Should I say something?

I just want to get some outside perspective.

I have been dating a guy for a month and a half. About a week ago we talked about our "status" and we decided to keep it at dating for now because he's leaving soon, because he's in the Army. He calls me every morning, and almost every night, and we text A LOT. We have completely different schedules so we see each other as much as we can. He respects me and my opinion, and never tries to force anything on me.

The problem is I am totally falling for him. I can't help it, but there is that internal battle about him leaving. Should I tell him what's going on with me and hope for the best? Or should I keep my mouth shut?

Update:

Thanks everyone for the advice. I think I know what to do now.

    Hi

    It's hard to live in a budding relationship but be apart, he is probably requested 'dating only' at the moment because he sees it as unfair on you and because you have only been dating for a couple of months, probably thinks you won't wait around, stick with it hun, the best things are the hardest

    Be encouraging and tell him you will be there for him , communication is really important - assumption is the mother of all **** ups and you sound as if you don't want to mess this up. Sounds like you both just need some reassurance from each other, talk if the feelings are mutual then at least you will both feel happy and not unsure about each other. If it doesn't go well then he is not understanding enough for you. and don't waste the time you have together worrying.

    Hope that helps

    Well being in a relationship changes a lot. It's weird but it does. In the end I think its better to wait it out =]. Tell him youre waiting.

    keep yer mouth shut. hes already told u how he feels. hes also SHOWING u how he feels. he doesnt need u 2 b on his mind when he ships out. he has to concentrate on what hes doing.

    keep doing what youre doing. it will grow on its own if its meant 2 b.

    speak up. If you don't soon, who knows when you will have the opportunity to do it again. Just be prepared that he may not feel the same way.
