Is It A Bad Idea To Marry The First Guy You Fall In Love With?

After all of the well wishes and eager questions (How did he ask? Have you set a date? Were you surprised?), I received a few raised eyebrows. You haven’t even dated that many guys. How do you know he’s the one? You haven’t even been together for a year. Are you sure? In a society that commends (or at least doesn’t question) spur of the moment decisions like hooking up and getting tattoos, such questions seemed a bit laughable and more than a touch ironic. We weren’t just running with a feeling. We were acting on love — a love deeply rooted and ready to flourish even more.
