Hi guys! I'm brand new here, just got engaged on January 7th.
I'm 20 years old and a junior in college, and my fiance (still feel weird typing that) is 22, and a senior. We started dating my sophomore year of high school so I am really thrilled that we're getting married now!

I feel like I'm gonna get sick of the "wow you guys are young" comments though. :/

Anyway, just thought I'd introduce myself. Hi!

Yes, yes, you will. And honestly, they're probably not going to stop anytime soon. I speak from experience. I've been with my FI for over 6 years (we're high school sweethearts too!) and we got engaged when I was 21. I'm now 22 and we're looking to get married next year - I'll be 23 and he'll be 24. People are still on my case about how young we are.

Anyway, welcome and congrats on your engagement! The Students board is a really awesome, supportive community so I'm sure you'll like it here!

Ditto BunnyChii - I don't think it ever goes away! I had a teacher in high school who was 23 and got married at 21 and said that whenever she told people when they got married they still went "you're so young!" So I'm sure we'll all be 30 and telling people when we got engaged/married and people will say "you were so young!" But big congratulations to you and welcome to the board!

Hi and welcome! The young comments don't ever go away, you just get used to them and let them roll right off you!

I don't get the young comments. However, before I was engaged, I got the old comments. "When are you going to get married?" My younger brother got married before me...Then I really got the "you're getting old and need to get married" comments.

So, it's either going to be too young or too old. There's no magic, happy age.

lol! You can't win can you?
well I guess in a way we all win cause we all get to marry people we love, yeah?

Thanks for the warm welcome guys :) I'm lucky my parents are supportive. His are too for the most part, but a his mom is the source of most of the young comments...His parents didnt get married till their mid thirties. But she still gave me a big hug and a "welcome to the family" when we announced our engagement.

So I'm happy :)

Aww I'm loving all the HS sweethearts on here! My fiance and I just got engaged 12/23/11 and are middle school sweethearts. I totally identify with the snarky comments about being young, etc. We are both 23, I'm currently a first year law student and he is a Marine Officer. After 10 yrs of dating I'm def. very excited!!! Congrats to all you ladies!!!! :)

We were both 19 and Sophomores in college when we got married 3 months ago....after dating for a year and a half, so I know about the comments. But congrats!
