Hi I am 16.f. My boyfriend and I have been together 9 months. He is my first true love, and everyone says 'youll never forget your first love' and everything, like our relationship will never last. But what if I TRULY think he is the only one I could ever be with. I know I am young, and of course I wouldn't get married now, and I have time to think about it but on one hand I can't imagine a future with anyone else, but on the other hand EVERYONE seems to think that just because I have never loved anyone else means I wont last long with him?? Is it possible that I just happened to find the perfect guy right off the bat? Has anyone had an experience like mine??

I honestly can't imagine being with anyone else, even though i'm still young. Not saying that either yours or mine will last.. no one can know that. But I think that there are some lucky ones, maybe us included, that can find their perfect guy "right off the bat". If you really believe that he is the one, then that's fine. Just remember that relationships take a lot of work and commitment, so as long as you're willing to give your all, then there's nothing wrong with having high hopes. :) [ Er_Bear19's advice column | Ask Er_Bear19 A Question ]
kimberlyelizabethx0x answered Wednesday January 7 2009, 6:10 pm: i have never experienced something like this but my best friend is right now. she is only 16 and she is completely in love with her boyfriend. if you and your boyfriend really love eachother and it is meant to be, you will end up together. In the next couple of years you will be growing up and changing. But the most important thing is, stop listening to what everyone else is saying. Just worry about right now and enjoy the times you have with your boyfriend and friends. hope this helped. [ kimberlyelizabethx0x's advice column | Ask kimberlyelizabethx0x A Question ]
WhitneyJ answered Wednesday January 7 2009, 3:11 pm: Well, there is always a slim chance that when you're with someone that they could be the one for you. I don't doubt that you love him unconditionally because we all love someone like that and more often than not more than one someone.
You do have to understand though, that every time you're in a serious relationship you have an opportunity to love that person.
You do love him now, but factor in that you are still young, like you said. You are only 16, and you have a lot of growing up left to do in the next several years. Chances are that you'll be in the midst of discovering what you want to do with you life for sure, what kind of person you are, and what interests you the most. As we grow, our perspectives change on things.
And while it is possible that he could be the one for you right now, he may not be the right one for you in the future.
You just have to love him and be happy with what you have right now, and take day by day. The chips will fall where they're meant to fall because the future is certainly indecisive. :) [ WhitneyJ's advice column | Ask WhitneyJ A Question ]
kristamikele answered Wednesday January 7 2009, 1:11 pm: I think the thing that is really bothering you is you feel as if everyone is downplaying your relationship as if it doesn't really mean anything. Here you are, so in love, and everyone around you is like "big deal." Don't feel as if you have to justify your feelings. If you and your boyfriend love eachother, tomorrow doesn't matter, and neither does what anyone else thinks. I have to be honest-of all the couple's I know there is only one who are still together since high school, but they have a great relationship. The trick was, they didn't take on too much responsability early on. They didn't have kids until they were older, and they really got to know eachother.

csmith4428 answered Wednesday January 7 2009, 12:37 pm: Yes it is very possible to have already met the one. But instead of worrying about the future, or what might happen, focus on the right now. The time you guys are spending together now is more important. Also the feelign of not being with another guy ever is a common feeling when ur with the person you love, and if you guys ever broke up then you would move on from that feeling. Right now though all that you need to worry about or focus on is being together and being happy. Sont let anyone make you second guess the relationship you have with your bf, for 1 they dont know him like you do, and for 2 they aren't in the relationship with you. Good luck hun, many years of happiness to you and your love. [ csmith4428's advice column | Ask csmith4428 A Question ]
Sweet_LiL_Angel answered Wednesday January 7 2009, 12:25 pm: It is possible and some high school sweet hearts get married and are together for a very long time if not forever. You are young like you said and another person can't tell you how long your relationship will last with your boyfriend. Ignore what those other people are saying and just live your relationship.
