I am a lot more mature than almost all of my friends and it was the right time for me to get married. That does not mean that all 21 year olds are ready for marriage. Everyone is different.
Have you ever read the book or heard of the book He's Just Not That Into You which is written by one of the male writers for the show Sex In The City?? It is very enlightening! I own it and have read it cover to cover many many times. If you want to read it but don't want to go out and buy it, let me know and I'll mail you my copy. I think this book will really help you build the confidence to just straight up ask your bf if he is into you enough to get married or not. I know you are scared. But wouldn't you rather know NOW if he doesn't want to marry you so you can get on with your life than wait until you are even more invested in this relationship to find out?? If he doesn't want to put in the kind of commitment that you are willing to, you don't need to waste your time on him. I know that is hard to accept and he may not even be this way at all, but that is something that you DEFINATELY need to find out before you take your feelings and your emotions any further.
Seriously, if you want to read this book, let me know and I'll send it to you. It is SO good. It is short and to the point. You could read it in a couple of hours. It is one of Oprah's all-time favorite books. I think EVERY girl, woman, preteen, teen should read it.  |
That guy that wrote that was on Oprah and it was such an interesting show. I will have to find that book also. I forgot all about it. We have plenty of bookstores around so it won't be hard to find.
Rebecca gave you excellent advice!!! You sure don't want to invest another 3-5 years and
THEN find out he's not interested in marriage or a family. I'd start the conversation soon....life is way to short!!
