I just wrote a whole thing on here! And I went to post it & it did not post, directed me to the login page and I lost everything I had just written. So I am writing it again..
I have a wonderful boyfriend, he is ambitious, sweet, &he can always make me smile. We have been living together over 6 months and everything is going great, except the finances,(sometimes) but who isn't having financial problems these days? I am very happy with him, but sometimes, specifically the last couple weeks, it has been a little hard.. But I feel that if we get through this hard time, it will make us so much stronger.
The dilemma: An old friend called me. We engaged in what I thought to be a friendly converstation. And he asked me if he was marriage material and I answered yes. To later find out, he wants me to marry him. We have been friends for quite a while and I did have feelings for him. I knew he had feelings for me also, but I wasn't sure if our goals were the same. And they just remained silent questions... We never discussed how we felt about eachother. And now he just comes into my life wanting a marriage and before, I didn't even want to get married... Until I met my boyfriend because I feel so strongly for him that he changed my mind and opened me up to a world of new ideas; like marriage. But this guy(my friend) just made everything seem like a wonderful fairytale; we would get married and travel for a year and come home and start a family. And it's a wonderful idea, I am just not sure what to do. This guy is very put together and successful and has his career going already. My boyfriend has possibilities and ambitions but I am not sure when we will, if ever, start our lives together. If that makes sense...
Do I stay with my boyfriend, who does make me happy?
Or do I go with a 'crush' and live a proposed fairytale?
