Haha, Ms.Brew - we started dating when I was in 11th and he was in 10th and we're getting married about two weeks before our 5 year anniversary too!
Good to hear! I don't personally know many couples that married there highschool love...
Hubby and I did :) well, I was in high school and hubby had just started college (he's a late bday, and I'm early so he's only 2 years older than me. He was only 17 when he graduated college**). I was 16 when we actually started dating, but we liked each other a year before that. 5 years later, we got married :) I'm young too, but the only people that really ever said anything about it were people who didn't know us. My family had been asking for a long time if I was engaged yet and would ask to see my hand and stuff periodically to see if there was a ring there lol
**I wasnt thinking straight, I meant HIGH SCHOOL! lol
Ignore those people...they've probably "experimented" and are still alone! You are lucky to be very happy with your one and only Fi! This didn't happen for me, but it did for my BFF. Her and her Fi have been together since the 10th grade too! So now its 13 yrs later, they just got engaged 5 mons ago, but they're just as happy now as they were then! So I do believe in first loves, and there's no need to experiment anyway cause all the good ones are taken (by us!)
we're high school sweethearts too! :)
we "dated" freshman year, broke up for a while and then junior year (11th grade) we just sort of went for it again... and here we are!
I think part of me always knew he was the one--he laughed at all my corny jokes. I had doubts if he would always want to be with me, and I offered him an "out" several times. He wasn't interested... and neither was I. It's not like you plan to be HS sweethearts, but if you know they're the one, then that's what matters! (Of course, give it enough time to actually develop! We've been dating for five years... on and off for seven!) Don't worry about the negativity!
Fi and I dated for 2 months when we were 13, and then got back together when we were 17, the week after I moved 300 miles away for college. We have been doing to long distance thing for over 5 years now. Hopefully soon Ill find a job back home. We're getting married next may!
Doing the long distance thing wasnt horrible, and neither is being high school sweet hearts.
We'll be 22 and 23 when we get married. I love when people tell me we're too young because we havent experienced enough. I always resond with "We'd rather experience it together."
@Joeswifey - That is def what i have been focusing on too is that FAMILY and friends were the ones anxiously awaiting our engagement. Sounds like you got a catch! And a smart one too ;p
@Jingle96 - Thanks! Always good to hear. It is true though most of the "haters" (lol) are single men in there 30s/40s or same age WISHING they were single and could mingle..
oops! lol I'm getting tired. I meant high school :p lol definitely not college xD My bad! He's smart, but not THAT smart lol
I'm one!!
Matt and I met in 8th grade and started dating our senior year of high school. Been together ever since. We've been through a lot together and have consistently been happy and patient and a great team. I've also experienced the "you need to experience other men" comment, well, you know what - I dated other people before Matt and nobody swept me off my feet. When you know, you know!
@Ms.Brew: I cannot believe what people are saying to you! I really admire your and Mr. Brew's devotion to one another, and it's so amazing to be able to say that you're marrying your first love!
Mr. Parfait and I met in high school and had a few flirtatious encounters...but I was a junior and he was a freshman, and I was not about to go there! Heehee. He was really cute, though, and we eventually started dating after college.

Did anyone meet/start dating there FI/Husband in highschool?
We met when i was in 10th grade and him 11th. Our wedding will be our 5 years later.. He happened to be my first "real love." I KNOW i am young, and frankly im tired of people telling me that! :p Lol No, it's normally just random people/people at work that try to judge me for "not experiencing other men." That is always the response to getting married at 21 years old. My personal values will not change, so i find it rude that people pin this negative attitude towards highschool loves that "they almost never work out." Or that i should "take a break and sleep around?!!?" (Seriously!)
My FI completes and satisfies me in every way, i could hardly say one complaint about him (okay, he sucks at laundry!) ;p I am continually happy, and we continue to grow together every day.... Why would i want to give that up and "SEE" what else is out there?
It doesn't really upset me anymore like it used to, i am secure enough with it to brush it off. However, it does bother me just a little that there is that negativity out there.
