Dashra,
I understand your pain, honestly I do. But first let’s just put this out there, joining the army is not the answer nor something you do to be near someone, especialy when it’s a move that can cost you your life. The Army is a something you do out of pride and honor. A since of fighting for your country and for freedom and staning for those to young to old or to sick to do so. Ok sorry let me get off my soap box on that. As far as him not trusting you, you were very vauge so I figure there are about two options. One; He is telling you this because he is joining and dont want to see you hurt and dont know how to talk to you about it. (And just because someone is serving in the military does not mean they are chasing every woman they come across looking for sex) or two; you have said or did something without realizing it or he heard something either way your best bet is to let him go tell him you love him and will be there for him as a friend then start living your life. take this time to find yourself and figure out who you are and what you want from life. Learn to stand on your own, start working on your education and start thinking about your career. Hope things began to look up for you and remember the key to any relationship is communication. Good luck and Gods speed

Hmmm….Dashara, there seems to be some information left out of this question. You neglected to tell us why your boyfriend feels a lack of trust for you. Is it something you did or didn’t do, said or didn’t say? It is difficult to accurately assist you with half the story. Unfortunately there is nothing you can do in the trust department. Being trusted or trustworthy is a thing that must be given, it cannot be earned. “The only way to make a man trustworthy is to trust him.” – Henry Stimson Your boyfriend has to trust you of his own accord, nothing you can do will change that. But you can still be on your best behavior to help it along. Never give up hope! True love never really dies, it can conquer all obstacles, all disappointments, all adversities…never give up hope on love. “For one human being to love another; that is perhaps the most difficult of all our tasks, the ultimate, the last test and proof, the work for which all other work is but preparation.” – Rainer Maria Rilke – I hope this helps. God Bless.

Did he say WHY he cannot trust you? Why all of a SUDDEN? I’m not buying it. In fact, I’ll go out on a limb and say he’s full of it. (I’m rarely wrong about these things, IF EVER. So don’t go believing everything he says. It will only HURT you in the end.)

Men in the military have TONS of women all over them. And, they are NOT IMMUNE to it. In fact, they LOVE the attention. Maybe your ex just doesn’t wanna CHEAT on you, so he broke up with you ahead of time.

Furthermore, you should NOT join the military in an attempt to PROVE something to him. If he doesn’t want to be with you, joining the military will NOT CHANGE that. He probably wants his freedom. The “I don’t trust you” speech was merely a cop out.

TRUST me. You asked us for advice, so TAKE it. We’re all telling you similar things, so we can’t all be wrong. The boyfriend has his OWN happiness in mind. So, instead of basing YOUR happiness AROUND HIS (or around him in GENERAL) why not try to find a life OUTSIDE of this guy? His life consisted of more than just you. So, I think you should do the same.

Hi Dashara

I suspect that this is more about his going into the military then a trust issue. This is a “Big” step for him and he is unsure of what the future holds and maybe wants no attachments going in? The military can be a scary place and he will not only be learning new things but new experiences as well. So give him some space…Why is there a trust issue in the first place? You don’t give us much to go on….Don’t join the military just to be with him. It isn’t going to happen in this manner, find your own career path and put your energies into your own life instead of his…

Good Luck

Dear Dashara,

The one part of your question that is easy to answer is this: Do NOT join the military just to prove yourself to this man. The rest of your question is difficult to answer because you haven’t given many details. Does he have reason not to trust you? If so, then you rebuild trust by being trustworthy over an extended period of time. Trust isn’t rebuilt with one unrelated action such as joining the army. If he has no reason to distrust you, then perhaps the issue is his and, about that, you can do nothing.

Bottom line is that we need more information to truly help you.

Best,

Dashara,
Do not join the army to be with him. You can earn his trust back by living the best life for you. If you still want a chance with him love yourself as much as you love him.

The question is, has he explained why he does not trust you. Is it legitimate, you did not say. We really need more information to help you.

Blessings on you and yours
