How likely do you believe that people who date in high school ever get married?

… :D

Answer #1

I’ve seen it happen before, but a lot of times it doesn’t work out. My sister and her boyfriend dated all through high school and college and they are still together. Normally when people split paths and go to college, it’s hard to stay together. I believe if both people want it to work, they can make it work. Keep a strong understanding relationship and anything is possible. (:

Answer #2

Rare….go separate ways/different colleges/distance, etc…people at 17/18 often are very different people by 21….possible, but lots of factors make it difficult to say the least….

Answer #3

Not very likely, but it’s definitely not impossible either. I tried looking up the percentage and found that apparently less than 2% of high school sweethearts actually end up getting married and not divorcing. My parents started dating in high school and they’re still together!

Answer #4

my uncle married a girl in the college
she’s a bit younger. it’s what god wanted for them :D> a happy couple.

Answer #5

a little* younger he’s 26-27 now.

Answer #6

Rare. Highly unlikely. Majority of the kids in highschool are too immature for relationships and also, it’s a time in a person’s life where you undergo MANY changes. The person you date in highschool, may be an entirely different person out of highschool. It’s just extremely rare, not that it doesn’t happen. My parents met and dated in highschool. A couple in highschool should probably focus on each day as it comes, if they happen to end up together in the end then they were right for eachother and probably end up with a damn good love story.

Answer #7

Not all the time

Answer #8

not very likely which is sad because my b/f and have been together since 8th grade and we will be seniors next school year and are planning to go to the same college

Answer #9

I know a couple people, it’s to get 2 people together at that age, they both need to be similar and sincere and to be content to not wonder what else is out there. They keep bringing stuff to the relationship so it never gets boring. and a lot of effort on both sides to go against all odds and temptation.

Answer #10

It’s possible, but very rare. I mean yeah you might have a “high school sweetheart” and imagine your life with that person.. but once you actualy LIVE with that person things change, they turn out to a person that’s completly different from what you imagined, like I always say; you never know a person completly (:

Answer #11

Honestly, it depends on the people. Very rare does it ever work out. My parents got married and they were high school sweethearts. Unfortunately people do change they had 4 children been together over 20 years and they’re currently getting a divorce. I wish everyone the best in their relationships but people change after high school you grow and most of the time in different directions from your partner. My ex and I dated for 4 years 2 in high school and 2 out of highschool. While we were in high school we were all lovey dovey and everything was great etc. and then after we graduated we started growing apart. You’ve hit that partying stage too. It was hard. But again it depends on the people. Some people are just meant to be together. :D

Answer #12

I have a lot of friends who married their high school sweethearts and only one have divorced. I also have married my high school sweetheart. At times it is difficult because we are so young and have a lot of growing to do as individuals and as a married couple. Once married and living together you realize so many different things about one another and to some it could be what you would call deal breakers. If you’re considering marrying the guy you’re with now live together for at least a year before actually considering because you will learn a lot about yourself and one another and it may not be what you thought you wanted.

Answer #13

You know what? It doesn’t happen very often. But that doesn’t mean to not give it a chance! Because sometimes it does.
