Do i have a right to be upset?

No need to be upset about this- if anything, be happy for your friend.

Remember, you're not living life to be like everyone else. You are your own unique individual.

If your friend and her beu decided after 7 months that they want to get married- then great, congrats to them.

It's different for each person, trust me.

You are smart and taking your time, no big rush to get married. Really get to know the guy that you are with, especially because they can be much different when you are living with them. There will be things that you can't stand about him or the way he does certain things....

People rush to get married these days just to have the ring and party but there's a commitment to that and a lot of people have trouble with it which result in infidelity.

You're doing well thus far, just be happy for your friend and help her in any way you can. Your day will come soon when you lease expect it.

Best of luck!

You have a right to your feelings but the thing is, I'm not sure why you are "upset" with her. She didn't do anything to you and she isn't the one waffling on getting married.

The issue that you sound upset with is your own relationship. Getting married isn't a competition, a race for the finish line to see which friend gets there first. It is a HUGE deal.

Sit your boyfriend down and ask him where he sees your relationship going. If he tells you he doesn't want to get married, then you need to decide whether you want to stay with him or if you are ok living w/o the piece of paper. It's clear that you are jealous of your friend's potential engagement. But don't let that rule your life. Not everyone has the same thing going on all the time in life.

You guys did start at an early age, so you guys have advantage of spending more time together and getting to know each other well. You are just feeling, why not me? why her? Look, when the time is right for you guys it will happen. You are not mad, You are upset. That you invested more time in this relationship, then your friend. Don't get engaged because someone else is doing. Do it if you guys are ready. Do it for yourself and each other. Don't do it cause its in right now or because my friend got engaged.

You have a point after 3 1/2 years that you want to know the direction the relationship is going. Have you had the candid relationship discussion with him and asked him where you see the two of you headed? Be careful with that because you may well find out the reason he doesn't want to marry you and you certainly don't want to force him into something he doesn't want to do.

Her boyfriend doesn't "know" he wants to marry her - he thinks he wants to marry her. He doesn't even truly know her yet.

Be glad that your boyfriend isn't impetuous and foolish, acing on infatuation. Just imagine all the rash decisions your friend will have to live with in the future if she marries this man. He may come home one day with a new car, or having quit his job and wanting to be a cowboy.

Marriage is a partnership for life. At your ages you don't have a firm idea of where you want to go in life, so how can you agree to go along with anyone else?

Don't be jealous of your friends' bad decisions.

The real problem is not that he asked your girlfriend to get married after dating 7 months, it is how you doubt if your boyfriend plans on a commitment with you. Statistics have it that the first couple of years of courtship are the most intense, especially for a guy. During this time it is when romance and lust is in full bloom, and it is during the time that a gal has the best chances of winning her guy over, even thoug it is unadvisable to do so because one cannot base a decision to marry on this phase alone. During courship the relationship moves of la la land phase to a more comfortable, more familar phase and it is during this phase that the guy relaxes a bit, not having to try so hard to win his love over as he feels he already did all he could to win her heart. This leaves a woman feeling taken for granted. And she begins to miss the romance and then begins to question if he still loves her. The thing here is that most guys after having his gal without the commitment of marriage do not feel a need to get married. Why? Because they already have all the benefits of marriage without having to commit and risk themselves fiancially if it were not to work out. If it is marriage you want then I suggest to talk to your guy about this. Does he see a future with you that includes marriage? Three years is long enough to know if you are the one. If he does not see a future with you that includes marriage then you have decisions to make. See, your girlfriend expected more for herself than just to be a live in, and her guy knows this and knew that the only way to hold her is to do the decent thing and marry her. You sent a message to your guy that it was ok to live together without the benefit of marriage and so he thinks you are ok with this. It is up to you to make things clear to him and then act on it. Good luck to you!

That's kind of ridiculous to compare your own life to your friend's. 7 months is a VERY short time and you're all very young. What's the rush? Live your life and enjoy not being married for a bit.

Canes might have the experiance edge, however the Bruins have the offensive edge, the shielding edge, the specai lteams edge and the Goalie edge. Bruins in 4 perchance 5 if the Canes get fortunate. ANd the Canes did not in simple terms beat the suited goalie interior the NHL, considering is Tim Thomas, atleast this 365 days, suited GAA and suited shop %.

Maybe she's better looking , better in the sack or a better cook than you ?
