Majority of girls don't like dating guys in/going into the armed forces?

oooo man you got it rough yeah we women don't like to wait years along or just to see u on shype dates besides it be far too easy for the dude to cheat on the girl and the girl would never know unless u come back with a pregnant chinese bitch then of course its over (happen to my friend it was fucked up she waited for his ass too and never cheated but he sure did the fucking bastard) after that she didnt care if he die in the war ^___^ sooo good luck i wouldn't do it though too many cheating ways and if she did wait and he die heh worst than a broken heart right there pain on top of pain no way count me out!!!:) good luck though.peace.

Again, though, that is obviously not how all girls think... My boyfriend is Army, I have no problem with it. You'll find someone who doesn't just see the uniform :)

Personally I love a man in uniform. I feel that our servicemen should be loved more than anyone because they endure, and face so many things that no of us could ever fathom. So props to you for being a real man

Depends on what kind of girl you talk to those who always want to be with their significant other they might have a problem but love conquers all....

For me personally, it's not so much the stereotype that because they're not with you they'll cheat on you, yadda yadda. Mostly because shit, that can happen if the other person lives with you and you see then 24/7. But more so the stereotype that many military men have a certain personality, outlook, and mentality. My friend's brother is in the army and the kind of people he's around there, and himself now as well, are kinda people I wouldn't think I'd be able to date because my opinions and theirs would clash too much. But at the same time, I'm ok with her husband who is in the air force. Apparently between the three branches there's some differences, with people saying that air force guys are better for a lack of a better word. But I don't have a lot of personal exposure other than those two so I dunno. :P

There's a wide variety of people who join the military for different reasons. They don't really fit a specific mold. Some join because they don't know what to do with themselves, some become career military personnel, some are officers or enlisted, some join because of family tradition. A large number of the visible military force is made up of young men or "older boys" who like any other group will act their age. I understand if someone has something against the military, but they are still individual people. As Xueli suggested, cheating is very common anyway. If someone thinks the guy would cheat because he's away (this is also a common perception of business trips), then they probably either need to break up or have a heart-to-heart discussion. It is true that the military can attract certain personality types, but that's no reason to make a judgment against all of them (male or female). I do think there are plenty of people willing to date someone in the military; however, I do wonder about how many of them are also accepting of otaku culture.

The branch of the military does make a significant difference. In terms of what's best for people in relationships, as well as how people are treated in general, the Air Force has the best reputation. I'm not as familiar with the Navy. People in the Marines though can get on my nerves when they start talking about being the best. My father was enlisted in the Army, which has a very trashy reputation amongst the enlisted. But I can easily say my father and some of his friends don't fit that stereotype.

I have a really embarrassing habit of double-taking when I see someone in uniform. I find it really attractive and admirable, perhaps because most of the women in my family married men in service and I grew up around an area that highly values such things. I do agree though that it might be best for both parties to wait until after it's over. It's great having something to look forward to coming home but it'll just lead to heartbreak if catastrophe happens or if one person is unfaithful.

The distance of course but the greatest reasoning is that the highest cheating and divorce rate is in the military... It sucks I know but hey, here's the deal, the girl that decides to date you will most likely be a keeper or a cheater. Word of advice, do not date someone else in the navy.. it never works well.
