Or is there ever a right time? Aaron and i talk all the time about getting married and having a family, but recently we have been talking more and more about it until last night he sat me down and said that he doesnt want to wait as long as we first said we would, he knows i dont really want to either. We had a proper look at some engagement rings (although he wont give me a clue as to what he is planning or when for!!). We have been together 13months now, living together for a year, we are both 21 this year and although we are young it just feels right to us. What do you think?xxx |

Age doesn't come into it. If you know he is THE ONE, then he is THE ONE whether or not you are 21 or 91 !!!! Go for it. You are the only ones who know how you really feel. I hope it all works out for you xx |

If it feels right do it!! I met & married my hubby within 8 months, 22yrs ago. It's not the time scale it's how you both feel about each other. Heather x |

aww Diana im so pleased you said that! I remember how worried you were when i met him and moved in with him...im chuffed now lol! What scares us is all the worry about having enough money for a baby, cos to be honest we dont even wanna wait till we are married till we have children cos we just love them so much...but maybe it is the best thing to do xx |

Steph I knew after 3 week that he was the one for me. Got engaged 6 months later and faced a lot of opposition they said it wouldn't last. In a few weeks we will of been together 20 years married for 19. Lifes too short , only you know if it feels right, go with instinct. |

Go for it - you both feel the time is right so why wait? I only knew my hubby for 3 months before we got married and we have now been together for 20 years. |

Think I'd hang fire on the baby bit tho - spend some quality time with just each other first. And as for affording babies - well, who amongst us can? If we all waited to afford babies there wouldn't be many born!! Go on....plan your wedding, then spend the next year or so planning your family. OOOHHH its exciting! Lucy x who has no idea what colour her eyes are!!! . - GREEN AT THE MOMENT!!! LOL!! X |

Just follow your hearts, you will now when it is right for you. If you think the time is right then go for it - only you and Aaron can decide what is right for both of you. xxx |

NEVER! ditch him, travel round the world, do all the things you think you want to do, then settle down when all your ambitions have been achieved! |

Princess......my lovely daughter gave me two and half weeks notice of her forthcoming wedding!!!! she had only know him three months, now...13 years later and two children. they are still very happy...time/age doesn't have anything to do with it......forget the enagement, just get married lol.......Lilly....... ps son getting married in Sept, and both are having nervous break downs over the arrangments, bride to be, comes from a very, wealth american family, so every thing has to be big and prefect, I can not see the point,....... just get married it will mean exactly the same..... |

Go for it! Agree with Lucy about the baby bit though. Was discussing having babies with a friend last night who's been married for 2 years now (she's 28), she wants a baby but still can't get her head 'round having her life dominated by a baby (ie. less socialising, shopping etc). |
