Unfortunately there is no magic crystal ball when trying to discover if a relationship is going to last. The only way to truly tell is to give it the test of time. While your friends might be a little too pessimistic, they are trying to protect you. The honest to goodness bottom line is that while people are dating, they are trying to put their best foot forward to win the affection of their sweetheart. As time goes by and a relationship becomes more established, people get more comfortable in a relationship because they don't fear the relationship could end at any time. Thus they tend not to put as much energy into the relationship in general or into hiding the parts of their personality they were afraid to show in the beginning.
I will admit that fights over other girls sends up a red flag to me in general, but without details, it's hard to say if it's a serious issue. I would suggest being excited about your relationship, but taking it slow and trying not to expect too much too soon. Continue to work on being a lovable person yourself and let your relationship mature. If the two of you were meant to last...you will.

I think when you're in a relationship, questioning whether or not it'll last, it probably won't. Stop listening to what other people say and just go with it. If it doesn't last then it doesn't just live in that moment and try not to think of what may happen next. I think what makes a relationship so great is that it's just so unpredictable. So, just ignore what your friends are saying and enjoy the relationship you're in. You never know, maybe it will work. Good luck!

You will last if you both want it to last. The fights about other girls thing is the only edgy thing about it. If it is just a bit of jealousy thing then that is not big deal. Trust me its those buzz things that turn into a long range relationship. So really you just have to believe what is going on in your heart. And really who cares about how long it lasts, as long as you are having fun right now and loving it right now, just stick with it and be happy!!! I really hope that helps you out

4 months is kind of short and if you're caught up in the romance of things you may not be seeing clearly to understand things about how you get along, his character and what kinds of decisions he makes. It could last, I've had friends who off and married after 2 weeks and they were married for life, but others where they dated for 5 years and then broke up so I don't know what to tell you but it's better to have given love a chance than to not try out of fear that it might not work.

Okay, I pretty sure you are pretty young--which is under 21 for me. First of all do not worry about other peoples feelings about your relationship--be happy in the moment--I will say from My experience and your friends it won't last--but this is Your experience and it may. No one knows---it will last as long as it will--no one knows-stop worrying about it and be happy knowing you love him and he loves you. Time will tell.

the key thing that gets me in this, "the occasionally fights over other girls", either your too jealous, or he is a cheat. It won't last.

you can't really predict how long a relationship will last. don't listen to what your friends say, just do what you want to do and what you feel is right.

Really listen to your friends, and you used the word "but"....that negates everything you said before it!
