Hi! I am coming up to a really exciting time in my life. I am 21 and getting ready to graduate with my bachelors degree in a year. My boyfriend and I have been together for three years (since senior year of highschool). I never thought that I would be with someone from highschool this long but he is the most amazing guy I have ever met. We have been through so much together and he is my best friend. We have been in a long distance relationship all through college and visit each other on the weekends and are together in the summer. Ever since the beginning we knew we wanted to get married. Then the other night my bf asked me how long it takes to plan a wedding and when would be a good time to start planning. Which totally scared me!! But it is really exciting too. Our plan is to get married the summer after graduation and move wherever we find jobs.

I guess just want to know what other's opinions of this is. It doesn't feel like we are rushing into it because we have been together for so long. But if we get married after we graduate we will only be 22 years old. Which seems really young still. But we don't really see the point in dating longer after school when we know we love each other and want to get married anyway. And we don't believe in living together before marriage.

I guess I'm not scared of making a wrong decision of marrying him, but just a wrong decision financially because we are still really young. Any opinions or advice would be very appreciated!

rcn agony auntIt's normal to get scared. It's a change, it's a huge life decision. I know people who get scared like this when buying a car, or a house. I think your ready. You're not making a mistake. I know this by: "he is the most amazing guy I have ever met. We have been through so much together and he is my best friend."

I wish you a very happy marriage. Take care.
