My friend is thinking aboutmoving in with her boyfriend and his family. Her boyfriend is moving to Arizona and she lives in Michigan. This is going to be our senior year, and she is thinking about moving to Arizona right before it to live with him and his family!!! She is going to be 18 so her parents don't have too much say && they don't really seem to mind. Shes my best friend and i really don't want her to move away BEFORE senior year!! Is it just me or is that a little rediculous? What shoudl i say to her? Its actually pretty definate up to this point im just not sure what advice to give her

Yes its crazy for her to move right before her senior year.
The smart thing would be to wait at least until she graduates but she is almost 18 its her life and she has to deal with the consequences of her choices. I know you are her friend and don't want her to go, just try to sit down and talk to her about waiting because if they both really love each other he will wait a year for her and possibly they can visit one another during the year. I know you will miss her but if she does go ahead and move just wish her the best as you would want her to wish you and be there if things happen to not work out and she returns.

Your friend is totally blind. Advise her that the world does not revolve on her fingertips and instead of her thinking about marriage, she should take a brake and look around and not only ask herself what she see around her, but why are people living the way they are living? I guarantee you she doesn't see beyond her nose what lay ahead and when things starts getting tough she will be the one damped out there in the desert, left alone to struggle. Tell her that love is always blind. She is still young to understand the consequences associated with marriage. Understand that marriage means commitment and since she is young, her man is not mature enough to think beyond whenever difficulties arises. She should concentrate on her education and afte success she can join him in Arizona when she know she is full prepared if things don't go as planned. If she insist, leave her alone, the world would teach her a bitter lesson

I don't think she should move. Talk to her about how far Arizona is for her family and friends. Talk to her about how she hasn't even graduated high school. She is to young to move that far just yet. She needs to go to college. Ask her what she'll do if her and her boyfriend break up. She won't even have a high school diploma. If she and her boyfriend break up she could be working at various fast food restraunts to keep herself alive. If they break up she could become homless. What if she gets pregnant and they break up and she has to have full custody of the baby? Without a high school diploma?????????!!!??!!!!!!!!!!! They would barely have enough fod on the table, much less technology she'd want like a cell-phone and computer. Or you could just let her go and realize her mistake. Either way works.

None. Sometimes people just have to learn things the hard way. Youre probably right but since love is blind in your friends case, she will never listen to you anyway, no matter how right you are or try to explain it. She willprobably break up with you as friends before she stays put. Like you said shes of age so you really cant stop her so let her learn the hard way and just be there for when this adventure falls apart.Its probably all you can really do.

First off...............are you being selfish in your feelings?
Do you not want her to move because her boyfriend is a jerk and his family is too? Is he abusive? Is it a situation she should not be in? Is her family life at home dangerous, or alcoholic parents?
Or is it because you just wanna pal around your senior year? You have high morals and don't want her to live in sin?
Figure out why she is moving. IF it is for love-nothing you can say will change her mind. IF it is to get away from a bad homelife.........encourage her to move!

Definite means no change so you might as well prepare to see your friend move. As bad as you don't want her to go she needs you to stick by her, she will only have her boyfriend and his side of the family. What ever happens make sure she knows you will be there for her. Find out where she will be and make plans to visit with her.

Well, if her family and his, are open to that idea, and if he's lost interest in you, let him go. Allow yourself to find another guy. But why Arizona? If they must choose Arizona, which would mean a lot of driving for them, and or any movers,
and maybe a lot of flying time for them, if they don't drive the distance, I suggest Scottsdale.

Compulsive behavior is not a good idea. She is only in her teens and have the rest of her life ahead. Patience is part of maturing, and the right thing to do is to let go and let God. Learning to handle change is what comes to mind because having a successful life is about accepting it.

hmmmmmmmmmm
if she is gonna move , make sure she really loves that boy first
for older people, 30 or more lets say, they should always go move there 2 weeks first as a trial , to see how its gonna be
or at least, go meet the prospective neighbors, make sure it will be ok to live there, both ways

I don't think you can do anything to make her stay because once anyone is in love, it's pretty much impossible to change her mind. Yes, i do think its kinda crazy they she is going to move with him in his family. She only 18, i think its way to soon.
