right now about him (which is the first). He is adorable, honest, and sweet :). We are just seeing how it goes between us, so we are not official boyfriend and girlfriend. We already talked about all of this several times. He knows I want a relationship with him. But from his previous experiences with women he isn't ready to rush into a relationship. He has told me that he is very interested in me. I have two kids from previous relationships and he has told me that he dosent want to become a "dad" yet which I totally understand. And that we both have a lot going on, he is in the military, and expecting to go to Korea next year. And I asked him if he considers long distance relationship, and he said yes. My gut tells me to stay and in hope it will turn into something. But I also scared in taking the chance in getting hurt real bad. Especially if in the end he dosent want to be in a relationship with me. I don't know really what to do. I am very interested in this guy, he understands what happened in my previous relationships and he dosent want me to get hurt either. But this guy drives me crazy, I am willing to do long distance, anything for this guy. He is the first that actually makes me laugh, smile, and make my day very sunny! (Sorry for the sloppyness in my venting). I just want yalls opinion, what you think I should do? Should I risk the chance for myself to get hurt? I can't stop thinking about it all, and about him. I go gaga for him.
