Time for a sit down with mom and dad. Way too young.

Do you truly feel that you want to spend the rest of your life with him?
Can he support you, and the family you will have, in a manner that you want? Or will he always be a dollar short for everything?
Do you have any plans for the next fifty years of your life? If you do, throw them out the window -- you won't be able to fulfill them.
If you both care about each other, that's fine. But wait long enough to both get the education that will allow you to have the things you want in life without total hardship.
Real love, the kind that takes years to learn about, is something you only think you know about. At 16 and 18, you are reacting to hormonal stimuli and have no true conception of life in your future. I believe you when you say that you love him, but do you understand what love really is all about?
Go to college and get yourselves set to begin life first. Those feelings you have, if they are still there in 5 to 6 years, after finishing school, will let you know whether you are meant for each other.

Obviously you are going to get a lot of people saying that that is way too young. I do agree with that, but I don't think that means that you have to say No or even think about it in definite terms. The best advice I can give (having been in that place a few years ago with a highschool/college boyfriend) is to keep up the relationship - be "serious" and adult about it and let things happen. If you truly love him and see yourself with him forever, waiting for a while won't make a difference.
Good Luck.

If you feel really strongly about each other then you can make some kind of comittment, but take it slow, you have all your lives ahead of you. Maybe you could wear comittment rings, or if you really want to get engaged, have a long engagement.
Once you've finished school live together for a couple of years and see how that goes. From there you will know what's right.

all i can say that dont rush it
you still have a lot of time left
its not now or never
so dont worry so much
people change over time and all
so just wait
date some more
get to know him a lot more
and wait after high school because no jobs offer a job if your not a high school
and go ahead and get married after high school
but you gotta to think about tomorrows pleasures
not todays
alrighty?
good luck

um, that's a pretty hasty decision for your age i'd say... i mean think about it, there are couples who are 30plus and they think a million times before even taking such a big step as marriage! i suggest u, him, your parents and his parents have a nice dinner together, talk it out, and let THE PARENTS decide what's best for you.. afterall they are more experienced and have lived and seen life longer than you... if they suggest you wait and then marry, do that.. but do whatever you want with their consent cause they always wish the best for you... as for your bf remember: you truly love someone when you have seen the worst of them and still think they are the most beautiful person and can spend the rest of your life locked up in a closet with them! all the best! xD

Oh my, please read about other people's situations due in part because they got married too early. If you rush into this, you will both experience alot of hurt later. If you both take your time (years, not weeks), you'll both be better off, whether your relationship lasts or not. People change alot from teens to age 25-30. Let yourself grow.

Your still really young and have your whole life to get married. If you really love each other you should wait a couple more years.

Got one word for you, hun. WAAIIT! Enjoy your teenage years while they last cuz they'll be over before you know it. Finish high school, go to college if you want, and wait until you both have a job to support each other.

I believe in most states you CAN get married but you have to have Parental permission. I think you need to talk to your parents and have a serious discussion alone and then with your b/f.
