Basically, I'm only 20 and i'm the female in the relationship (not that it should matter, but still). My boyfriend is 23 and we are long-distance and so in love. The relationship has been so ridiculously hard, because of the distance, but otherwise he's amazing and i'm completely happy with him.
I so desperately want to take our relationship to the next level but he can't afford to move to my city yet, although when he can afford it he wants to. So I thought, how about I ask him to marry me? Obviously we can't afford to get married or even buy the rings at this point, but that isn't what matters to me. It is not about money.
It may sound totally crazy because I am so young, but I want to live for the moment. At this moment, right now, I want to marry him. He is the one, I can just feel it.
My mum would kill me if I got engaged at this age. She thinks i'm too young to even be in a serious relationship. When she was 20 she was just dating, playing the field. But that has never appealed to me.
I want to seize every day and grasp every opportunity- because life is so short and you never know when it might be over for you. Should I do this? My friends will also think i'm crazy, they'll all sit talking about me behind my back no doubt. But should I care? Life iis too short to live by everyone else's ideals
