Here’s some back story;

My boyfriend and I were in the car with his mum and out of nowhere he gets a call from an unknown number, turns out it was a call for a job. I was so excited for two minuets until he further explained that it was for the army and the base is in VIC, Australia. We live in Sydney NSW, Australia. An entirely different state. Anyway long story short I had no idea about it and I got pretty upset that he didn’t even tell me he was thinking about it let alone him actually applying... he tells me it was something that occurred to him and his mate recently and by recently I mean apparently at 2:30 this morning... he showed me the messages between him and his mate (one screenshot) and it didnt make anything any better because it just showed me that he was the one who encouraged the moment telling his mate it’d be a great idea... i was upset from the first moment he said “its for the VIC army base” and I made it known to him I was upset... and when I’m upset I tend to distance myself to think things through... he tried to talk to me and asked me what was wrong but I didn’t say much to him... he got mad because I was “mad” when I wasn’t mad just upset... he told me he had forgot to tell me... idk how but he did... I said fair enough told him I was sorry for not understanding but that he also needed to confided what this all looks like through my eyes... him leaving and me never seeing him again and most importantly not even having an open line of communication... it’s been a few hours now since I first got upset and I’m still in a shitty mood and so is he... I asked him to explain everything to me now and he’s just more enthusiastic on telling me he’s not doing it anymore... tbh by the way he’s acting and the way he has reacted to it I feel like hes lying to me about something and for me that’s always been a problem personally I just don’t know if I’m completely in the wrong or he is or we both are and idk if I should believe him... I just want some reassurance
