angieroonie answered Thursday February 17 2005, 8:18 pm: well you ask if i think you should marry him. my opinion wont matter there, because you just argued your side so well that i dont thik it matters what i thought because now i feel likeyou really do love him and that you should marry him. :) you should be a lawyer!!! lol. but uh with the running away thing, you should just wait a bit longer and if your mum is as horrible and doesn't care as you said, then just tell her your moving out. that way there is no reason to get the police or anything involved. :)

singursoul answered Thursday February 17 2005, 7:53 pm: Um, I'm only 13, so my advice might not be that great to ya, but I think you should at least wait till you graduate high school to get married. Then you'll be 18 or 19 and no one but you and him can undo the marriage. I think that you should not run away, and I don't think your friend Toni should either. As bad as things can be you should stay with your family and your church family and your friends. I should know, I've had a grand total of 6 surgeries, 3 of which were heart, and I'll have to have another heart surgery this summer. I've had a concusion, a ceisur, I have Hypoglosemia (the opposite of Diabeties), I might be anemic, and I didn't know my biological father until last March. It turned out he's the scum of the Earth, but back to your advice. I know it must be hard to not feel wanted, but think about how many other friends you have. Other friends that want to be there for you, and want you to be there for them. This may not seem like much, but I like you even though I don't know you. You seem really nice and sincere. If you don't go to church, or believe in God, I'm not going to try and pressure you, or tell you that you're wrong not to. All I know is despite all the hard times I've gone through, He's always been there for me, and my life is SO much better with God in it. For all I really, factually know, God doesn't exist, but I'd really rather be safe than sorry, and even if for some off chance that He doesn't exist, talking to Him, and praying to Him always makes me feel better, no matter what my problems. I know you might not take my advice, but please, at least try to pray about it. I don't care about ratings, I just hope I helped you. Thanks for taking the time to read a 13 yr old girl's speech. I really hope I helped. [ singursoul's advice column | Ask singursoul A Question ]

Or you can just move in with someone else until collage or somthing!! 16, as your know is too young, but i mean you can marry him when you are 18+

bigdoone answered Thursday February 17 2005, 7:36 pm: i cant help but sympathise with you. hugs!
well honestly i can say, what youve dscribed with the feelings between you and your boyfriend, it sounds like the real thing. and if it is, congratulations. not many people do find that ever! however marriage is something not to be taken lightly! remember that. you can still be together and still love each other that much!, how about an eternity ring!
as for your family situation. running away is never a good option. i can say this now, because not so long ago, i contemplated it myself, even worse. as ive stressed in many answers, time is a healer!, you need to persevere and your bf can help you, and it sounds like he is anyway. you should try to talk to your friend about running away.
how about talking to your parents, discussing situations, bargaining? you give a little, they give a little? maybe moving out is another option. again not very reccomendable, but it is better than running away.
im guessing your going through a tough time, i jus hope you will be ok! if you need to talk to someone theres always advice groups around, dont be afraid, as there are many people in your situation, or similar.
