Is this a Good Reason for enlisting in Marine corps?

OP,

Don't be so hard on yourself. You are young, so have fun dating.

Secondly, the military does not have a monopoly on the word "serve." You can serve in ANY job, project, volunteer effort, or interaction.

Many people get a 2nd lieutenant commission AFTER graduating college, but I hardly see the point in this. You've already done college. Why join the army? Many of those people did not prepare in college and took classes that are not marketable (e.g., social sciences). These people represent a glut of military officers that has lowered intelligence standards. From a study (see source in comments):

Officers are actually less educated today than officers of the past. For example, 41% of new Marine officers in 2014 would not have met the intelligence standards demanded of officers in World War II.

"In this paper, we show that the quality of officers in the Marines, as measured by scores on the General Classification Test (GCT), a test that all officers take, has steadily and significantly declined since 1980.[6]"

I suggest people map out their education. GET A MARKETABLE SKILL. Don't waste your time with silly "discipline training" and the many military hazards.

The big X factor is the risk of the military. You might deploy. You might be in combat. There are also those other things I mentioned that are higher for vets than civilians: PTSD, LEGAL drug use, smoking, domestic abuse, divorce, suicide, compulsive sexual disorder, etc. If you'd like more information on this aspect, then please check the comments for my expanded answer. It's a Yahoo*Best*Answer.

Join the Army if you want to be a Soldier. Next, stop being a weakling and develop a backbone. You don't even know if you qualify yet. Leadership is not only about control and power. The highest levels are transformational. You are talking about positional leadership and imposed, a lower level of leadership. You going and trying to hurt one another indicates you would be bad business leading subordinates. I would not be shocked if you set them up for failure. You can't even figure out why you want to join. If you are concerned about blocking you should focus on an entry level McDonalds job, get your life together and in a few years figure it all out. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA

See your local Marine Corps Officer Selection Officer (OSO) concerning the Platoon Leaders Class (PLC) Program..........

Never base your goals and dreams on a other person's opinion. And never date someone who doesn't support your goals and dreams. Someone who truly loves and supports you does not hold you back for their own selfish reasons. YOU block HER, and then go after your goals.
