well im 17, and my bf that i love so much asked me to marry him at our towns fireworks.
like any girl i agreed because im madly in love with him and it just feels right being with him.
He is 19 he is bouncing from house to house because he has no where to live. He can get a job, and ive tried to help him get one but it seems no one will hire him because he had a record from when he was younger that effects this.
My mother hates his every being and my y sister will do anything in her power to keep us apart.

He wants to get married when i turn 18, but i want to get married when i get my life straightened out.
Im still in high school getting my L.P.N. and i want to make sure i can live on my own.
im not sure what to do can someone help me please

I agree with you. You should wait until you have your life straightened out and you have a stable job. On the other hand, he also needs to get a job somehow. It doesnt matter what he does as long as he brings in some income. If you marry him now, you will just bounce house to house right along with him. That is no way for a married couple to live. You both should get your lives straightened out first!

Did you know that divorce rate is very high between young couples? You are very wise about wanting to wait until you get your life straightened out before getting hitched and this is, in my opinion, what you should do. If he truly cares about you, he won't mind waiting until you are emotionally, physically, and financially ready! It concerns me that your mom and sister have doubts about him; usually other people can see what you can not, so take this into account. Plus, in a few years you may not even want to marry him anymore! Your mind changes a lot between 17 and 20!
