Question Posted Friday September 15 2006, 12:40 am
me and my bf have been together for a very long time. even though it seems like a lot longer than it really is. 3 years. he asked my dad and mom if he can propose to me only if we wait till after high school and maybe college. well i want to. he asked me. adn i said of course. but my thing is im worried i dont want to wait. im a junior. and 16. but i love him. he was my 1st and only. and same the other way. he does what i want and i do what he wants. to a limit. we respect eachother more than words could say and make eachother feel good about ourselves and the other. my self esteem has gone up so much because of him. we broke up once and it was over a girl who was at his house too much adn she got onto him adn she is a skank. well i told him to please stay away from her for my sake. he did till his bff started dating her. then she tried getting them to tag team adn stuff adn she passed out in his bed after her fell asleep after a party. i came over the next morning and saw the wrong thing. so it was discussed adn fine. im just worried im not ready to have to wait to marry him. im worried something could happen for real and keep us from eachother.

But if your love is real and you know it would be better to wait..Then wait.. If you are meant to be then nothing will come between you that will ruin you guys. Rushing might be worse.

When you saw her in your boyfriends bed, I am not sure that you "saw the wrong thing." We were not there, but that is not the point. Was it your boyfriend that knowingly put a girl that was willing cheat with him into his own bed? If it was, then that is not respectful. It does sound suspicious. You are going to have to wait to marry, because you are underage and technically a child. In a couple years or even weeks everything could change between you and your guy. Live for the day and enjoy your youth. Being so desperate to tie yourself to someone tells me that you have low self-esteem and need to experience loving yourself unconditionally. What is the "something" that could happen? Do you not trust your boyfriend? Marriage or an engagement has never stopped someone from cheating who wanted to. Don't look at a promise as a safety net. You can only control one thing in life and only then, with much work and that is yourself. [ BitsandPieces's advice column | Ask BitsandPieces A Question ]
