Today, I told my boyfriend I was afraid he would no longer love me when he returned from basic training. Hoping he would reassure me his feelings wouldn't change and we'd still be together, he replied instead, "Shit happens." FML

I can understand why she'd be devastated. But, honestly, that's a ridiculous question to ask. If you honestly have to ask that type of question, be prepared for heartbreak, because you're not going to last. Have some trust in your relationship and support his decision. Don't make his leaving for basic training about you. Asking a question like that shows him that all you care about is whether or not he'll still care for you. It's not about you. It's about him. Stop being so selfish.

Sounds like a typical female to say something she doesn't mean to get a man to say something he doesn't mean..... YDI

You know, I can't blame you for asking him that at all. Some, no most, people change so much after going through Basic Training. When my boyfriend went through it I was terrified he would change, becoming a complete a**hole. All the people commenting how rude or stupid or whatever it was of you to ask have obviously never seen someone go through Basic and become a completely different person. It's a scary thing to be close to someone, think you know them... only to have them come back after 2 1/2 months different. So I completely understand your reasoning. Yep yep.

here's an idea... maybe he was joking. and maybe he already told her that and she's now fishing from all you for a little pity. not saying it's the case but it seems to me that these things are never as cut and dry as posted

You just want assurance like every girl I've dated. Sounding like my ex "you're cheating on me! Go get with one of your other girls!" okay.....
