[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. Yes, they live together in the same tiny apartment and attend the same medical school (when they applied, about 5 months after they started dating, they made it a priority to apply to the same/similar places so they could end up together and were lucky enough to get in their dream med school together). They're planning a 2 year engagement because they're still relatively young (so getting married at 24)[/quote]

So many red flags here. I do hope it works out for them [/quote]

I don’t see any red flags here; I don’t know what’s wrong with you.[/quote]

Np here. But here are the red flags o ser.
Building your future around someone you have known for 5 months.
Applying to the same schools.- limiting options

Living together - sharing expenses thankfully it's only an apartment.

Lots of room for staying together due to inertia and not because it's the right thing for both of them. This also applies to residency applications

Also highly likely that if things don't go as planned one completely crashes and falls apart.

These aren’t red flags.  If you are choosing to marry someone, you are building a life with that person.  If things like sharing expenses and feeling tied to someone else aren’t your thing, don’t get engaged or married.  But for someone who does want those things, like OP’s child, this are exactly the steps you take to start sharing your life permanently with another.[/quote]

They aren't married. They are engaged and hastily so and made these decisions while barely dating.
That's not a mark of maturity or wisdom.

It's puppy love and immaturity at it's finest.

But someone like yourself Prolife, anti abortion, Focus on the Family subscriber can't see that because the only things that matter are marriage and babies.
You're probably in that other thread laughing about how it's totally cool for spouses to have tantrums and verbally attack each other just to claim 20 years [/quote]

They are starting a two year long engagement!  That’s hardly hasty. [/quote]

If you need to be engaged for 2 years it's hasty[/quote]
