Hey guys, I'm a 19 year old female and my boyfriend is 21. We have been together for four year in September.. Everyone around us is getting engaged and we have been together longer than anyone of them. I dont know if im jealous or worried. I have said to him I want to be engaged, he said no. It makes me feel like he doesnt love me that much to marry me. He says he wants to marry me but wants to wait. I want a big wedding, huge dress ect.. I understand to wait for the wedding, but why cant we be engaged? He says he wants to be able to buy me a huge ring and make sure its beautiful, but I dont want/need that right now, just a small right so show hes mine.. Because of this I have decided to go away to school in the fall. Maybe to test to see if he is my "one" or just to clear my head and enjoy being 19.. Im not sure. What are your intakes of this? Am i right to feel "not loved" or do you all agree with him?
I'm 23, as is my girlfriend. We've been together since we were 17, and we are not engaged. We too have experienced our friends getting married even when they have not been together as long.
We've also witnessed these same friends getting divorced.
I know an engagement is not the same thing, but there is no reason for you to be engaged at 19, regardless of how long you've been together. My advice is to just keep on keepin on. You know you love him, he knows he loves you. You don't need a ring to prove that to each other or anyone else.
