Daniel is right... at 17, you don't even know who you are! No one does. I think you should wait until you have stability in your life.

I personally think you are a bit too young cause you need to grow up and experience different loves. I know that when you are in love, it's different and you feel you will NEVER love anyone else except this one man, but things change. I mean, I might be wrong cause I don't know the situation. But think it over more. You are a special girl and deserve to experience different things before you go right to it. :)

Yes, you are too young to marry. It might not seem that way to you, but you haven't finished growing emotionally. This is not the moment to marry.Also, I suppose you want to study and find a way to do for a stable living before you take this step.

You are too young.Get a life of your own.Go to school or learn a trade and b established.You don't want to go in nd become handicapped.Ask if u ll b willing to spend the rest of ur life with this guy.Listen to ur parents and introduce him to your mentor and see what they think

If you don`t know what to do then the answer is not to get married.Explain your feelings to your boy friend and if he loves you he will understand.
