My girlfriend and I have been together for a little over 2 1/2 years. I'm 23 and she's 20. Tonight we came with in inches of breaking up. The reason for this is because she has a over whelming fear that should we stay together and get married that one day down the line either she or I would resent the other because we obviously didn't date a lot of other people and she thinks that would be "missing out" on being young. I told her if taking a break and dating or even breaking up and dating others is what she needs to do to know that I'm the guy for her, to do it. She couldn't. After about two hours of talking she said she loves me way to much, could never be with anyone else and it's just her co-workers getting to her (Two have been divorced and the other is in a 5 year relationship where both partners constantly cheat). Well now I'm very worried that this will happen, I never thought of it before and don't think I'd be the one resenting but I feel like there's a 40%ish chance she would. What should I do???? Tell her we need a break, to break up or to stay together???

That's all hear say......not everyone cheats or resents their choice and most are quite happy with the choice they have made. There is never "certainty" about what's going to happen in the future.....if it feels right, there's nothing wrong with sticking with your plans for marriage. I do recommend couples counseling before you both say "I do".
