Earlier as Jon was heading to Ft, Huachuca from Tucson I got a chance to talk to him for a little bit because they don't have the best service out there. I told him about the conversation I had with my mom at dinner. She asked me whether I loved him and after many distractions, topic changes, and prodding I said yes. I have known this for some time now. She was a little surprised and asked whether I actually say it to him or just write it in letters. I told her that I say it. My mother, being who she is, immediately asks if we plan on getting married anytime soon because we just had one wedding she wants to know if she needs to get ready for another one.
Of course he laughs and jokes about it and says my mom is crazy then he gets a little more serious. We start actually talking about getting married. he tells me that he does plan on marrying me he just wants to wait until he's done training and is in his job.
I'm in shock. I guess I just never thought that I would actually have this conversation with someone. Jon told me he will ask m father permission first and I made him promise not to do it when they are at the range. I don't think my dad will react badly but you never know.
I know most people will think we're stupid for thinking about this right now but when you know that the only way you're ever going to actually be with that person for longer than the holidays again is if they get stationed at the base near you (which the chances of that are slim to none) or you get married then it's not such a bad thing. It just feels surreal to think that he has planned out our future beyond just dating.
I'm happy he has though because I love him more than I could have ever expected I would have when I saw him back in 10th grade.
