Replies EmilyAnn Posted at 1:05 pm on Sep. 30, 2008 I would wait if I were you. You should be with him for a while longer before making such an important decision. I've been with my boyfriend for 2 1/2 years practically and we're still learning things about each other. I know I'm not ready for marriage. Give it time. dreamweaver Posted at 1:45 am on Sep. 30, 2008 Don't get married right away just because you're afraid you're going to break up during college. If it's going to happen, it will happen. You don't want to stress your married life anymore than need be- trust me. My sister is going through one hell of a married life right now because she thought it would be a great idea to rush into the married life. If it's meant to be and has the strength that you say you do, just wait it out. Scarlet Tears Posted at 1:43 am on Sep. 30, 2008 Well if you have a solid relationship and you have money problems there wont be any harm in waiting. Beside is worst comes to worst if your not married then no doubt it would have happened in marriage and this way it'll be less messy. So just wait you'll be fine. doTHEchickenDANCE Posted at 1:38 am on Sep. 30, 2008 I think you guys should wait, its only been 6 months and as you said you guys cant get enough of eachother, but thats probly just still a bit of the puppy love phase. Whats the problem in waiting? berrycuda Posted at 1:30 am on Sep. 30, 2008 I agree with him you should both wait, if your love is true and no doubt is then waiting for the proper time would be the best answer. Everyone would respect your decision to wait as well, my suggestion is to make your plans to be married with an engagement to last until your both settled whats the hurry. TheAntiBarbie Posted at 1:26 am on Sep. 30, 2008 If you're worried that you might be tempted by other things, that's a good sign that you need to wait.

To be quite honest, if you're afraid you're going to separate due to "typical college style", you're going to go insane during marriage. All 7 previous replies displayed.
