Not Pregnancy Related. Again. Hah.
Posted: 06-08-06 01:59am

.I.T.S. A. .L.O.N.G. O.N.E. B.E.W.A.R.E.


Well first off I think i'm going to stop posting here because I have nothing to talk about thats pregnancy related even though I feel like I can identify with you all a whole lot more than anywhere else. I mean... I feel like we're a whole bunch of girls who go out & has lunch & talk about how we are & our lives, but... Even I am starting to find it annoying that I blab about unimportant stuff... Exactly like i'm doing now. (sorry)

but anyway... Another 'wanting an opinion' topic but its not about health it should be in the relationships forum but I think I can get a much better answer here since i've seen a little bit of personality out of you all already verses people I don't know at all.

My boyfriend proposed to me & I don't know what to think. I said, yes, so technically i'm engaged. I know he's the person I want to spend the rest of my life with, i'm crazy about it, and he's extremely good to me. He's the perfect gentlemen, smart, makes me feel safe... Ect. I know you might be into the whole 'you can't love at that young' thing but... I love him, and can't deny it. I've been in relationships that were strictly infatuation, not love what so ever but this time... I just feel it, I just... Know. .A.N.Y.W.A.Y. Should I save engagement until i'm actually old enough to get married, or let it be what it is, and be engaged for two years. We've only been together for about 6 months now, but his parents had only .K.N.O.W.N. Each other for a month when they tied the knot & have stayed together for about 25 years.

Opinions? Oh, & please don't harass me! I don't want to be told i'm stupid.

i'm 15, 16 in 3 months.

Good to know i'm not entirely alone. I just feel like i'm going to get a lot of negative criticism from my family. But you know what... You're right, you know when you've met 'the one' & they can't tell me how I feel.

So thank you!

You are undeniably young- but .I've always said that no matter how young you are- love is love, &when you find it, you know it. &.You should never abandon it just because people drill you into the ground for being too young. I'd say just take it easy- don't make any weddings plans, yet [as tempting as it may be], &don't tell everyone &their cousin that you're engaged. Wait it out, see how the next few years go. Grow together. You'll be surprised how much your relationship changes [in a good way]! My boyfriend &.I have been together for a year &a half.. I'm 19, &he's 21. We've known from the very beginning that we're going to spend the rest of our lives together. I remember our relationship at 6 months.. It's infinitely different than it is, now. It takes a mature person to be in a very serious relationship. So just grow with him, &when the time is right [&you'll know it], marry him. Just wait a few years. At least 'til you're 18. :)


&.Congrats, sweetheart.

Know exactly what you mean<3 I mean... Our relationship has changed month to month so I know it'll change as we get older, but I think it can only get better from here on out. I hope at least. We're probably only telling anyone who asks, close friends, parents, & older siblings. I fear letting it out to my 5 year old sister because she tells her daddy (different from mine) everything & I wouldn't want him to know... Awkward. Haha its funny though... She actually told me that I was going to marry 'jonathan' (what she calls him, but he goes by jon) awhile back. She loves him to pieces. Haha I love it :]

anyway, sorry to ramble, but thanks for the input! Definitely going to see how it goes. For now, can't deny that I love having a ring on my finger!

haha. I am. Its the only thing I have going for me at the moment. He is my rock. He sticks with me no matter what. I have a cancer scare going on at the mo and he came straight home from work and took the kids to my mil's house so that me and him can spend some time alone.
We have only spent 3 days apart since we got together. People say don't you get sick of eachother, well sometimes we have 'disagreements' but nothing major and we both have the same sense of humour 'a bit risque' and are into the same things.

Sorry i'm rambling on now.. All love struck lol

we've had two serious fights. But the only things we ever fight about are small & its when i'm .P.M.Sing like crazy... Which he understands. Our fights never last for more than an hour.

Our future: we want to get married when i'm 18 after I graduate, then move in together. He's going to work while i'm in college (& working as well i'll have my cosmetology license by the time i'm going to university). We both want to live in tempe, where he's moving soon, where the college I want to attend is located--- arizona state university. Which is only about 15 minutes where I live now. Yes we will both have jobs. We both want one child but will be happy with what ever we end up with, less... More. We don't want to have a child until i'm nearing graduating from college.

_entomb, life changes day by day, and is very unpredictable. Nothing is guaranteed, so you go with your heart.

Like beckster, I met my husband at 16...... Engaged at 17...... Pregnant with my first son weeks after our engagement. Believe me, it's not easy but if you truly want it, you make it work ;)

in september we will celebrate 9 years ;)

Personally the person I was when I was 15 is so different than the person I am now. Erik proposed to me a while back, and even now at 17 I know I don't know enough about myself or the world to know what it is I want yet. So I said no. I told him we have so much time, we're so young, why rush it. If it is true love it is not going anywhere, so there is no reason to hurry it.

Everyone is different. Maybe you know yourself really well, and what it is you want. Maybe you feel safe and there is no doubt in your mind. If I was you and that was the case i'ld still give myself a lot more time, because like I said, if it is true love (the only kind of love you want if you are getting married) then it isn't going to leave you behind.

Thanks for the input again you guys. Definitely going to stay engaged. My heart .A.N.D. Mind tell me its the right thing to do. I really cannot even get into it because I don't know how to explain it. I love him more than words can tell.

I, actually, as odd as it sounds, feel as if I know myself very well. I searched for the person I am & want to be for a long time. I wasn't in the best family most of my life & it forced me to grow up fast & become very independent. That only helped me know what I wanted out of life. As for time-- I feel as though time is prescious because I .D.O.N.T. Know if I have all the time in the world, or if he does so i'll live in the moment. I know that if I were to tell him no, he'd still be by my side. But I think i'm ready for this. Infact, I know.

:] you can all disregard this topic now. Its unimportant!
