Boyfriend possibly joining the marines

Elisa

So my boyfriend has been talking to marine recruiters and he thinking of possibly joining.

He first wanted to do the reserves but now thinking about being active. That’s four years without him 💔

This makes me nervous just bc I’m so used to seeing him so often and this change is going to be so tough on me.

I know this is the beat option for him being that he doesn’t know what he wants to do with himself but it’s just so sad to think about 😭

Can anyone give me their experience with their significant other being in the marines or just and branch of the military?
