Hey, I am 20 years old, have been dating my ONE (that man is the best that has ever happened to me) for going on 3 years, and we have been living together for almost 2.
My advice to you is this:"Time will tell". I don't know how many long term relationships that you have been in, and you might just feel like,"Oh wow, 6 months, and we are both still so happy, he HAS to be the one."
And that may be true, but just to be sure, seriously think about my advice to you.
1). Live with him. I'm serious! You two get a small apartment together and see what happens. Honestly, you will find out so many things (big and minor) about your significant other that you very likely wouldn't have know about them until you came back from your honeymoon otherwise. And after the wedding is NOT the time to learn that your new hubby likes to play his music really loud during the evening (my man doesn't do this, but the jerk next door does.) PLUS, it will give you a "wake up call" to the real world of being husband and wife, and having to pay the bills together.
2.) Why NOT wait?? Personally, I know FAR TOO many girls from my senior class that are married, some right out of high school. I think they are nutts!! I love my man, and we have such a great relationship. And I want to put some "age" on our relationship, to give it a better chance of surviving in the long run. I refuse to marry my man until I am 23/24 years old (he will be 25/26).
Because I will have a steady job/starting my career, gotta save up some money!, have some years of college over with, and did I mention have more money saved up for my dream wedding? :)
Anyway, I say wait. I know, I know, I need to follow my own advice! 'Cause I can not stop myself from going to wedding planner/ album/ shopping websites and it's driving me crazy! But believe me, If you two want to spend the next 70/80 years together, another 1/2/3 years before you get married wouldn't hurt, would it? :)
(btw, sorry! I didn't mean for my reply to be this long! >.

OK, I think you should ask him how he feels. Well actually ask him flat out, "Do you want to date me? Or do you want to be friends?" I think it's important for you to ask him before you make any assumptions, because who knows what might happen. So just go ahead and ask him if he wants to date you or not. ;)
