Heres my current relationship situation: im known my current gf for 4 or 5 months and we've been dating for 1.5 months. I was the first person she had sex with and we have been moving relatively quickly compared to most highschool relationships. Im 17 and shes 18. She sent me an email today telling me that if i asked, she would marry me after graduation. and quote,
"there is no doubt in mind, none at all, that you are the person i want to spend every moment of my life with. i cannot imagine myself with any other person but you." I've always been the type that wants to settle down quickly, thats why i got into the game. This is exactly what i want and im on cloud 9 right now. But brg me back to reality, what are the chances this will work and is not mere infatuation?
you're right, it sounds like infatuatoin.
to bring you back to reality: power can shift quickly in a relationship. if she said that about you after just a month,a year from now, some other guy may get to know her for 2 months! perhaps she might fall for him instead. if you don't maintain this relationship properly, you may be sending her an email like that to her to try and keep her with you.
that was just to bring you back to reality.
here's what i really think:
some people are gonna say get out cause she's getting too clingy, but i disagree. you are in a great position here. maintain the relationship, and keep things going in the direction that YOU want them to go. the ball is in YOUR side of the court. i'm not sure who said this, i think it might have been David X in his book "be relentless", but he basically said that the person who loves the least in a relationship, is the one who controls the relationship.
