Do you think my boyfriend and I will eventually get married?

We started dating when I was 15 years old, and he was 17. We've been together since high school, and some college thus far. It's almost been 3 years. Do you think that this relationship is something special or typical?





What are some positives or negatives about our relationship?Do you think my boyfriend and I will eventually get married?
well thats not really enough to say positive or negatives about. i guess its possible, it depends what u both want. girls often want commitment a lot earlier the guys, but it really depends on the person. only time will tell hun.Do you think my boyfriend and I will eventually get married?
Well, on the positive side, your relationship has lasted this long. On the negative side, if you haven't already or plan to, living with him outside of marriage is not conducive to tying the knot. There is no incentive for him to legalize your relationship because without the legality of it, he is less likely to be financially responsible or take a financial loss should a divorce occur.


That being said, I do not know either of you nor your personalities or how each of you views the relationship. Since it has lasted quite a while, the prospects look good, although you both have been mutually exclusive (wow, that's a 1970's term, LOL!) since high school and that does not allow you both to experience other relationships and learn from them. Not that I encourage many relationships, but I would hate to see one of you discover that you would be happier with someone else after being together successfully for so long.


If both of you considered this relationship right for you, the possibility of marriage is good. Read the local obituaries in your paper. Many many of the older citizens (60's-90's) married early and stayed happily married until one of them was deceased. That is something that sadly,is beyond rare these days.


I would make sure you and your boyfriend are open about your goals for this relationship and you'll have an even better chance at marriage.
okay hang on.... you starting dating at 15, it's been almost 3 years so you must only been just 18 now. wow. now WHY are you thinking about marriage??!!





There's no reason why you won't end up married, but at 18 and 20 there is so much life experience ahead of you who knows what your future will hold. I know couples who have been together since high school and got married after 10 years, couples who got married at 22 and are still together, couples who got married later in life after only a few months, it's all unique to the circumstance. I also know couples who broke up after 6-10 yrs together starting in high school and couples I was certain would get married not survive.





Basically, noone online can tell you whether you will eventually get married and probably none of your friends will be accurate on that one either. Just live your life as it unfolds at this time enjoy everything while you're young because there's no going backwards. If it's meant to be, it'll happen but at 18, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
Honestly I can't answer most of this, not knowing your relationship. But honestly I know people who have dated for seven or eight years who break up. And I know people who dated for one year before getting married and have been happily married ever since.





Do you think it's special? And you should be able to point out the negative and positive aspects of your relationship yourself. If you wonder, ask your friends. They not only know you really well, but they know the ups and downs of your relationship with your boyfriend.
It could happen.


People answering your question can't tell you if you have something special, nor can we tell you the negatives or positives of YOUR relationship.


We can give you typical scenarios. Some people will say if you marry your high school sweetheart it won't last. But with some people it does.


If your relationship is strong and you guys go through college and know you want to get married that's great. 3 years is a long time and you're lucky to have that.


I've known my boyfriend since I was 15 and he was 16, but we didn't date until I was 22-23 and we have been together for 3 years now. We plan on getting married someday but he is finishing up college.


It all depends on your devotion to each other. :)
Life has far too many TWISTS and TURNS to know for certain what will happen in the future.





Statistics, probably, likelihood.....all those things don't stack up for a minute against the suddenness of change.





Just LIVE.





If you honestly feel like you wouldn't mind spending the rest of your life with this guy...dont ask if it will happen. Instead focus on the NOW.





NOW...what can you do to make this relationship successful?





NOW...what is it that you find most irresistible and adorable about him?





NOW...what can you say to one another or do for one another as though it were the last day you were going to see each other?





If you focus on making everyday a NOW moment, you soon be so lost in the routine that before you know it, he'll be standing at the end of the aisle, smiling and waiting for you to walk down towards him a long white dress.





Think about this: You may not know if it's going to rain..., but take your umbrella anyway.
I always think bout this with my boyfriend ...but with previous relatinships that lasted 2 years, i thought that too, except they ended up bad because we got sick of each other. so think if you can picture yourself with him for the rest of your life without ever being with another guy. You think your bf will be able to be with you for the rest of his life..remember he was 17 when he started to date you and maybe he will might one day think that he wants other girls cuz hes still young n wants a fun life...on the other hand this could be TRUE LOVE and he might not think that


talk to him bout this..not marriage but if he ever gets the feeling that he wants to be like other guys and have fun with girls before settling down. this could end up as a break up butt hink of it as the better...let him have his fun and leave the relationship on a good note..then when you guys are old enugh, u can see each other and FEEL like its meant to be and love forever....GOOD LUCK
i honestly couldn't tell you. I've seen people going out for three years and they broke up, but then again that's from middle school to high school so I'm sure you two are more mature and know what you want. Only you can tell if its special and if its love. Only time will tell if you will get married, and if it is special, I really hope the best for you two!
It's kinda impossible for us to tell you positives and negatives about YOUR relationship. You're asking is it typical for people to date for 3 years? Hm yes, it is. A long term relationship doesn't always mean it will result in marriage. If you need to ask someone else if your relationship is special, then it probably isn't.
That's not really a lot of information to determine something like that.





It's pretty typical. I knew a TON of couples that were together for years and half way thru college they broke up... or even right after college. Anything can happen.
I was 15 and he was 18 when we started dating. I left for college, we broke up in the 2nd semester of my freshman yr. We dated 2yrs 7mos. I broke up with him b/c we grew apart. It just depend on your compatibility and where you wanna go in life.
Some things are just meant to be. if god or who ever wanted you two to get married then it will be so. Follow your hearts desire and don't let anyone tell you different I hope that it work's out for the best for you two good lock and best wish to the both of you.
I honestly would focus on being happy in the present. Not trying to decide whats going to happen in the future. No matter how great something may be things can happen. And sometimes great things pop out of the worst situations. Live by the day, be happy with him. And give it time.
If you think you cant live without him then yes...if you are curious about other guys then prob not...things can change though..for example my friend was in a 6 year relo and all a sudden he cheated and didnt want to be with her anymore.
bad: u'll lose interest in each other and always think about what it may be like with others. also, as u grow up, u'll change and drift apart


good: if u do make it u'll be a real fairy tale love story.
It all depends on how well you get along, and how good those 3 years have been.


';What are some positives or negatives about our relationship?';


Other people can't answer that. That's something you should know.
How is anyone suppose to give an answer based on a three line description? Just ask your closest friends who's known you the longest, geez.
Lady we don't know you or your boyfriend, so you can't possibly expect us to answer this.
I think you guys can stay together only if you two are willing to! and plus you never know he might be having some second thoughts since college,and they have all sorts of college girls!
Ummm....... I know nothing about you or your relationship.
NOOO!


ABSOLUTELY NOT !!!


U must merry ME !!!!





hahahahaha!
3 years is a good amount of time
If you have to ask, probably not.
we can't really give you pros and cons because we don't even know you guys or how you both act
no one can really give u a right answer.
