Personally (and really this is all personal, which is why I know I shouldn't criticize JJ for this), I don't think you should get engaged before you're ready to get married. Getting engaged should say "okay, I'm ready to marry this girl, we just have to plan the wedding." NOT "someday I want to marry this girl." I think too many people get engaged when they're freshly in love and haven't known each other for long enough. IMO, 7 months isn't even close to long enough. Since 2007, I've seen four couples get engaged. One had been together for 6 years. They've now been married for 6 months, who knows if it'll work out.
One was together for 8 months. Engagement lasted about 3 before they broke up Another one was almost identical to that except they were 'engaged' for closer to a year. One was together for somewhere around a year (not sure exactly how long), decided to get engaged, eloped, and divorced a month later.

THE FACT IS, true love/ soul mate / love at first sight, WHATEVER, the longer you've been around a person, the better you know them. The better you know the goods, the bads, everything.


Love is nothing to do with destined perfection, the connection is strengthened, the affection simply grows over time.

This may sound cheesy, but I personally think that you're never entirely "ready" for anything that comes in love.

The people hating on JJ in this thread are quite annoying. Yes, their time together has been short, but you don't know better than anyone else which time is the best time. Least of all do you know better than the two lovers in question.

Also even with prior experience its no ones choice to make but theirs

While I hate that they are both so young, I agree with Kaz.

We don't know what the two have been through. What may take years for one these two have done in a matter of months.
Best of luck JJ.  happydood;
