My mom thinks I'm making a mistake

I just told my mom last nite that I’m moving in with my boyfriend. I guess the catch is we have only dated for four months, it will be five by the time I move in. And this is my first boyfriend ever. We have had sex, and there is that slight chance that I’m pregnant but that isn’t a problem yet.

She keeps saying that I’m making a mistake and that I have a lot to learn, and that I’m going to end up like the rest of the girls on the indian reservation. (FYI he isn’t even native anyways but rules still apply), and that I should’t have “opened my legs” to the first guy I dated.

Here is the thing, we are very dedicated to each other. We have the same goals and values out of life and how we want to live, and how many kids we want. We want to only be with each other and we are very much in love. btw I’m 19 and he is 21. We were even in love before we had sex. I guess I don’t see anything wrong with what we are doing, but she does…how am I suppose to convince her that this is real?

Answer #1

I agree with your mother.

Answer #2

btw we are in a long distance relationship, which makes it so much harder on us.

Answer #3

That’s fine thanks for the advice. But both my boyfriend and I plan to prove her wrong. Because that’s how dedicated to each other we are, we love each other enough not to let others think what we are doing is wrong. We don’t want to be with anyone else. I don’t care if you guys or my mother think I’m naive. That’s fine, people can think what they what. But what I know is that, a person needs to find someone with the same values, and is not in it for just sex, money, what have you. But for actual committment, and that is hard to find in a guy these days. It’s hard to find a guy who already has a steady job with good pay, and the fac that I’m going to school still no matter what. I don’t think I can find anyone better than what I have found. And I am sticking by him no matter what. A person only has their word and I have to trust that if I want this to work.

But thanks for the advice anyways, it just made me want to stay in this relationship even more.

Answer #4

sorry, but I agree with your mother

Answer #5

I agree with your mother too

Answer #6

It’s a coin toss. 50% of marriages end in divorce, more so for relationships. BUT, yours might fall on the good side of the odds. Don’t burn any bridges behind you and go for it.

Answer #7

sorry but I agree with your mother, you never know what might happen and four months isn’t that long, I know you say you’re in love and I believe that but I think you should wait a bit longer before you move in together.

Answer #8

Yeah I decided not too also. But I am moving closer to him. My credits have already transferred to the college close by.
