im sure you like eachother very much and rite now think you love eachother but the truth is your way too young. wait until you start high school at least because high school changes almost everyones lifestyle and friends and attitude. you mite end up even hating him because you really have no idea how ppl change over highschool. If he asks you tell him you want to wait for a few years

I think he probably meant "I would marry you now if I could", but, you and he both know you can't do that now. He may be a "sweetheart" for a long time, or you may both grow apart. You both have a lot of growing years ahead. Friendships like this are very sweet. You will always remember each other. You may or may not still be close when you are both older, which would be fine if you are. But, think mostly now about school and getting your education. You will be a young lady with a diploma sooner than you think. And then you will have a better idea what you want to do with your life...and so will he. Best wishes, sweetheart. Tom

O Connor agony aunthe's 14? honey i dont think he is being 100% serious when he says this - and if he is then i would be a little freaked out! he could have said that meaning that you're the woman he wants to marry in the future...or maybe he wants an understanding.

i wouldnt read too much into this - you guys are so young and dont even know wat you want out of life yet. this kid needs to slow down and live his life in the now! if it happens again..ask him if he is being serious. if he is i would run as fast as you can. or tell him your not ready - up to you.

first of all you are very young to even be considering marriage. But when you are older and the right guy wants to marry you he will not ask you in a text message. Sweetheart just enjoy your friends and family right now. you will have plenty of time for dating and love and thinking about marriage and all that stuff when you are older. just explain to him ( if he was actually serious, but hopefully he wasn't) that the two of you will have plenty of time to talk about all that in the years to come if you are still together.

He wants to marry you, he must love you very, very much, but your far to young to make those kind of promises yet. Tell him he's moving too fast and you need to finish school first. If he loves you he can wait untill you reach the legal age. It's impossible to make promises, who knows what will happen in the next 5years. When he says marry me, avoid the question and just text back "I love you very much".... Good luck, take care of you.
