I'm Engaged!! but i have a problem..

He did it last night at midnight..

i know kind of cliche but it was cute and i love him. the ring is gorgeous =]

but my problem is i have no idea how i'm going to tell my parents. it's like telling them im pregnant. im scared that they are going to be upset with me because the latest im getting married is 20 and the earliest being 19. i don't think they will accept it you know?

and i don't want to wait longer i've always wanted to get married young and start my family young.

 

Congratulations!

I was 19 when Scott proposed and i will have just turned 20 when we marry. My lovely mum has had no problem but then weve always had a very close understanding relationship, and she knows im ready, im an adult, and its right

Dont be nervous about telling them, be upfront, honest and open. Its all you can do, right? And of course showing them your responsibility by being independent etc, reassuring them about how you know exactly what youre doing, showing them how youre good together etc

I guess all parents are different. My mum didnt even mention my age, probably because ive always been quite independent and have lived away from her for years now, we just respect eachother as two equal adults. Also because its not a big deal, infct it doesnt matter even a bit that im 2 decades young. But i know the situation will differ from family to family, and i also understand why some parents may be protective. I guess only you can know them well enough to work it out and all i can suggest is total honesty, also having trust in yourself and knowing this is right

Good luck

 

Congrats. As long as he treats you welll what do they have to complain about?

 

my parents love him..

maybe i am just preparing for the worst answer
