I Want to Marry My Soldier

Marrying My Soldier??

By: MissingmySolider

Written on October 27th, 2011

My soldier and i have been together for 4 years now. I'm currently 18 years old, and he is almost 21. He is stationed in Bamberg, Germany and will be there for another 2 years. I really want to marry him and move over there but i feel like im too young. I feel like he is the person i want to spend my life with. And i would LOVE to live over there. My family and I are very close and they would not like the fact of me moving there. ANYONE else in my position???

It's been a while since you posted this. I've been Googling for perspectives and to just get a basic idea for all this. I'm in the exact same position you were in in October. I love him, and want to go to the next level of our relationship. I'm also 18 going on 19 next month. I just moved to Ga from Oh on my own and It was eye opening on how very very difficult it is to relocate and start a new life with new supports (friends) , establishing income, place to live, outlets in your new location and all that. I want to be with him, and I am curious to know if you decided to or not. And if so, was it anything like you expected? Are you happy?

Your limited only by yourself. We can make it any where when we really want to or have to! Think about it as a way to see the country, learn a new culture and be with the person that you love. Think about it as an adventure.

i know, you have to be married to be over here with ur soldier. It sucks. But if you guys want to marry and you should marry because of love, then do it :) my soldier is in afghanistan right now. Im lucky and im a american citizen so when he comes back i can just go with him to the states because he will be stationed in texas or north carolina but if we want to live together and we need a house we have to be married too that the army can pay the house...

It would be different if he was stationed in the USA because i could just fly to see him alot (I get free flights bc dad works at delta). But its so hard him being all the way over there. And i cant move in with him until we get married (Stupid rule Army!) So idk what to do..

So im living in Germany, i actually live very close to Bamberg im over there every there and then... if i would be you, i would just do whatever your feeling says, here in germany you are fully adult with 18 and you can decide whatever you want to do. you shouldnt look to much what your family is saying, you should make ur own experience and if ur family loves u ur family is standing behind you every single moment of your life und supports you! i really hope the best for you too. if u guys marry, the army would even give you a house and u can easily find a job here. if not you get always supported from the state. you even have insurance her without a job.
