Just read this please?

So, I have a boyfriend, I'm 16, he's 25, and respects that I'm only 16, and waiting to marry me when I turn 19, because that's when I graduate HS. I love him so much and I want to spend the rest of my life with him, but I admit that I am afraid of marriage, I feel like I won't be a good wife! He also wants to have kids, I think 2, but I am scared to death of becoming a parent because it's too much responsibility, I don't even feel responsible now as it is, and everyday I wreck my brain over this! I want to have kids with him when we marry because they will be cute Chinese American kids, and I will love them to death because of it, but I just don't feel suited to be a parent! Any opinions or advice please?

    People are going to judge because of the age difference, I say whatever because when I was your age I dated someone who was 22-23 and I did just fine.

    But I will say that he was more mature than I was... And I didn't know what love actually was at the time. I thought my life would end if we couldn't be together but guess what, it's only been a couple of years and we are NOT together now and I am so much happier.

    You are young so it's probably a faze. You may or may not be with him in three years. And I don't think you should allow him to get you pregnant or marry him until you are certain he's the one to spend the rest of your life with.

    You haven't lived yet... When you get 19, you will want to go out and explore life. You won't want to be stuck in the house cooking and cleaning for a man and two children.

    Be smart and take your time!!!

    P.S make sure he doesn't have a hidden agenda or just wants you because nobody else wants him.

    You must live in a state where age of consent is 16 huh. Otherwise he should be going to jail. But then again, you are only 16 so how do you even know what love really is??? I would say if your parents are ok with this then you could work something out. But like I said, you are only 16 so give it some more time. You might realize you don't love him as much as you think, or he may not be the person you expected him to turn out to be. Good Luck.
