i am assuming that you are the child and wish to marry?
okay - here is all the usual things summed up in one. "you don't know what you are getting into", "you are rushing into things", "if he loves you, he will wait until you are older", "things are not as easy as happily ever after", "marriage is hard enough when you are older, you are just to young".
okay - lecture over. i left my parents home at the age of 17. moved in with my high school sweetheart - who was attending college. lived with him until i turned 18 and got married. all of which, was against my parents wishes. they did everything including the threats of having the law involved.
the moral of the story? my parents knew a little of what they were talking about. we were way to young. this may indeed be the love of your life and you were "faited" to be together. but you know what? if it is, he will be there when you are older. start your life as an individual. get to know yourself, set yourself up in what you want to do for the rest of your life. where you are going, what you want and then include someone to share that life with. don't set your life around a person.
okay. i am done.
