Im seventeen and my boyfriend asked me to marry him, and i said yes. We're engaged, but dont know when we're going to get married, and i have a silver ring (no stones) that i wear everyday. How do i break the news to my mom. ive been with this guy for 9 months, and we are sure we are the ones for eachother, plus we arent getting married for at least another year. should i wait to tell her when im 18? or tell her in a convo that i want to marry him?

any suggestions?
 
People were sure the earth was flat and the moon was made of cheese once. If you end up marrying this boy and maybe one day having children (not until you are 25 or more so you can live a little of life without a crying baby), you will most likely need a mum to help you out at times. How hurt will she feel if you aren't honest with her? If you think you are mature enough to be engaged, at least be mature enough to be honest with the people around you.
 
don't tell her your plans to marry him but show your mother how serious you guys are. then, when the time is right (preferably when your 18), she'll have no trouble in accepting it and will be really happy for you. ahh, young love ♥ x
 
Why are you so afraid to tell her? Just come out and say it. She probalby will give you a speech about how you are not ready, which you aren't so you do need to hear it. If you hide this from her, she's just going to be even more hurt and angry.
 
Definitely do not say anything to her until you are both at least 18. It would probably mean alot to her if she thought you waited to decide until you are 18. She doesn't need to know you were really engaged at 17.
 
first, did you have sex before or after being engaged?

you don't even need to think about getting married until 25.

talk to your mom now.
 
As a dad you r to young. i have an 18 year old daughter that thinks the same. give the ring back grow up go to school and get a good job. being married is hard enough for adults. and by the way your mom will not be happy TRUST ME....
 
there is no age limit on being engaged, just on getting married. of course you should tell your mom. she was engaged once also.
