I think that I can def see him in my future (although it's too early to be sure). The problem is that I need to get a Master's degree, which will take two years, and without which I have no long term job prospects. I applied to several schools but I won't know which program I get into until next year, and if I only get into one - I won't have much choice. I also recently found out that this guy has been assigned to officer training for his job for six months, and his training will start in six months. During his months of training he'll be an hour away from me, although busy during the week. After his training is over, he's going to be put on assignment somewhere for two years (I don't know how much choice he has) and then maybe made to move again. I haven't gotten too many details yet. So now I'm not sure what to do. It seems like our paths are meant to diverge? At the same time, we've only been dating for two months and I feel its too early to start bringing up the future. What do I do? Reply to this Question

If you want to know how he feels about it all though, you could just mention something in a casual way, or say, I know its a bit early... but... Could be he's wondering the same things as you.
