I am 21 first of all. Second I know he wants to get married. He asked for my ring size and he said he wants to prove he loves me. I just dont wanna rush in to something like marriage. We both love each other a lot.

Suggest a promise ring for now....that's how my husband and I started out. Smaller ring..just as large a commitment..we have been together now for 16 years.

21 or not, it isnt age that determines your maturity. It is how responsible you are and think things through. It is not true that 21 is young, I was as well when i got married. And I can assure you it is the best decision I have ever made. Every female on earth will go through some sort of nervousnes, but there is a difference between nervousness and doubting. If you're doubting think twice as hard. As far a financial stability goes and everything else that comes with marriage, I am sure you two can work on it together, its what marriage is about. It will always be a little hard in the first year then things start running so smoothly you'll be happy you made that choice. Good luck to ya!

21 is pretty young to be married. I say wait until you have done most of the things you want to accomplish before getting married. Marriage has a way of sidelining many things. You should both be secure financially, never marry someone with horrible credit. You should both be mature and age does not make you mature. I know some 50 yr olds that are childish. Like you say don't rush it it is true love it will last. Best wishes

If you are not ready to marry then he should respect that. It does take time to get to know each other and to see if this is the person God wants you with. First of all we are to marry in the Lord because all else will fail. Dating is Gods design before marriage and that means we are not to have sex until we are married. So you are doing what's right not to rush into something that you don't know if you will have a year from now. Seek God on your heart decisions in life He will never lead you wrong. God bless you.

You said you wanna not in rush into something like marriage.And you both love each other that's a good sign.Love does not mean that you enter into a ring of marriage.If you are willing to get married with him than you can go it.Accepting a ring doe snot mean that you like to wed him.This ring is for to show his love towards you.So accept the ring as a token of Love in between you.

If you get engaged, you can wait another year before planning a wedding. Or you can tell him you don't want to consider marriage until you're __ years old. You can also go to pre-marital counseling to see if you're both truly ready.
The closer you are to age 30, the better the chances of your marriage lasting.

Love is not all there is..
What is his financial future ? Security ? Potential ?
Marriage is for a long time..
Good looks & Charisma don't pay the bills or make for a good life.

Sounds like you should wait. You can wear that ring for 122 years if you like. No one said you can't have a long engagement. Sounds like he wants reassurance & to reassure youi that it is for the long haul!
Good Luck!

If you are not ready for marriage, let your partner know! Marriage is a big step and it won't work if you are not ready!
