I was 18 when I met my wife. We didn't get married until I was 26, but we were functionally married the whole time since we lived together and basically shared everything. I wouldn't recommend getting married that young as a rule, but YMMV.

That's what we were doing basically. We live together and just shared everything...well, until the past couple months. 😛
Like I said; YMMV. 😉

Honestly, at least you nipped this in the bud relatively early. I know it sucks now, but imagine having this happen 8 years down the road when you're married with children. Complete train wreck.

you highschoo kids are funny...

Dude, if you have a problem; don't post it here. I wasn't looking for your sh!t advice. I knew what I wanted and she did at the time. Some people change.


oh its not an advice, more of an observation. Just by your geneneral attitude I can tell you were nowhere near mature enough to do something like that. But that's alright though, once you get little older youll look back and realize the the same thing i just said. Engagements at that age have life expectancy of a 6pack on friday night.

In the meanwhile enjoy your freedom and freshmen college chicks
 
1. Why the hell are you engaged to a woman at 18? Establish a career before you even consider marriage. If you marry too early, you WILL regret it. You, or your wife, will end up cheating on the other because between 18-25 you should be out having fun. Try out different women and find the right one, not the first one who'll put out.

2. Never trust a woman with a guy friend. Women are stupid when it comes to platanic relationships. Frankly, platanic relationships rarely work. Most men don't want JUST a woman's friendship. What does he have to gain by being her friend? And how often do platanic relationships end up in flings or more? You probably won't realize it now but one day, you'll realize this is the best thing that has happened to you. It's better than marrying her then divorcing her after she cheats on you. Hell, you'll even pay alimony and possibly child support if you wait too long before getting that divorce.

sorry to hear that man, but your still young


get your ring back

Way too many people get hooked up WAY to young. It rarely works out these days.

GET YOUR PARTYING AND SCREWING AROUND OUT OF YOUR SYSTEM BEFORE YOU TRY AND SETTLE DOWN!

Hell, I'm 50 and STILL don't feel ready to get married!

Oh, and I'm listening to the song Eamon - Fvck It (I don't want you back). Very funny song.


Later guys,

Dan

That is a great song after a break up! I ended a 10 month relationship not long ago (no cheating) and within days had downloaded that song and assigned it to my ex as her ringer. So everytime she calls a nudey picture of her pops up and that Eamon song plays. LOL!

I'm not mature enough? LOL, you have no idea who I am.

waaaaaaaaay to young to have been engaged. i think you put that ring on her finger thinking it would let you keep her. she was straying before the ring.
that's so true. Too early to get tied down. At 18, people haven't even fully experienced college yet and we all know how life-changing that can be. You have a LONG while to hook up with someone more faithful and looking for the same things you are. Other than being heartbroken for a little while... I wouldn't worry about it. 2.5 years of high school life isn't much of a waste.

And man I know this is a public forum but why do some people have to be d!cks? This guy loved his gf and she fvcked it up. Show some compassion! But I guess this place has little of that from some people...

Thank you Koing. What do you expect? Look at SampSon, prime example of one of the biggest douchebags on these boards. He likes to go around and criticize else. Whatever. :roll:
Yup, I second that SampSon is a douchebag. Posters like that don't last very long around here before da BAN!
Sorry to hear about your breakup man... I had almost the same scenario back in college...
 
Sorry dude.

Better luck with the next woman.

Realistically, with men and women as young and inexperienced as the two of you, chances of success are a lot lower. Most people need time to travel around the block, so to speak.



Cheers, :beer:

Hey asshole, why don't you take the trolling outside out of my thread?
No, I'm serious, learn how to fvck. Then she wouldn't go to a 23yr old loser.
Experience rules my man.

Your first love moments are fleeting and flittering away. Life sucks, but it gets better.

Not that I agree with all of this, but it's the extremely rare case that a high school sweetheart marriage goes the distance. The most successful ones are those where both go away to school, probably screw half the campus or not (don't ask don't tell is a great policy here) and get all the mystery of love and life out of their heads.

I would not think of her as messing up her life due to doing this...you have to honestly realize if she had it so well off she probably would not have strayed. Figure out what went wrong on your end (and if you think nothing, think some more...noone is perfect)....

good luck with the next go around...
 
Sorry to hear that. What galls me is that she even bragged about it.

Time will heal, and you'll find someone who is right for you.
 
Sorry man, it's never fun to find out you've been screwed over... literally.

But as time passes, you'll see that your judgment in picking partners will improve.
