Need a little Help

    So my life is almost complete and I have been dating the same guy for about 4 years now. Well he mentioned to me the other day, about getting engaged, I mean I am a senior and I am graduating this year,, but I am scared. Mainly because I guess I never thought that I would find the right one. But having cold feet is that normal.

    Haha.
    I believe that having cold feet for anything is normal.
    I know it probaby seems weird.
    But I mean follow you heart (how cheesy. everyone says that. but its true) if your heart says "go for it" then for it.
    I think everyone gets cold feet when they hear about marriage.
    And even if you got engaged now, you still don't have to get married right away.
    If you want you can wait years to get married after you get engaged.
    You wait to do it until your ready.

    And finding the right one is always a strange feeling.
    your so happy that you have him/her but then at the same time, your already worried about losing them.
    I guess i cant see whats going on in your head so i cant say "marry him" or "dont marry him"
    But I can say that completely follow your heart.
    Because that is whats really going to tell you if you should get engaged or not.
    Even though its good to get advice from other people, its your decision.
    and when it all comes down.
    Its you that makes the choice.

    Brittany i had my friend do that to me i still havent forgiven her... If he started playing with you he porbly likes you, your also young some guys dont even think about dating their friends at that age, i know at school if you date one of your best mates its like suicide.... o.O which i dont get personally lol. Maybe you should try and talk to him about something you know he likes or just make small chat just to try and stop him ignoring you, and if your feeling brave ask him why his been ignoring you, but try and do this nicly and try and not sound to desperate for an answer

    Midnitestars89 ^-^ its quiet common to get cold feet, i mean not every one finds their soul mate and it sounds like you have. Also marrige is a big step in life so its natural at a youngish age to feel a bit querkey, But you just got to follow your heart and know your making the best disision in your life.

    Wow..i dont know how it feels, but i do know that it is okay to be scared. But as long as you dont have doubts everything should be fine. What are you scared of. If he loves you and you love him...then heck get engaged, but stay engaged for a year, cuz thats when the colors begin to blend. dont stress so much. Just go with the flow..I mean you only talked about it...its not actually happening....Gob bless you

    I'd say having some doubts is pretty common. Especially considering... well, if you've been dating this fellow for four years, then you were around 14 when you started dating, right? I'd guess that you've never significantly been in a relationship with anyone else. That wouild probably make -me- nervous, but that's just a personal thing. There are plenty of people who start dating at a young age and end up together. However, maybe you're just uncertain because you've never had anything else to compare it to, so you feel like you can't be totally sure whether it's right? Question mark? Just a thought.

    Having cold feet isn't anything serious. :] And having doubts is normal, too. But since you are, you should think it through, you know. Think about what it is you truly want. And if it's him, then I say go for it! :]

    "Omg marry him u might never get a chance like this ever again"

    ^I completely disagree. Unless that was sarcasm.

    There's no need to rush things- you have all your life to figure out exactly what you want and who you want to be with. Think of it this way: if he IS your 'one' (or whatever you want to call it), then there's no rush in getting engaged. Wait until you're sure.
