You're stalling already by asking that question... you've been going out with him since 11... You're still very young and haven't even had a chance to go out with any other guys... Noth that I'm saying you should, but give yourself time to grow up... People change as they grow older, you might find he's not the one for you??? Sorry, i know i'm being harsh, but it's life.
I'm 21, he's 23 and I've also been with my boyfriend for 5 years. I'm still studying and we've discussed marriage. I even think I'm too young... Wait a while hun... and just say no!

How old is this boy? I am going to assume he is also 16 or 17 since you have been dating 5 years and a 13 year old or older dating an 11 year old is..ick.
Since you are both so young, I would say no, alot can happen in the last two years of high school, the pettiness only gets worse. So though its impressive that you have dating for 5 years, I would be highly doubtful that it would last through the next 2 years. And on into college.
If you feel stringly about this, why not do a promise ring for now. This was you can be committed, but no plans for marriage are made until you are older and ready to be engaged.

So y'all have been dating since you were 11?!?! You're way too young to even imagine the idea of the responsibilities of marriage! You say no and graduate high school and get out on your own and see how cruel the real world is (and I'm not talking about the show on MTV) and then y'all can consider getting married. And at least wait until after you turn 18!

Umm personally i think your wayyy too young. I think im even young to get married but not TOO young. Im 21 getting married in june. If you think oh hes the one maybe you should just consider telling him youll be engaged but you want like 6 year engagement. If it works out that long good for you if not we all told you so. Its possible though my parents got married at 16 and 18 and their still very happily married but thats one in a million. But its best you just say no im too young. Your gonna change a lot and theres other stuff your gonna want to experience other stuff before marriage. I hope you do the right thing. And what would your parents think?

You're 16. Why would you even be considering marriage? Finish school, go to college, get out and experience life a little bit before you settle down. There will be plenty of time for marriage later. If it is true love, it will last and you can marry him years from now.
Don't get me wrong. Marriage is wonderful, but I'm glad I waited until I was 30 to get married.

I know you think you are in love and you might be, but you are still to young to get married, you havent been through any real life experiences yet and those teach you a lot about life, love, and happiness. Just wait there is no rush, and if he really wants to be with you forever then it wont matter because he will always be there to help you through those hard times. Just hold on a little bit longer, at least til you are in your twenties. Good Luck!

At 16 you should not even be thinking of marriage. You should be thinking about school, college. Live your life!!! Things and people change, it could end up being the worst mistake of your life. The two of you could change as you grow up and go your different ways, ya never know what's gonna happen. But, at 16 neither of you are Adult enough for marriage.

Tell him "Thank you, but no", and to come back in 10 years. Don't get married until you've finished college, have a job, and have been living on your own for at least a year. That means supporting yourself - medical expenses, rent, car payments, food, insurance, etc. You need the skills that you'll learn doing that to be able to survive and thrive in the world, and you'll learn a lot about yourself while doing it.

Tell him if he truely loves you then he will wait until you are out of school. You both still have a lot of growing up to do before you tie the knot. You want to become a strong and independent woman before you devote your life to someone. Good luck and be strong!

You are way to young to get married. There's a lot of things you have to experience in life and at 16 marriage isn't one of them.
