Now that being said it has been extremely hard at times because we both missed out on our youth. I cannot stress enough how much you should wait. Although we love each other very much and have two great kids we are the exception to the rule now days. Like every relationship honesty and comunication are key. Be honest even when it hurts. Good luck.

 I thinks its varies for everyone, my relationships have not really worked out. But my parents have been together since they were in their teens, the same with my grandparents too, and are still together to this day. Also my brother and his wife met at school and the have been married for the last 10 years.

 I think if two people are compatable it can happen. My parents were together for 12 yrs and they were high school lovers. My grandparents are still married and they met at school.

But that's just the background I come from, a little more cosmopolitan, people date a lot more, and don't rush to get married. But I am sure that if you ask someone from a more conservative background, I wouldn't doubt that you would hear alot of success stories about marrying your high school sweetheart. But in my opinion, your 20's and college years are to explore and grow as an individual. I think its a good time to refine yourself as a individual. Travel, have many experiences, meet a lot of people and friends, learn a lot, get your career started. That way, in the future, when you have met someone you really like, you can be a really complete individual with lots of confidence, independence and lots to offer the relationship. Often times when you try to do all that with a boyfriend, they can really hold you back and you end up only being half the person that you aspired to be.
