WestPoint is not the only college for serious career soldiers. Good officers come out of ROTC and OCS as well. Look into those options. Anyway, you're in luck because I recently dropped out of there and you seem to be about to make the same mistake I did.

If you're career is the only thing you are looking forward to in life there is something wrong. Being in a stressful environment will distract you from this fact but it will keep coming back up I promise you that. Get your personal life in order before you try to put yourself through some tough shit. Keep working out, find some real friends, learn to enjoy people's company again. There's more to life than the Army.

If you're really serious about going to the academy get comfortable asking people for help especially in school. Chances are you will not be the best at anything while you are there (AND THATS OK). You are also going to need to get comfortable with yourself, not to the point of complacency but to where you can fail at something a few times without thinking you're an embarrassment. Don't let your self worth ride on your accomplishments or your ability to get girls. Self worth is kind of complicated thing for me and someone else could probably give better advice on it.

Anyway hope some of that was helpful best of luck man.

There isn't anything in my life that's exciting or interesting. I tried to be more exciting by talking to girls but if anything tat showed me how socially retarded I can be.

The army seems like an out to me, I've always been interested in military history and other military related stuff and it seems like a way for me to get out of my shit-tiered town and leave behind people that never cared about me.

I'm not trying to sound like an emo faggot that's literally the last thing in the world I'd ever consider myself being but in perspective that's how I see it as an out.

You probably just come on too strong or appear too desperate. Girls can get a bit freaked out if a guy she just met is really intense.

Join the AIR FORCE. Think "career". Enlisting or commissioning worked for countless millions of people and if you do a well planned career you won't have to work for the last third of your life.

That is a wonderful and amazing position to be in. I and .milbros are there.

Enjoy history as a hobby while you help make history.

I prefer techy work and AF training is excellent in many fields. (Not IT, but .gov jobs afterward are gotten by human networking and a career builds that.)

I had big stupid aircraft maintenance fun for 26 years. (Wanted a life instead of making the supergrades, but everyone is different and learns more about appropriate goals over time.) The medical fields are excellent and offer more civilian opportunities.

For useful advice start a military CAREER thread elsewhere AND visit military and shooting (lots of vets) forums to get experienced advice at any detail ya want. I have a dental appointment so I'm out of here for a while.

The brotherhood is real.

I appreciate the advice but I'm much more interested in the Army or the Coast Guard. Thank you

I don't think it's that I come off as too desperate. I mostly think I that its because I'm really bad at texting.

I don't have a good filter to know if what I'm going to say is weird or not

>for 26 years

you mean for 6 years before you were a desk bitch

> West Point is the only college that serious career soldiers go to and it's pretty hard.
Kek.

No. No it is not. Any good college with an ROTC program is what serious career soldiers go to.

Also if your high school grades are fucked at any point during high school or not above at least a 3.7 you're fucked. Its extremely competitive both physically and mentally. You need to be apart of teams and extracurricular clubs.
>You also need a good recommendation letter from a U.S representative or senator.
Good luck bitch. You're gonna need it.

Fuck the Army. Getting your ass shot off in the desert so some white bread can drive his family around with cheap oil.

Go Navy. Live the 7 seas, fuck a different woman in every port.

In that case I suggest Coast Guard but you already have your conception of what you think the Army is like and the CG stays full so you are likely going into the Army.

I suggest you ask Army folks what the real deal is in any specialty you consider AND which to fucking avoid at all costs. Ask what to look for in a career vs. which specialties get dumped during Force Shaping. (Manning is cyclic and "the mission comes first".)

Every prospective recruit should know what sucks just as they need to know what is good.

There are plenty of Soldier forums. Use them.
