writes: Hey everyone, I just made my account on this site last night and thus far, I've answered everything I could honestly. So, can I get a little help?I have a boyfriend of almost a year, and I love him more than anything. He's twenty eight years old and completely amazing. I, however, am seventeen. He and I did meet on the internet, but he is moving to me next month.My concern is that we plan to marry, and I'm very happy about that, but I'm still very young. Most of my friends are boys and I care about them very much. I love to flirt, and I can't help but flirt with them. It has never been a problem for my boyfriend, but sometimes I wonder if I'm really ready for a commited relationship.How do I figure it out? Or do I just let it run and see how it ends up?

Hey hun, I've got the same age difference between me and my bf and I met him over the internet!!
lol!
Well, To be honest lovely, considering it's only been a year, and considering you are only 17, I would suggest, as everyone else on here has said, that you wait a couple more years. You don't have to be married to enjoy eachother's company do you?? I think that you should spend more time together, and go on dates and stuff, you've got your whole life to get married, but you haven't got your whole life of being young and having fun have you?
As for the flirting, I have loads of male mates too, I'd suggest that when you feel liable to flirt, tell yourself "I'm with an amazing guy, there's no need for this." I mean, meeting up with your male mates once in a while, - that's fine, but I'm talking about constant texting, meeting up and flirting and I think that you should definatly stay clear of anything like that - you don't want these other boys to get the wrong idea do you?
Mail me if you want to talk lovely!! Hope I helped :)
xx

If your having doubts I think you should listen to them. You are still young and there's so much to experience yet!
Most relationships when people are your age don't last, you will chnage alot in the next 5 years, and maybe him moving closer to you would be a mistake?
I would talk to your boyfriend, tell him that your not sure your ready and explain how you feel, but make sure that he knows your concerns he might well have the same concerns, talk to him and dicuss things as you want to be as sure as you can be that your both making the right choice.
Good Luck.

I have a daughter the same age as you, and if she ever got into your situation I would advise her not to jump into anything as serious as marriage. You are far too young, to handle such an emotional lifelong commitment,at your age girls often like to have this "Romantic fairytale 2gether 4ever scenario" But please leave it till say five years time or so, because you cannot be sure whether you are gonna be with this guy, Do you? Have a long engagement and don't rush into things you two guys may regret later, it would only lead to heartache. Are you prepared for having your heatbroken at such a young age? If the answer is NO take my advice and let me know what you have both decided OK?
