@Danismysunshine - "Soo, my friend ((he's older than me and just started college)) he wants to go into the army, he told me this on New Years Day and ever since I know I can't say "don't do it." But I want him to be happy, yeah I'm proud of him for wanting to protect this country and all but like I don't want him to leave me and I don't want to lose him, because then who is going to tell me, I don't know what to feel, do you have any advice maybe?"

Hm.... it depends. 

Well, how about.... think about it.

Which will you regret more, letting him leave or making him stay?

Maybe that'll help.
