My boyfriend and me are madly in love sadly where in high school still and I want to know if it would really work to be with my highschool sweet heart for life. We never fight, we see one another all the time, he loves me and would never do anything like cheat on me or anything and the same goes for me I love him to death so what do you think???

It's certainly possible, a good friend of mine is still with her high school sweetheart, they just celebrated 9 years together. What is important is that you continue to accept and care about each other and allow the other to change. By 25, most people are completely different than they were at 16 because you experience more things and your views change. Good luck to you.

I can tell you what you want to hear... or I can tell you the truth. The statistics say that high school loves don't make it in the long run because of how much people change in interests and personalities. Statistics aside... you have to be stubborn enough to make it work. Marriage isn't an easy thing. There are times when you don't like each other, when you are more interested with someone else, when you have no time for each other... but if you and he are stubborn enough to keep finding that time for yourself, then you can make it. You will both have to over look a lot of things-hurts-fears. The best book on the subject is 30 Secrets of Happily Married Couples. It tells you very honestly that in order to stay married, sometimes you have to give in even when you don't feel like it.

It is always possible. It just depends on the 2 individuals. It is probably a little early for the marriage thing. I would suggest just enjoying what you have now and if it last until you are both ready and able to settle down and get married then you will know. That is a step up from a lot of adults who get married. You will at least know that he will be there for you through all of lifes up and downs. You will know about his childhood and all his little quirks. It could really be a good thing. If it doesn't work at like that at least you will learn what to look for when you are ready to find a lifemate.

i dated my high school sweetheart and even after high school we still kept in touch even though we lived in different states, 8 years later we got married. and it was the best thing that ever happened to us. And 5 years now into the marriage we're still inseperable. i don't know what life would be without him, and i know he feels the same way too because he treats me like a queen. so girlfriend, if you really love him don't think of tomorrow just live for the moment, 'cause you never know what will happen tomorrow.

Well, my advice for u is to appreciate what u have now. Keep loving n love will settle everything for u. BUT if sth deep down is telling u that he's not the one, i'm afraid u have 2 face the fact. At the meantime, love him. He loves u too. Don't think so much about the future. No one knows of it except God himself. But mind u.... Don't forget about ur studies. U'll regret i'm telling u. Remember to think of urself too. Finish wat task that is given 2 u today. Sleep and wake up tomorrow and u'll have a new set of problems. Constantly discussing things with him'll work. In the process, u'll figure out whether u're meant to b. U'll know if u 2 really click together. U'll also fing out whether he'll understand u without further explaining urself-the unspoken understanding. Take things slow. Enjoy. It's a process of learniing. Remember,it's the process, not the ending.Appreciate wat u have in the present and u won't regret in future even if u guys don't work out. Keep loving if u've found one.

its definately possible but only if you dont keep it on ur mind all the time. date him like you would date any guy dont pressurize it like "this is the love of my life" cause then the expectations increase and you are under an obligation too. so just take it as it comes.. and you 'll see you can make it work and wont get bored with each other.

Some of my friends' parents met in Highschool and fell in highshcool and they married as soon as they got in college!
If you love your sweetheart to death, and if he love you to death too, why can't you guys keep that relationship for forever?
But first think..
1.is he someone who you want to marry?
2.do you think you will b happy if you marry him?
3.are you sure he's someone who you want to marry?
if you answered even one NO that means he's not for your husbend.
MARRAGE is not something for fun, its not like going out with guys and just broke up with them,
its totally different story.
you better think about that carefully.

My ex sister-in-law and her hubby are highschool sweethearts. They have been happily married 10 years and have 2 beautiful little girls. Yes, it's very possible.
