Basically, I'm wondering if there's a chance my boyfriend and I might be meant for each other or if I'm just blinded by that whole teenage first love thing. I'm 17, he's 18. We're both really strong in our faith and we didn't rush into a relationship...we'd both committed previously to not dating until it seemed like God brought somebody to us. And I prayed long and hard about it, and I really think I'm not just fooling myself into thinking he's "the one" because I want to date him. It's the sort of thing where I read one those Christian teen girls' dating books awhile back and made that list for myself of everything I want in a guy and when God brought the right one along, he'd match it. And he does. Everything on it. Down to eye color.
But on the other hand...this is the only serious relationship I've ever had. Sure, I've had boyfriends before, but this is the first time I've ever considered myself "in love" with somebody. And I know it's the typical teenage deal to think you're going to marry your first love, but I also know it happens sometimes. And that it works out.
This might be kind of silly, asking the Internet, as y'all don't know anything about me or him, and it might be a better idea for me to ask an adult mentor of mine around here, but I suppose I'm just wondering. Am I just being the typical 17 year old girl with a crush here?
