dear readers,

thank so much for your answers, we arnt planning on getting married any time soon as we are to young and are fine the way we are. it just bothers me that some people seem to think that just because hes my first serious bf means we dont have the capabilities to be together in the long run. have any of you felt the same way?

Why would you ever do something you don't want to. And just because other people thinks you should? That would be ridiculous.

If you don't feel the need, just don't do it. Would you like to ruin a good relationship?

If you could see the future, and know for sure you will break up with your boyfriend within four years. You could made the conclusion that it's worth knowing another person today. But you can't know that. Then, it makes no sense to change a working relationship for a new one.

chigirl agony auntYou're right to stay only with him. Being happy is what matters, not a number of partners! They only tell you it is stupid because they are jealous of your happiness, I assure you. No one in their right mind would recommend leaving a happy and good relationship only to sleep around. Unless of course, a happy and good relationship isn't what you seek. But if those people would want to sleep around thats fine, thats what they need to do. But it's not what you need to do. You alone know what is right for you!

Love is about being with the right person at the right time. If that means your love is the right person at that time, then there you are. If it means you don't find love until you're in your thirties, then so be it. If you're with the person you love, then that's all that matters.

Your feelings aren't wrong. You aren't the first person to feel this way about someone. But unfortunately, many people who feel this way initially find themselves rethinking their exclusivity to one person down the line at some point. The important thing is to not rush into anything. For god sake if you are a teen, don't get married now just because you feel this way now, you never know how your feelings-or his- might change in the future. But right now, I'm happy that you feel this way and I hope you two stay together :)
