If you want to talk, talk to your friends. If you want a girl to like you, listen to her, ask questions, and act like you are on the edge of your seat.

Actually, they are in the business of building machines who will obey without questioning orders. That is the number one purpose of military training. Take a person who thinks for himself, break him down, and turn him into someone who does what he’s told. That’s the one aspect of military service that has always seemed like a major turn-off. The military does not seem to be a good fit for someone who is individualistic and independently-minded. Having said that, I have great respect for people who volunteer to serve.Veteran status has many after service benefits including free burial, schooling, and health options, but the main things to gain from the military are discipline and laser focused job commitment…

You essentially upped your VALUE in her eyes by showing her that, if she wants you, she has to at times do things that you like to do. You are SOMETHING after all. You are NOT FREE. If she wants to hang with you, it's going to cost her something — time, effort, money.

I have thought about this myself. I never served, but neither did 90-95% of my peers. (I'm Gen X). While I admire those that served, don't feel guilty that you didn't or envious of those that have.I understand how someone who has not served in the US armed forces may feel that way.
The service in the US teaches leadership, how to lead other men in combat arms (mostly). This requires thought synthesis and on the spot judgement, hardly the realm of the mindless automatons most “free thinkers” believe members to be.
military servicemen and women deserve respect.I have thought about this myself. I never served, but neither did 90-95% of my peers. (I'm Gen X). While I admire those that served, don't feel guilty that you didn't or envious of those that have.
Now, if you were part of the Greatest Generation (WW2) and didn't serve, than I would see a problem there.
How did guys like Sinatra (who claimed 4F) and John Wayne go through life and not feel ashamed or guilty for NOT serving when just about every Tom, **** and Harry went in.
Heck, my Italian-American Grandfather was 33 when the war broke out. He served in the Navy when he was 36 in 1944-45, despite having an infant at home. He was older and didn't have to serve, but he did anyway and I respect that.
You shouldn't be envious of anyone. Go live your best life and stop comparing yourself to others.Have some friends who went in no officers but have mixed emotions about their time in.Anyone want to chime in?

If true, wouldn’t that create the problem of “too
many chiefs, not enough indians”? How can you have a hierarchical organization where everyone is a leader? Who’s going to be following those leaders?
And I’m not saying that soldiers on the battlefield are “mindless automatons”. Clearly, they have to make tactical decision based on situational analysis. I was talking about something broader, namely the culture of conformity that MUST exist in any functional military organization. You follow the orders of your superiors. You don’t substitute your judgment for theirs. If you do, you will be charged with insubordination.
The military in Western countries went down hill like the education systems. There is nothing to be envious about being stuck in it. There are ups and downs in being in an army depeing on your role in it, but the biggest up is the training and education they finance you when you get out. Of course the downside is that you are a cheap disposalbe meatbag that can be send off to war to get killed. And the propaganda you are subjected to.Have some friends who went in no officers but have mixed emotions about their time in.Anyone want to chime in?
"well off" do send their children to the military. Not in the same numbers for obvious reasons but there are kids from all sorts of families in the military.No, you should not be envious of those who join the military. Ever wonder why the well-off don’t send their children into the military?
The military does positive things for our country and builds character. We are grateful for those who serve. However, in modern times it is basically a Federal jobs program.
Everything you said before "having said that" is the opposite of reality. And that has been the case for at least the past 100 years or so. In fact, "individualistic and independently-minded" is the trait you can describe most servicemen.Actually, they are in the business of building machines who will obey without questioning orders. That is the number one purpose of military training. Take a person who thinks for himself, break him down, and turn him into someone who does what he’s told.

Don't always be the one putting yourself out for her. Don't always be the one putting all the effort and work into the relationship. Let her, and expect her, to treat you as well as you treat her, and to improve the quality of your life.
