I had "relationships" when I was a teenager. A pretty horrific one turned me into a person that resigned themselves to being single forever and I was fine with that...until I met Grant.
At 20/21 a relationship is something completely different to how it was before for me. We see each other just enough, neither of us hold each other back or stop the other from doing something, and if something needs discussing then we discuss it like adults. In light conversation, we've discussed all sorts of future plans but neither of us have set anything in stone, we're still young and want to do so much together before that time comes. When I resigned myself to being single it was because I honestly didn't want another relationship, couldn't see myself in one - then Grant showed me what a real relationship is. And when you find someone you can imagine spending a lot more time with than just the nights down the pub...you know lolI don't know anyone I can have more of a laugh and fun with, who treats me right, and who makes me more happy - had I stuck by my guns when I met him and decided to not pursue him further (sounds a bit creepy..), the invention of a time machine and slap to the face would be in order.
I've known guys younger than me (16-20) that literally set their life goal at that age,and it's to meet a girl. If they haven't met the right person, it's the end of the world and their 16 year old life. They seemed to set their minds on marriage and kids at that age and spent all their time looking for the right girl, never did anything else. I think back now to when I was 16 - I wasn't even thinking of guys, I wanted to go places and do awesome stuff and read books and learn how to play instruments. Enjoy myself.
It's a tad early to be thinking about marriage at your age in my opinion...I'm still too young to be thinking seriously about it too lol. Like you said, you might change so I wouldn't make your mind up so soon
