I have found my one and only. I know it I have never ever felt this way and its only been 1 week.
We're together every day and it just feels amazing.
The thing is that last nite we were talking about getting married and he asked me if it would be too soon to ask me to marry him I dont think so (I know I sound crazy) but I really love him. I know that our families wouldn't be too thrilled. So How long should we wait or do we just go with the feelings??
I went to high school with him so its not like I dont know him.

Why deny yourself the thrill and excitment of dating, getting to know one another, engagement and wedding planning? So get a promise ring.....have a small party....announce it on mountain tops, tell the tollbooth operator...everyone you meet... sing it out loud "I am in love"..... have some fun...but don't rush....
True love is not a feeling. It is a commitment, a behavior and an attitude. Learn to support, encourage and communicate with each other. Find out as much as you can about yourself and your mate. God Bless.

A week?? No way...there's no way you can know someone well enough in just a week's time to get married. You went to high school with him? What do you mean? Just classmates? Were you high school sweethearts? Admire him from a distance?
If you marry now, it would be doomed to failure. Wait a while. I don't mean a month or so either. It takes time for a couple to get to know each other well enough to know that they want to spend their lives together.
You need to date for a year or so before you even start talking about marriage. Do you understand that marriage is the biggest commitment you can make to one person? I don't think you do. You didn't mention your age but it seems you are very young. You need to slow things down...WAY down.

Although there have been people who enjoyed successful and loving marriages who knew each other for only a few days, that's rarer than a four-leaf clover. Going to school with a person is NOT the same as living with him. Admit that you're quite attracted, and would like to continue to go out with him - but you're not a giggling dimwitted schoolgirl any more and he's not a gangly pimply gawk of a stumbling teenager either. You're both old enough to take this slowly and carefully. Y'gots a lifetime ahead of ya - don't muck it up in the first third of it!

How old are you? If you're younger (like in your early 20s) I would wait. There's no rush! My boyfriend and I have been toegther over two years and we both know we're getting married, but like I said, where's the fire?
What you can do that involves getting married, but not right away, it get a giant glass, and start to put money in it. Fill it with change. When you get enough money to either elope or have a honeymoon, t hen start to plan on getting married.
But really, I know it seems like you're ready, and you probably are, but there is SO nothing wrong with waiting. Wedding gowns, cakes, venues, and even your boy, will still be there in a couple years. Enjoy just being together for now.

if you really love eachother their shouldn't be a rush. Risk what you can afford not what might cost you all your life. i don't know you guys but take your time. Even if you feel that you are ready it shouldn't be that way it usually just happens. Always have a second plan.... llike see if your families get along,,, see the habbits. try to see the bad things your going to thave to deal with instead just the good things.. nothing good nor bad lastest for ever... remember. Mirrage is not only base on love think about it and talk it over. tell him that you love him and you want to see several things like litttle details you left a side... do you guys ever have family reunions with both of the families??? see how he reacts to most of the situations most importantly talk to him. if he really loves you he won't feel offended and he will understand but remember their only so much a person can put up with and so much you can do to make things work

i do no longer think of you're waiting for marriage, the two. What sounds like bliss real now will probable substitute right into a style of entrapment somewhat speedy. there is gentle-years in own progression occurring between 19 and 25. i've got run into too many people who have been given married and started out a relatives real out of highschool without getting their careers going first. think of being caught beginning from scratch with a pair of youngsters to look after. you could besides have a verbal substitute with him, tell him which you the two ought to fairly concentration on your practise and careers, and then make plans for marriage with each and all of the products in place... it won't be breaking apart, yet putting off the marriage until you're the two extra effective suitable for the household projects. i could additionally advise taking slightly day out to have a actual social existence without being tied right down to a guy who has yet to fairly improve up. some "wild oats" on the same time as in college now, ought to save you from be apologetic approximately and an early divorce.

New Love is always fascinating and mind boggling. You Both have not had time to really get to know each other well. There may be issues there that you both have not dealt with, that may later cause problems in the marriage. Do not rush marriage. So many have and later ended up in Divorce Court. At least a year or two of really getting to know each other before you say I Do and he don't...Get the picture..

You only have to wait as long as you want. I was dating my fiance for a little over a month when we got engaged. Our parents weren't thrilled but we made it a long engagement and they got to see over that time that we really do love and care about each other.

you always have those butterflies when you first meet someone. but sometimes, that feeling wears off, ECSPECIALLY when you live with someone then you find out all of the annoying things they do. remember that marriage should be for life, and divorse is not pretty. take time to get to know one another, enjoy it, there is no rush in getting married. even if you say right now, i dont want a big wedding, believe me you do! every girl does! so take the time to plan it out and do it right so later on you wont be saying i wish i did it this way....

Thats not a question to ask a bunch of cyber people that you don't know, thats a question you're gonna have to answer yourself. Who is anyone but you to tell you when you are ready to get married? You gotta go with your heart, but you have to be smart about it. Give it some times and let your feelings make your decision. My best advice is that marriage isn't something that needs to be rushed.
