I don’t know if she’s right. Should I just get into a relationship and see what happens?

Not sure about being with him

00:00

I am a 24-year-old woman and I have been going out regularly with a guy two years older. He’s a lot of fun and I genuinely enjoy hanging out with him. I know he likes me a lot and, a few days ago, he asked if I would ever consider a relationship with him. I told him I needed time to think about it because even though our meetings are always nice, there’s a part of me that feels as if he is not right for me. He is too casual about life, and I don’t get any sense of stability from him. I told my friends about this and one of them told me I was taking life too seriously. She says I am young, and I should not worry too much about what the future holds. I don’t know if she’s right. Should I just get into a relationship and see what happens?
You are perfectly entitled to consider a relationship and go along with what happens, but you’re also an adult who should learn to trust your instincts more. Your friends may have valid points of view, but you also have the right to do what you think is best for you based on how you feel. It’s true that no one can predict the outcome of any relationship, or friendship, but getting into anything if your heart isn’t in it sets the wrong tone. Why not meet him a few more times, weigh the situation based on how well you get to know him, and see if your opinion of him changes? You are under no obligation to do anything you’re not comfortable with and, if he is willing to wait, you may reconsider what you believe to be casual or frivolous behaviour on his part.

How can I help my boyfriend lose weight?
You can ask him if there’s anything you can do to support him, but this is ultimately something he alone can manage because you can’t control someone else’s body.
