Too soon?
Relationship Stress / by bubbleApple8366

...See more My boyfriend and I have been dating for a little over 2 years now. I'm 20 and in college and hes 21 and lives by himself and has a job. I love him a lot. We have one of those relationships where it sneaks up on you because you were best friends first then grew closer and closer until you couldn't stay away. Being with him has its ups and downs. More ups than downs. But theres this one thing that I cant help but feel mad about everytime he mentions it. Thats marriage and kids. I want to get married and I want to start a family and I cant imagine anyone else I'd do it with. But he wants to get married right when I graduate college. That's about 2 years fromlow, by then we would have been dating for 4 years. That seems like a normal amount of time, but I cant help but feel like it's not long enough. I want to wait longer. My idea is to be able to graduate, get a job and move out on my own. He wants us to be married by that time. I dont know why but I feel like I just dont want that. Even though I for sure do. He has also mentioned the idea of marrying me and having kids with me since we basically started dating. Which Is really fast for someone. Especially someone like me who hasn't had a real relationship before him. Am I crazy for wanting to push it back further and further? I cant help but feel like he will get frustrated with me if I do that. Is this just commitment anxiety, if that's a thing. I hope I get over this.

...See more I'm a 20 year old college student. I've been trying to keep my calm with all of this coronavirus stuff, but it doesnt help that I dont have a place where I can be alone. Currently I am dealing with all of my assignments and I'm moving away from my childhood home. Its not really my childhood home but it's the house I've stayed the longest in, only 10 years. I havent been diagnosed with any mental disorders, but I have this thing called polycystic ovary syndrome which messes with my hormones a lot. Basically I'm emotional 24/7. My mom recently started to work from home but she didnt have a place to put her office. That is until I offered my room since it's the biggest and cleanest room in the house. I didn't realize how big of an issue it would be, not having my room to be able to be alone. I cant help but be irritated all of the time because I dont have a place I can be alone but I'm also sad all of the time because I'm moving to a new city. Away from the place I graduated high school and have so many other fond memories. I know the move is necessary because my mom really needs her own office space. But i cant help but feel upset. While simultaneously packing up the entire house, I also have to complete all of my assignments for school, which are piling up by the second. I feel so overwhelmed and I havent slept in what feels like days. Although that could be because of my PCOS. It will all be ok soon. I hope.
