That is the reason he chose you and that is the definition of practical.
It sounds like he had stronger feelings for the other woman, but did not chose her because his friends told him that she was not practical. If he hadn't talked to his friends, it sounds like he probably would have chosen her.
You've written about all of the wonderful things your boyfriend has said about this other woman, including "she has everything he wants in a woman except her age." But what reasons has your bf given to explain what he likes about you, other than your age? You haven't mentioned any of those.
It sounds like your bf made a practical choice with you, and if that is why he chose you, it isn't going to last. Not to mention that he sounds like a lying cheater.
I'm not trying to sound rude or hurt your feelings. I'm just trying to answer your question and suggest that, perhaps, you're too good for this loser!

You're not being rude. You're trying to help. I appreciate your honesty.
Of course he's also with me bc I'm understanding, very independent, have goals, and smarter than any woman he's known at my age. Since he showed me through his actions, by making it public we are a couple, and that he's included me in his future plans, I concluded he has strong feelings.
I have a lot to think about. I'm in the military and have to go overseas to finish my schooling. We'll be separated for almost 12 mths. My last bf was abusive. I don't want to repeat another situation like that.
