So the problem is, do I end it now and get out early, or at least have these 2 months with him - because either way I'm going to get hurt...

reader, anonymous, writes (31 January 2010): i can honestly say the comment from the last reader was awful. the navy doesn't care about your sexuality if they do then it proves the corruption of the government and that (even though it's staring us in the face already) there is mass inequality in society that the government promotes. i can also clearly say that you're going to miss him (even though he's probably long since joined by now) but he's been planning on joining for over half a year it's clear that he wants to join and you shouldn't get in the way of that. i know someone who was going to join as an officer in the navy he had gotten the letter of approval and everything all he needed was to get a train over to the training camp. but he got himself a girlfriend who convinced him not to go. he has since then been incredibly depressed as he doesn't know what to do with his life, instead of being incharge of squads of men he's doing night shifts on a bus for lousy pay, his gf has actually left him and he's lost all self respect.
what i'm saying is, is that the navy was in his life long before you so who are you to take that from him?
even though this answer is completely irellevant given the
date i just thought i should air my opinion on the matter

All the 'Old Salts' probably won't take too kindly to having a brown-hatter amongst their midst anyway, and he should be very careful not to drop his soap in the shower. It can be very slippery and all kinds of accidents might happen in there.
Tell him he'll be much happier staying at home with you.

 If you really feel that you are going to hurt either way, then why give up two months with him? You could leave him with a lasting impression and chalk the rest up to one of life's good experiences, even if it has to end. It's better to have lost a love, than not to have loved at all.
