Being together from the age of 6 doesn’t mean much. I say this because you are way to young at that age to even know what a relationship is let along love. You are both still very young to be getting marred. When your with somebody and you love them that doesn’t mean you have to get married. You can be together and still love each other with out the getting married.
I say stay together and just be happy being boyfriend and girlfriend. If you love each other dearly them marriage will come when your older. Don’t rush things.

Take your time, mariage is supposed to be a comitment for the preservation of love and you have love so enjoy it. Label it marriage when there will be less objection, and you'll be happier longer. Thats just a sugetstion naturaly, you have to decide for yourself.

I'm worried that you may be jumping the gun. I dont know you or your partner but I do know that I felt the same when I was your age and by god, Im glad I waited!
Can I tell you that marriage is a commitment that can be made at ANY time and there should be no rush to tie the knot. Being married does not make the bond you have between you any stronger, nor does it ensure that you are together forever. It is really the icing on the cake when you are settled and at the right time in your life to do the deed.
You will both change as people, and your whole outlook on life will probably change over the next 5 years which isnt a long time at all. Even 20 years old is a young age to get married, but hey, you will have been together for 15 years by then so if you feel the same then, why not go for it.
I know that this might not be what you want to hear but it could be great advice and I hope you can consider it. If you are trully made for each other, then in 5 years your love will be as strong as ever!
Best of luck to you both!

You are both far too young to be married I'm afraid. What's the big rush????? I have no idea the legal age for marriage in USA but in the UK you can be married at 16 WITH the consent of a parent or guardian. Don't rush into marriage, it brings with it it's own problems ie responsibility and stress, enjoy your youth!
