My boyfriend and I have been together for 4 and a half months, met briefly through mutual friends in September and were sort of reintroduced in early February. I've been through my first love but I deffinately feel stronger about this boyfriend. From the first day we started dating I've known that I can trust him 100% and he's just overall a really good guy. My parents like him, he even met my ex and thinks he's a cool guy. I lost my virginity to him. He tells me all the time how much I mean to him and how I helped him change for the better. (He used to smoke pot and drink a lot and now he's totally quit both). His best friends tell me it's the happiest they've ever seen him and I consider comments like that from his friends to be the best.
On to my question.
When we met in September he was really drunk and high and I wasn't impressed so we didn't talk. Our mutual friend's convinced me to give him a second chance so that's when we met in February. Four months is not a lot of time compared to most of my friend's that I've known most of my life although I feel like I've known my boyfriend for years. I want to do something with him that will build our bond and help create a solid relationship. We're pretty good as it is (rare small arguments that are discussed and solved within an hour or so) but I want to take us to the next level I guess. I can honestly picture spending my life with this guy and we'll both be going to college in August/September and I just want to make sure we're solid before then. Anything to help this? Games, activities, dates?
Thanks

Aw,well it seems to me like you and your boyfriend already have a great really strong bond and relationship.
your seriously very lucky not many of us get that.
I don't really think you need to do anything just continue being how you are like you said your fights are solved very quickly which are small in the first place he quit smoking and drinking which shows how big of a comitment he made to you,AND you lost your virginity to him,to me it doesnt get much stronger then that,besides like marriage but Thats not even an option just yet obviously,with college and your ages and all lol
I think the trick in this case is time honestly just keep going the way things are do the things you normally do,hang out as much as possible and have a really great summer together like doin all the fun stuff,parties,beach movies hanging with fiends camp out one night maybe just make really good memories if that makes sense because then youl be closer then ever before college.
maybe you two could get something like (sorry if it sounds gay) but you know promise rings?
or if he has a class ring or something he could give you,and you give him something in return?something sweet and special like that :)
totally up to you though,good Luck and I hope I helped in any way :)
much <3
