don't listen to the people who tell you that you are to young to get married. my husband proposed to me when i was 17 and we have been together for 12 yrs and have three wonderful kids. As for the ring if you guys are in love as much as you say you are then she won't care if the diamond is fake. all that should matter to her is the love that you 2 share. you will have years to make it up to her.

You want to be with her forever, if you know she does too, then what are you so worried about? If you're going to ask her, then ask her. That sounds like a very romantic way to do it! I'm sure you'll get points for that. But...don't take this wrong...have a long engagement. 17 is so young! I'm not saying you don't know she's the one..I'd never say that, because how could I know? But do wait awhile before the wedding. Finish school, go to college, get a good job and establish yourselves in life before such a huge commitment. If you feel this is what you should be doing, go for it! Good luck!

If you are questioning your decision this much, then maybe you should question your engagement. You have plenty of time to get married in the future. My ex-husband and I started dating at the end of our high school career. We went to separate colleges but stayed together. We were together for 5 years before we even got married, then only 2 years after that filing for divorce. We have a son together and are still very good friends, but we both came to the realization that we fell out of love. We had been together for so long that our relationship became more like brother/sister, not husband/wife. Keep the relationship you have, stay strong and prove to them all that you can stick together no matter what they try to do to keep you apart. Wait till you can provide a stable home for your girlfriend before you take this leap. The future awaits you, enjoy it before life forces you to wake up.

You both are young...but if you are sure this is who you want to spend the rest of your life with and she does to thenI would say go for it...But it isn't uncommon to have a long engagement..Thats what you need to do ..ask her to marry you give her the diamond and save the wedding ring...Take your time .....You are obviously dedicated to one another but just take it slow....You will be together whether you are married right away or not

17 is a bit young (in my opinion) to be sure you've met the one you're meant to marry, but if you think she's the one then go for it. As for the ring, she's not gonna care. I wouldn't care if my ring was off the clearance rack at KMart if it was from the man I love. Besides...she'll be getting a wedding ring soon enough. : ) Best of luck to you both.

Our opinions on you marrying/proposing at the age of 17? hmmm I think there is nothing wrong with it if you guys are going to wait...go head propose, theres nothing wrong LONG engagements. I suggest you guys save money for years in order to put towards having a beautiful wedding, if you guys' love is as deep as you say, you should want the best wedding possible to express it with friends, family etc, when EVERYONE of whom you both are close to is happy and accepts it so it can be successful.
good luck & best wishes

If you are truely in love with her and she is madly in love with you why shouldnt you ask her to marry you. Yes you have had your ups and downs but you both got threw them all. I know it hurts to be without the one you love. But does it really matter if the diamond is fake the one thing that counts is that you want to dedicate yourself to her and that you love her so much that you want to be with her forever. So do it make it final. Ask her to marry you so then you wont ever have to miss a thing thats going on with her.

You need not marry to stay with her forever... I mean it :)
if you give your heart to a lover... it might be broken at times.. so give your heart to a friend.. they nurture it & make it stronger day by day.
Friendship is the best solution to stay together! I do appreciate all your thoughts.. but she need too need space for her own life.. try finding out what she has in mind abt you and proceed furthur accordingly... don't be in a hurry!
All the best

if she really loves you........silver or diamond will make no difference to her......
however........life begins with this ring and then thousand of responsibilities go hand in hand........I would advice you both to get a carreer first........a good home to live in and some financial security also........
you will be marrying .no two ways about it.........but take a little time
time always answers best than the human beings

It sounds like you have everything covered. 17 is young to marry, but you can get engaged and get married as soon as you are able. Good luck to you.
