Do you think my friend is rushing to get married?

Well i was thinking perhaps losing her Mom made her realise that, but yeah i'm really happy for her she really deserves it and i really hope they work out.

Thats a pretty long engagement of about 2 years, which to me sounds extremely sensible!!! At 22, she isn't even that young. I'm getting married in July 2007 and I will be just about 20 at that point. I've been with my boyfriend for 2 years and it's just so obvious that he is the one for me. I've had a fair few boyfriends and he is just unbelievabley, incredibly different. I know its meant to be.
As long as she's happy and being sensible about it, just let her make up her own mind.

my friend is 17 and is engaged to a guy. (this is the second person she has been engaged to.) she split in september from her first fiancee, who she had been dating for three years. she then got a new guy, moved in with him and he proposed in december and she said yes.

she has suffered from depression (has tried to take her life before) and she always hated being at home. i have heard that this current guy is controlling her - wont let her meet up with friends/speak to many people/gets really jealous/wont let her use her mobile phone. i am scared that she has rushed into this and has accepted a life she doesn't want (and doesn't really even like) only because she thinks it's better than being at home.

i would say that's more like rushing getting married and i am scared for her, but don't know where her boyfriend has moved her to, so i cant help her and she wouldn't appreciate if i told her mum what i know because she hates her mum and her mum hates her.

so, basically, dont worry about your friend, she knows what she is doing and seems to be being quite sensible.

by 20, my mum had me and was married. i dont think age matters. my parents are still together.

i think there are more extreme and scary situations to worry over, if your friend is happy then you be happy, too.

Hi last night i spoke to an old friend and to my shock she told me she was getting married in September 2007 by then she'll be 22.
She met a guy at work last year and got with him straight away she told me it was love at first site this was last April and in Ocotber they got engaged, I am very pleased for her just worried shes rushing too much as such a young age, then again she told me how well they get on so when your happy like that there's the old saying why wait.
Maybe though losing her Mother 2 years ago may have had a bearing on it as well, what you all reckon is she doing the right thing or is she going too quickly?

How do you know what they feel for each other? You're not in the relationship so you can't possibly know. When her mum died it was probably a very dark time in her life and now she feels as though she has found some happiness, so why question it? Se[tember 2007 is 1 1/2 years away, so if they aren't meant to be together it will show in the time before the wedding.
