Hello, Im 17 and I plan on joining the marines after I finish high school and I have like 10 and a half months maybe? Before bootcamp? I think? Or maybe longer, who knows. I am currently applying NOW so I can do the PT's (twice a week) with my local marine base so I can prepare BEFORE I head out to bootcamp. I haven't actually started the PT's yet but I will once I finish all the signing up process. I am VERY intimidated by everything and I doubt my physical abilities which is fair because I can barely do a single push up as embarrassing as it is to admit... and im also 215 pounds. I will start going to the gym soon to lose weight and gain muscle. I will try my best to go everyday. I do want some advice on what to focus on to physically prepare myself for the challenges I might face. Obviously losing weight, but like what machines or exercises should I do to really make my life so much easier down the line because im genuinly so weak?? Sorry if I didn't explain things well but I would appreciate all help😥

Me and this girl have been talking for 3 months and we've gotten really close and I'm ready to ask her to be my girlfriend soon. On Friday we were at a school club together and we were more flirty that day. She was more touchy and she touched my hair to fix it. We're sitting down after our club ended and she's staring into my soul for some reason. I start to panic because we were holding eye contact for 20 seconds and I ask her "why are you looking at me like that?" SHE DOESNT RESPOND. She ignores my question completely and is still looking into my eyes and I ask again "what?" She ignores me again </3 and she flutters her eyes 3 times and I'm not sure if she wants to kiss me or not but I freak out because I don't want to make her uncomfortable so I ask her about her nails to change the topic THANKFULLY. I really don't know if she wanted to kiss me but it was so scary
