There are really two major issues you need to deal with here!

One: You being 18 years old.

Don't Get Married at 18

I know how it is, you are in love. Love is a powerful element in our lives. I know because I've been with the same person for almost 5 years and when I was 18 I wanted to marry to him ASAP! I'm not going to get all parental on you but the best way I can put is...... DO NOT GET MARRIED AT 18!!!!!!!!!!

I figured back then, "Hey I'm in love what else do I need." But just like you I needed to learn how to first really understand him and myself first. Healthy Communication is what you need and I do not think your going to achieve that by August.

Number 2: If your fighting now, don't think that things will be any better when you get married.

It Will Only Get Tougher When You are Married

I agree, it does get tougher when you get married. Couple counseling could help.

Times always get tougher when you eliminate the chance to leave the relationship by getting married. You and him dating is the time to figure out your differences and handle them correctly. Flying off the handle is a childish thing to do. But don't forget although you feel as though you both have jobs and grownup responsibilities you are only 18 & 21.

Take your time, marriage can wait. My grandfather always said "you'll be married a lot longer than being single". Eventually you'll learn from your mistakes so that when you decide to get married you'll be somewhat prepared to face the bigger problems that come along.

The key here is time and that is what both of you need.
