Basic is hard. You can't think about girls, or a relationship while you're there. It distracts you. My boyfriend was in the Army for five years. He still talks and behaves like he's still in the Army sometimes. It doesn't bother me because I know its something that's hard to get over. That mentality is drilled into them from the very beginning.
You sort of deserve that for being insecure.
And they say romance is dead..
The man is going off to basics for the military, to protect this country, the last thing that should be on his mind is having to reassure his girlfriend

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
