Life isn't fair, no matter how hard you try to make it. You are still very young and you have no idea what planning for the future is yet......even with someone else. Ride the wave of Happiness while it lasts; I hope it lasts forever, but time is your enemy. As you grow older, both of you will change and the 2 of you will develop different tastes and attitudes. Money and Sex are the 2 things that break up most relationships. I know what you are thinking......our sex life is great, but will it always be? Will he want something else or someone else (the same goes for you)? Money and credit are everything in this day and age. Plus saving for retirement Should start now!!! (I have 26 years until my own retirement and I plan on having somewhere between 1 to 5 million is cash and assets by that time......I started very early ). People want things...cars, homes, gadgets, jewelry, and all kinds of status symbols. You need to shake that impulse habit you have now!!! There is a very short word that is so hard to say, but you have to say it if you want to get ahead in this world........and that word is NO!!! I will give you a homework assignment......I don't need to see it, this is for your own piece of mind. Write down 10 short term goals (1 to 5 years), but be realistic. Then Write down 20 long term goals (10 to 50 years), be very realistic here. Then ask yourself how will I accomplish these by myself (with no relationship in mind). I want you to keep in mind that children cost tons of money and sometime parents (responsible parents anyway) sometimes have to do without for the benefit of their kids. You are still oh so very young.......I hope this will help you out in the long run. I am not trying to be a downer, but love like you want is a full time 100% commitment......there is no "I or me", just "us and we." Are the 2 of you prepared for that? And also if children are involved......that is a life time commitment even if the 2 of you don't make it (unless you're some sort of deadbeat).

Is the stinging over with?
I hope I helped, but so many couples rush into things they have no idea what they are getting into......before it is too late. Take time in getting to know one other......like years. That is my best advise!!!
