do high school sweethearts end up well?

Question

my guy and I were high school sweethearts and im wondering if they seem to work out usually

Answer 1

50 % do and 50 % don't what can i say but give it your best shot.

Answer 2

It honeslty depends on the people. I married my high school sweetheart and we were divorced within 10 months because he wasn't ready to grow up. That, and because he cheated. If I could go back and change marrying him, I would. I loved him with my whole heart and wanted to spend the rest of my life with him but that is such a young age. If both of you try and really want the relationship to work, it will. You both have to give 100%. It's hard but it can happen. My parents were sweethearts and they've been happily married for 30 years now.

Answer 3

Is this guy the only guy you ever had a relationship with. You might want to date other guys. We always believe our first love will be our one and only everlasting love. With maturity people change and grow. Years later you realize it was just a silly school girl crush.

On the flip side I do have a friend who married the guy she met at sixteen. He was the only guy she ever dated and they have been happily married for 20 years.

Also, i would think if you are wondering if it is going to work out then that might tell you something right there. There should be no doubts in your mind if your going to take the next step and move forward into a relationship. So I think you have your the answer.

Answer 4

I know of very few h/s sweethearts that ever worked out afterwards, I mean look, you now graduated and hell there's a whole big world of new people and things to experience and you're so young, why would you want to tie yourself down so early in life. Wait awhile see the world so to speak, see whats out there, before you decide to settle down or else you'll always wonder what mighta, coulda, been around the next corner of life.

Answer 5

Many in here would have you believe because they are still with their high school sweet heart that it does , but the divorce rate is higher for high school and college love marriages then normal every day joe blow's who meet outside of institutions.

From my own personal experience I married my high school sweet heart and it hasnt worked out , but you wont know unless you give it a go , so give it a go and see if your 1 of the lucky few who do make it.

Answer 6

My mom and dad were high school sweethearts and they've been married for 42 years.

Marriage is never easy, so it totally depends on the people.

Good Luck!

Answer 7

If you and your bf can not able to complete your studies (college degree), then probably your relatinship will not successful and it will not prosper any good but will be ended into separation.
It is very slim percentage to prosper a teener sweethearts due to difficulty of their family sitaution caused by early married with lack of preparation to sustain the family needs.

Answer 8

Oh come on, you're joking right? High school sweethearts usually NEVER end up together. If you are splitting up to different colleges, that's the end right there. If you're both staying in town, it's usually ok...

But really, it's best to move on after High school into the new part of your life. You get to reinvent yourself.

Of course, completely up to you. It's your life, sink or swim. Do what you want and see what happens.

Answer 9

yes...absolutely. Ive been with my hs sweetheart for 7 years. we have been married for 2 years. it just depends on the couple and if your willing to sacrifice like any other marriage. we just lucky we found each other at an early age.

Answer 10

We (my wife and I) were high school sweethearts and we've now been married 23 years, but I truely believe you have to include God (Jesus) in your marriage or it will never work. Good luck and best wishes.

Answer 11
