So one of my closest friends wants to get married to her boyfriend as soon as she turns 18. He proposed and everything. They're both 16, hes not super older than her or anything. But when she told me I was like, "No way! I'm so happy for you!" And on the inside I was like, "No no no no no no no no no no" Because, sorry, the idea of marrying your high school sweetheart is not appealing to me. One of my teachers married hers when she turned 18. They went to college, and they both changed so much that they had to get divorced. I don't think a person finds who they are in high school. Our hormones are raging and everyone cares too much about what other people think.
I'm so scared for my friend, I want her to be happy, and to not get hurt. But this is a bad idea. I feel terrible for saying this, but I hope they break up before she turns 18. Then there won't be a wedding. They are such a cute couple but the idea of anyone getting married at 18 seems like such a bad thing to do.
I know I can't tell her what to do, and I'm honored that she would share such a big secret with me(shes only told one other person), and I will support her and do what I can to make sure she's happy, but deep down I know it's a bad idea. I'm just hoping everything will work out so no one gets hurt.
