My girlfriend is joining the Marines.I think female Marines are gross.What should I do?

If she isn't gross already she won't be when she enlists. Hopefully a real man will take her away from you anyway. And by real man I mean a Marine.

How is serving the country gross?? I think your ridiculous and very immiture. She's obviously too good for you.

I completely understand.

I completely understand that you, being a spineless, self serving, lazy, immature little boy, would be turned off by a powerful, hard working, cause-fighting, kick-butt woman.

I totally get how serving a cause greater than yourself and defending our freedoms would turn you off.

Really, it totally makes sense that a woman with purpose, moxy, intelligence, and drive would completely gross you out. you are, if we'll remember, a spineless little worm.

Honestly, you gotta get over it. If you really love her then you will do just that and accept her for who she is. What exactly about her being a Marine grosses you out?

Sounds like you're afraid her being a Marine will make you seem less manly.

Either way, she chose this before you so don't try to stop her.

what should you do? grow up...

Again, if you love her. Then support her. God Bless the USA.

Well, you can either support her or leave her. This is her dream. If you stay with her and stay grossed out, your relationship will go nowhere. And she'll feel unloved. Do what's best for her if you love her so much.

marine or not. if you base your decision to be with her off of her career you need to evaluate your perspective on life.

you need to get your priorities straight, your not the center of the world

Old Guy

Join with her; perhaps your perception of females Marines will change

rememberthecole

You knew she was planning on it before you started going out and now you are having a problem with it?

I think she needs to get a new boy friend as you sound like a loser.

I think you need to learn to LISTEN to what girls are saying instead of dating them and then having "issues" when they actually are going to do what they said they were going to do.

let her join the Marines . There is nothing wrong with women Marines. You feel she can then out beat you in everything? lol it sounds like you have ego problems.

I think you should look at yourself and your thoughts. There is obviously more wrong with the way you are thinking than with what your girlfriend is doing. If a strong, confident woman is gross to you, well... this is a you-issue. Fix yourself.

lymanspond

your in luck,she has a set......for the ones your missing...

Gabe

Wow. thats harsh. but my g/f was the same, she wasnt grossed out by Soldiers, Marines, or any other military, but she wouldnt be with one. So she left me. But im still enlisting. Tell her now, and leave her now, that way its not like the day she leaves when u tell her

messengeroftruth13

grow up...then get a new girlfriend. she needs someone that respects her enough to support her choices in life

King

when she gets out she might leave u because your not "hardcore" enough LOL

My friend you are the only one who knows how much she loves you? If she truly loves you, then you should trust that love she has for you and respect her decision. After all she is serving the country which is yours.
Encourage her even if you are dishearten, Tell her that her hapiness and her satification is what you want. today's marine is not bad like those days. Tell her how much treasure her, let her know that her well being is your foremost concern. Who knows if you do it right she might drop the idea of going to be marine. It is in your hands buddy. never lose your cool.
Good luck.

Yeah, most guys can't handle it when their girl gets to be more bad *** than they are... I'd say leave her. shes too good for you, and frankly she'll probably find a male marine who is just as bad *** and he'll actually be good enough for her. If you don't leave her now then she is just going to leave you later, as soon as she realizes what a loser civilian you are.

Decland

Look. Honestly, your opinion makes me pissed.
I would be so proud if my girlfirend was becoming a marine.
My girlfriend is actually intending on joing hte Australian air force, and i am not disgusted, turned off or sickened. Im proud happy and attracted to the idea. Im also joining. She will have so many opportunities, challenges, personal attributes given to her and she will be able to own you. The defence forces are a good opportunity.
ALSO, why would you be so disgusted about a decision she wants. Its her life and if its her path let her take it. Support her. SHe will need somebody, not somebody saying how shes now ugly.
If you really liked her you would be there to support her.

avatar anng

support her or tell her the truth if you can't live with yourself. girls can really be cool sometimes. but makesure she dosen't break up with you.

my65swede

...just wait till she tells you the one about how she dropped the soap in boot camp..

Bandit

Run like your hair was on fire !! Nobody wants a g/f that can kick his azz !

Thats funny.

I went to the Marine Corp after High School. I can tell you that the majority of Marine females or what they call them in the marines, "WM's" stands for woman marine, 85 percent of them are all bossy. And yes the majority of them are masculine. Its not there fault because they have to train and do the exact same things guy marines do. Obviously they are gaining muscles too. If she has a strong enough mind, she will be O.K. Remember, i am talking about female marines that go into the military enlisted and not commissioned. The commissioned officer marines are actually fine. Great minded women.

The best advise you could give her is to go as a reservist. You see she can go part time (reservist) and if she likes it she can go full time (active duty) . But you can't go from fulltime to part time.

If the recruiter tells her its too late, he is being dishonest. She does not belong to the military until she steps foot in boot camp.

Good Luck. The best thing that both of yall can do is join ROTC and go to college. Or go to the military on a reserve status and go to college at the same time. Once both of yall are done with college, become an officer and get the respect you both deserve.
