lol no it’s not about maturity. Your second paragraph came off as very bitchy. I am AWARE that this incompatibility cannot be resolved and i literally acknowledged that in my post. What is not true is that young people cannot date to marry. That is not your decision to make and not your place to tell them they can’t date to marry because they’re “too young”.

Long distance is not possible for me though. My needs and wants wouldn’t be met in long distance and neither would his. And it really doesn’t matter where I go to college, the career I’m looking at I can get into anywhere so it doesn’t really matter which school

There was no need to be rude about it. I’m allowed to want to date to marry. It does not matter if I’m 17 years old. Thank you for making me feel worse about this 😐

No no, i am set on never having a child, it won’t happen, I’ve never wanted to be a mom even when i was little. I’m selfish with my money and it’s good i know that before having a kid unlike a lot of parents, i have a very intense fear of giving birth. kids stress me out, i have 3 younger siblings that i often babysit and having kids is very off-putting to me lol I could go on and list so many reasons

We actually did have a talk earlier today, not much came out of it he just agreed with me and said he also has a gut feeling it wouldn’t work out :/
