Marissa, welcome to the program.

Hi, Dr. Laura, thank you so much for Dicking Michael.

You're welcome.

So, I'm calling about a new relationship that I'm in. I met my Navy boyfriend who is 24, I am 25, and we've been together for a couple of months, a little over two months.

We found out a month into the relationship.

Sorry?

What do you mean by together?

You're shacking up already?

We, he asked me to be his girlfriend about a month after we dated and so we've been boyfriend and girlfriend for a little over two months.

Honestly, you think people know enough about somebody new to make a designation of a semi-commitment in 30 days?

So, no, I don't.

I think the issue is that one of the only things that I will be very hard for us to see if it will work out is if our sort of mismatched libetos are

Compromizable because he is deployed now and really is basically going to be would be a long distance

relationship for basically the next two years which is not we didn't know that when we had initially sort of became official.

So I'm curious...

Let me understand this.

30 days after meeting him, he says, be my girlfriend,

goes off into the military for goodness knows how long because you know we do have

rising problems in the Middle East, so don't presume he'll be home for Christmas, and you're already thinking about making a semi commitment of waiting for him?
