Who Married Their First Love?

[Iffy]

Hallo!

I'm doing a survey and would like to know:

1)Who married their first love and are still together?

These days, many people do not believe in waiting for God's best because of the way society is now. Even well-intentioned Christians say you have to experience different relationships to find the right one/know what kind of person suits you.


Can you answer question 1) and if you have any opinions, they are welcome.

If you know any other forums (Christian/secular) in which I can conduct this survey, I would appreciate it very much if you can let me know.

Thank you,
Iffy

Hi Iffy!
well I didn't marry my first love, nor my second, nor my third...well you get the picture! I hope your survey goes well! I have a friend who married someone she has known since kindergarten! they had a picture taken together for Halloween when they were 5, they dressed up as a bride and a groom...and you guessed it, 25 years later...happily married...they are wonderful! Best of luck with your survey! Love and blessings to you!
Amie

Praise God I didn't marry my first love. I could have. It would have been the biggest mistake in my life. I feel sorry for people who make that mistake. (marrying the wrong person)

I DID!! I was married at 19 and and have been married 13 years! We've had our ups and downs of course but we are hanging in there!

As with Mr. Cheese, I thank God I did not.

If I ever marry again, it will be to my last love. (not sure if that sound right...)

Oddly, I did, but sort of by accident. I really liked this girl in 7th grade, then I moved on and never saw her again; we never dated, kissed, or had any kind of interest in each other, but I always thought she was a wonderful girl, and I occasionally wondered what happened to her.

About ten years later, I found out, and we fell in love, and we've been together ever since. It hasn't been perfect, but it's been quite good.

I remember all the puppy loves- but this isnt what your talkin about. I believe your talking about the first time you actually realized you love some- correct ?

I married to my first love. We have been together since I was 15, I am now 23. He and I have been together for a total of 9 years but have been married for 3 1/2 yrs.

And I am still married and very much in love..oh he is 35..yeah yeah..I married an older man..

Hers my story i posted a while back:

Im 21 and my love is 14... she and I are both still virgins and will remain till we marry. I am waiting on her to get out of school before we pursue the relationship- I am hopeing to marry her- my first TRUE love My cousin Jess introduced me to Crissy and we began talking and finally the day I would meet Crissy and her family came. I politley drove to the house, knocked on the door, and was welcomed in. At that time Crissy was still getting ready so her parents and I had 'the talk' if ya know what I mean-- about that time Crissy had finished getting ready and was there in the chair across from me. A few minutes passed and her paents had finished 'the talk' and walked out the Michelle. I was in shock-- neither could i take my eyes off of her, So her parents introduce me to Crissys younger sister and then she and I shook hands... (zap) we were both standing there breathless and stareing each other in the eyes... it was a picture perfect moment

Hmm good question. There was someone I dated my 4years of high school who I thought was my first love. We broke up right before graduation, he was older. At 18 I met my husband and we were married by the time I turned 19. It took a few years for me to realize that my husband is my first love. The other guy? I think now that I was just learning about relationships and love, because with my husband it feels different. More solid, and the feeling of love is incredible. So yeah, I married my first love.

I'm a little concerned about the difference in your ages.

A 21 year old is an adult, but a 14 year old is still a child. She is still learning about herself and about where she fits into God's plan.

I urge you to put your relationship with this young girl on hold until she is of age.

This is why we are waiting till she get out of school- so she will be older, more mature (mentally as well as physically)-- so she will know what she wants- and what God wants for her

I married my first boyfriend and first love when I was 19 years old. I met him when I was 15, we have been married 33 years this year. However, I think we were fortunate that our marriage has lasted so long. We were very young when we married and had little experience of the world. I am pleased that my daughters had other relationships before settling down with their husbands.

I had a few crushes before I met my husband. One crush lasted for 5 years--he didn't even know I existed . but then when I met my husband I knew that he was my one and only love, and those other guys were just....infatuation.

 

[ZooMom]

I met my husband when I was 16, married at 18, and we will have our 13th wedding anniversary this July. I had never loved anyone before. I knew the first day that he was the one for me, and now I only love him more.

 

[oncewaslost]
