Answer 1

When is your 18th birthday? That would be a good time for a wedding. Give yourself at least 6 months to plan it if you want a larger wedding. If the guy wont ask permission of your parents then he doesn't deserve you. Is it too young no, I have known many high-school relationships that have lasted a lifetime. I have known 25+ year olds get married for the first time and divorce after a few years. So age is not as important as the two people involved and their commitment to each other and the marriage.

I met my wife and we were engaged in 4 months and married 7 months later. Now we will be celebrating our 10th anniversary in a few months and I love her more than ever.

Good luck don't listen to age/short time relationship talk. Just make sure you are both committed to each other and the marriage and that he is responsible enough to ask your parents to marry you.

GOOD LUCK

Answer 2

I think you should take a HUGE step back and think about this. In my opinion your too young to marry at all. Have you even graduated high school yet? If so, do you plan on going to college? Is this want you want out life? Most marriages at your age don't last a year and 98% of the time it's the females who get the short end of the straw. Have you spoken to anyone about this, your mother (who should be your best friend in the world), or someone you really trust and who's advice you trust. Maybe all of this is falling on deaf ears but if you've never listened to some good advise before let this be a beginning for you - DO NOT get married, instead wait until your 18 and if the guys still around then, maybe you could get engaged and see how long that last. But honestly you can ask around it hardly ever gets past that. Good Luck!!!

Answer 3

17? thats like so young! I am 17 and I am having headaches over studying overseas. Thats not the point.

The thing is, well, I think you are too young to get married, let alone start a family. And seriously, 6 months is not a long time to get to know someone. I have known couples of 6 years break up just like THAT.

My advice is to wait a few more years, if he really loves you he will wait too. =D. How old is he anyway? Financially stable? I hope so...

Answer 4

Do NOT get married. Is this for real? You will not even be the same person you are now in 10 years. You both won't be the same person in 2 years, so how can you choose to live your whole lives together? Your personalities will be totally differnet in a few years, than what they are now. And don't give me that, "we'll grow together" crap, b/c its just that, crap! Guys don't really become who there gonna be 'till about 25. Women a little younger, but defintley not 17. If you marry, you will be gaurunteed a divorce, or at least a miserable life.
Seriously, what's the rush? The only reason to get married is to have kids. It would be cruel to your child (and to yourself) to have kids during college, much less, can you even afford it? Anyway, there's no way this is real. If it is, don't ruin your life.

Answer 5

Way...WAY WAAAAAY too young and way waaay WAAAAY too short of a time. I have been married 4 years. I dated my wife for 2 years. I am 33.

I am not saying that you should not date him...im just questioning..

Why would you want to start a family, start paying bills, getting no sleep, working long hours, push kids out, worry everday about your kids for 14 years, no vacations for years, not travel the world and meet people from all over, not eat different food from around the world, etc etc etc

Why would you be in such a hurry to throw that all away?

Answer 6

Tooooooooooo Young!!!!!! Don't get married just to have sex!!! Neither is worth it! I thought I was in love when I was 17, and I was too, but then I went to college and grew up and realized my values, etc. had changed (like how many people I could have sex with). I am so glad I experienced life instead of staying with him. (Even though he is a great guy).

Answer 7

NOOOOOO

You are way too young, and it has been a short time. Sometimes when you are young you want to rush into things, usually in things that you are going to regret so much. Talk to him and if he loves you he will understand where you are coming from, and he doesnt then he is immature and selfish. Think about it enjoy your youth now, there is no turning time back.

Best Wishes

Answer 8

yes you are to young take it from a girl who got married at 18 and divorced at 25 wait a few more years

Answer 9

Way too young and you've only known him for 6 months ?? Are you sure he's not just being stupid and talking about marriage so you will have sex with him ?? Way too soon and way too young. You will most definitely regret this move if you do it.

Answer 10

hey. i know the situation that your in right now..cuz im in the same one. my boyfriend is 19 and hes in the navy..and im only 17 soon to be 18 in five months. well before he leave on deployment in 15 days we want to get married because i wont be able to see him till next year of march. so were gonna see if we could work things out between my parents and us. so they'll let us get married before he leaves. so i dont think its too soon. you just have to be mature and ready to make the biggest commitment of your life.
