How old is to old

[BabyBlue06]

undefinedundefinedundefined Ok well my boyfriend is 22 and I am 16. I met him on the internet on feb 21 of 04 ever since we been chilling he comes every weekend. He thinks he knows it all and when it comes to house hold duties he thinks he is better than anyone and knows how to do it. He says he wants to marry me and have kids with me when i am like 25... He says we are going to have a 4 million dollar wedding in Italy. I love him to death but my grandmother says that it is never is going to last...and he is to old for me...what do u think.

Well, I am no authority on relationships. God knows Ive gotten myself into a few nasty ones, but I have also been where you are. When I was 15 I met Greg. He was 18 and just getting ready to leave for the army. He was intellegent and made me feel great about myself. Always telling me how beautiful and sweet I was. It felt nice to be cared for. Well, before he left he said that he loved me and wanted to marry me, and although I was too young he thought we could wear "promisary" rings for a few years.
Well, for the first year that he served things were great. We wrote and talked all the time. He told me about the job he was going to get after serving and how it would provide financial stability. He told me about having kids and the home we always wanted. Things were great. He left for Kuwait for 6 months, and because his platoon was in hiding, he couldnt write or phone except for a minute every week or two. I grew up a great deal. I moved to a different town and school and met new people. So did he. When he came back the reunion was built up to be so great, and it wasnt. I felt like we just didnt have the same interests or goals. I felt like he was on a totally different page mentally. He wanted things that I didnt, and vice versa. We were too young, well, I was too young to know what I wanted. When you commit at a young age, you are still changing SO much. You change more and more every day, and really it takes until you are in your thirties before you gain stability in your wants and needs. Right now 7 years age difference may not seem big, but someday it will. He will be 30 and want the house and the kids and you'll be 23 and still want to travel and explore and be young. I cant tell you what to do, or not to do. All I can offer is my limited wisdom. Hope it helps.

undefinedHi there baby blue, dont know ur name so i got to call u with ur nick. what "someonesgirl" said is true and ppl do change with time, but on the other hand some dont. i on the other hand have a lovely reationship with my boyfriend who was also once my high school sweet heart. i was 16 when it all started and now we've been together for 6 & a half years. what im trying to say here, is yes u are mature to have a proper relationship alothough with ur man he seems to have the mentality of "im perfect, i know everything" and under estimates u. dont allow that to happen, in a relationship, u put him ahead of u and he puts u ahead of him. this way, both of u are happy and well taken care of. dont be with a guy whos selfish. ur young, im sure if u look harder in school u'll find the right guy there. mine was the naughty one, i didnt think we'd be bf and gf. since he was my in my class since 4th grade and my best friend then boyfriend in 10th grade.
good luck babes... :p
