I don't want a whole lot of negative feedback & most definitely do not want to be called stupid but what are your opinions on this:

i'm 15, & am in a near 6 month (short, I know) relationship with the man I already know I want to spend the rest of my life with. He's 18. I'm absolutely, no doubt about it, head over heels in love with him. He treats me extremely well & is everything i've ever looked for in a man, though i'm only nearing 16. I have an amazing connection with him. & I know he loves me. He recently proposed to me, I said yes, but wonder if I should tell him, yes i'll commit to him but we should let things play out for the time being & save engagement until i'm actually old enough to get married, or should we let it be exactly what it is, an engagement?

Like I said, don't need to hear your 'you're stupid, you can't be in love at 15' remarks. Just some criticism lacking the rude aspect of it.

Hmmm, I dont think the decision people will come out with will matter to u as you said you dont want people opions on the matter, so thats clearly saying you basically made up your mind already, however I will comment on both.

If he really does love you and you love him, then tbh it would really make no difference to be engaged now or in 3 years or so, however dont get married till ur 18 maybe older and the youngest.


But there's there fact does he actually love you? I dont kno ur full story however based on to wot ive seen with mates etc, lots of my girly mates wen they were u age back in the day :p dated 18 yr olds etc, and they said they loved each other and lasted 9-10 months, did I love you, marry me and wot not, then they would end. So tbh id be almost suprised if it did work out, but this isnt most cases, it could work out and you could be very happy. Which I wish you are.



So, if it is love it wont make any difference on engagement age(however dont actualyl get married till ur a bit older *as stated above*) and beware it could just be words and you could be very hurt. It may seem perfect now.... But alot can happen and at a younger age things can matter alot more

Personally, I think you should just wait it out till your at least 16. It's great that you have found love at such an early stage in your life, so well done, but you need to just slow down the pace. If he accepts this, and waits for you, then he is a definite keeper.

I think you should wait.Your way too young and people change.You cold love him now but it doesn't mean it will last.You need to wait it out and see if he is willing to stick with you through everything.6 months is not even possibly enough for you to know.Trust me,when I was 16 going on 17 I got engaged to a guy I had been with for 5 months.By 7 months I realzed I wasn't in love with him and I broke it off.I have been with my now boyfriend for almost 7 months and not even thinking of marriage.We are still getting to know each other.Do you guys live together?I suggest you live together before deciding to do something like that.Trust me,that makes all the difference.If it really is love,you'll stay together but if not be happy you didn't get married just yet!

I kind of agree with the others as it does kind of sound like you have made up your mind. I know that in several states, you would be classified as jail bait and if you really love him, you would not want him to get into any trouble, would you! I used to think that I was very much in love at your age but it never worked out and I am so glad I never gave into him and had sex with him! How do your parents feel about the whole situation, do they know the whole truth? Just be careful whatever you decide as their are a lot of guys out there that will promise you everything just to get one thing and it is sooo not worth it!
All the best!
