Actually you can never overanalyze your future, because it is your future. I believe what you were trying to say was not to fret too much.
He has been in the relationship for a while and if things arent changing now...they probably wont. They are both at the age where they should be begining to look towards the future. Unfortunately I kept it out of mind til I hit 30.
Oh and XS, I came from the same background as you. All my friends in high school had thier parents buy them new cars while I was stuck with a 78 Caprice Classic...ex detective car. It was silver and a real p.o.s.!!! (paid $150 so that should tell you something) I had worked all summer my freshman and sophmore years to save up money for the car and the parts it need to drive it home (another $650) I earned my own $800 $150 car...
Do I regret it...NO! I appreciated that car more than my friends did thier brand new hand outs. Plus when it snowed I actually got traction!!! HA HA!
We can all tell you to do this or that, but what you really need to do is sit down and think...yourself.
What do you want?
When do you want it?
What are you willing to do to get it?
What are willing sacrafices?
What is unacceptable?
Once you know those things...then you will know what to do. Life is to short to second guess. All the should of's and I wish I did's will do nothing but give you an early ulcer and nothing more. With all of this what I am trying to say is there are 3 simple steps that you can use in any situation in life...
1. Weigh you options
2. Make you decision (as informed as possible)
3. Stick to your guns...never second guess once the decision is made
These will help you in any situation...fell free to use them...just remember where you got them from...
