Well i dont see whats wrong as long as your happy and you truly do think your in love then it might well be that.

Its the relationship and him in the end not what age you are who can honestly see what the future will do. You might be with hi forever

Not My Name agony auntI think a lot of people probably are in lust not love at young ages, .. but that said, I was with my ex at 18 (hardly any older than you) and spent as many more years with him.

We are not together as a couple anymore, ... I have a new man, ... but my ex is asleep in my bed right now and has stayed almost everynight for the last week. I would not allow this if I did not still love him as a friend, ... it is just a diff love now from the type that makes couples work out.

So hey why not I suppose, ... not the norm, ... would oft not be considered 'real', ..but it was for me at barely any older.

Don't let losing the romance drive you in to drinking tho. Seek help if you think it is becoming a serious problem.

BTW - Am not up to anything shifty lol - my boyfriend of the last 8+ months knows the ex stays a lot, that I sleep on the futon when he does, that we see each other and talk on the phone everyday without fail, that I occassionally sleep at his house, ... but also that neither of us are interested in each other 'that way', ... so he is cool with that coz the ex is the father of my child and thinks it is great for my son that we still do things and hang out together.

Any other ex makes horns pop out his head without even knowing them lol, ... but not the father of my child.

Just incase I was sounding shifty lol
