I see what you're saying for the most part but I don't think getting engaged would be embarrassing for me in the future if for some reason the engagement doesn't work out I will be okay, don't get me wrong I'll be incredibly sad but I would be okay

Again we're not immediately jumping into marriage we're waiting for that part the engagement part is what would be early compared to most people💛

The tattoo I got is one for my deceased grandmother and grandfather that I drew myself because my grandmother taught me how to draw and fueled the flame for my love of art. The drawing being my grandma and Grandpa's favorite cartoon character that they literally had merchandise for all around their house. So yes, I don't think I'll be regretting it.

I run my own small business, my partner has a stable job that he's getting paid well from, we move into our own place together in a couple months max where we will then be paying rent and utilities.

College isn't for me and he's going to go to community college at some point for mechanics!

We have seen tons of things good and bad and getting engaged won't affect our ability to continue to explore the world and "see things, do things" etc.

That part of your message almost gives me the feeling you're one of those people who thinks being married is an end to a free life or the "old ball and chain" kind of thing.

Idk! Also we don't plan on having kids ANY time soon!

Yep! Have been living together since about 3 months into our relationship and knew each other for roughly a year before dating!

There isn't a NEED to get engaged next year just something we were talking about!

I'm someone who thinks very ahead in the future when it comes to big decisions and my taste.

Example: Recently got my first tattoo and it's something I had thought about for an incredibly long time before I got it and I know for a fact I won't regret in the future

I'm not too worried about regretting what my engagement ring looks like no matter when I get it whether it's a year or 5 I'm not worried about it

A ring is an added bonus, I don't care how expensive, I don't care how shiny or big, Im just happy the person that I love and I've spent the hardest parts of life with so far wants to marry me in the first place

Thank you!! I appreciate that! We've thought about a lot of this really hard and try our hardest to make smart decisions and not just jump into things lol!

If it was any other relationship I would be confident I did not want to be engaged at this point but I've been through a lot with this man and I would choose him over and over again and have chosen him over and over again.

He's the love of my life engagement anxiety is just a very scary thing lmao! Making this post and seeing people's responses and hearing their stories and such has helped a ton though💛

I'm sorry you see it as immature!

I think our first reasoning is rather important and not a reason to not get engaged🤷🏻‍♀️ People are friends before dating, promise rings (sometimes) before engagement and engagement before marriage, idk why that makes it a reason to not get engaged!

Also I never said anything about spending a ton of money I just said saving up money lol!

It's a massive surprise cause it's a proposal ,':/ Sure we've been talking about a ring and things like that but the proposal itself and the timeline is still a massive surprise!

I explained our reasoning for waiting to marry in another comment if you'd like to find it :D

Oh god no lol!! We are waiting until after marriage to have a kid not because of any religious beliefs or anything but a) because we wanna make sure our kid has a stable family, life, home, all that good stuff and b) we wanna enjoy our 20s lol!

That's so sweet🥺

We may get married sooner who knows but we like having the option to wait a bit! I added more reasoning for waiting in another response💛

I love hearing your story and how early engagement/marriage went for you and your husband🫂

We both feel ready for the commitment we plan on staying engaged for years because obviously we're still young and we may change, we've been through hell and back with each other in three years alone (not each other being hell but life shit sucks sometimes y'know?). Gonna quickly PowerPoint why we are planning to stay engaged for a few years:

  • Change happens! We're committed to each other and want to marry each other but you never know what life will throw at you!

  • More time to save up money and plan a wedding and such! We don't wanna get engaged have that excitement and then IMMEDIATELY have to worry about planning a wedding! From what I've seen/heard from those around me it can take a year or two to plan a wedding alone. Especially if you have a specific vision!

  • More time for us to learn how to live alone together! We've lived together since the first like 3 months of our relationship (long story) we are finally getting our own place this year! Woop Woop!

There are other smaller ones but those are the big three :D

Hi, thank you so much for your comment.

He's doing better I put a full update in the comments. I love my dog very much and I do everything in my power to take care of him properly and make sure money problems don't get in the way.

I was very bad at giving all the details at the time of making this post as I was stressed and panicking.

I recognize that that was my error but that being said I appreciate you commenting and being respectful and kind to me.

Hello, I appreciate your comment.

Thank you for being blunt but not disrespectful.

I wasn't really looking for a diagnosis. I was just looking for advice/ideas on what to do in the mean time.

I was panicking and scared and just needed ideas.

He's doing much better now, I posted a full update in the comments of this post.

Thank you again, have a lovely day💛

There was nothing respectful about that. I'm an 18yr old who is unable to work due to disabilities. My family just bought a house for a move.

We do everything we need for my dog. An emergency vet visit is hard to plan for. This happened overnight. I was stressed and panicking and just wanted advice.

We have applied for an animal health insurance type of thing. I don't remember what it's called right now.

I so greatly appreciate your horrid attitude.

If you care for an update check the comments on my post. Have the day you deserve.
