text: beautiful love at sixteen, but she is ill and i'm worried? i'm sixteen and have been in love with a beautiful girl for several years. whenever i meet her, it feels as though i have strayed into a dream; we have never argued and it makes me breathless still just to hold her hand. we are both strongly christian. the other day, we talked about getting married and having a family when we are older. it might seem perfect, but there is a complication. she is fifteen and has a rare heart condition that means she is sometimes too ill even to move, and she often feels very tired and weak. it sounds obsessive, but i depend on her completely and i'm frightened her illness will take her life. i could never live without her and it upsets me to think we might never be able to spend the rest of our lives together. what do you think i should do? and is it obsessive and strange to be in love like this and wanting to get married when we are so young? this brought tears to my eyes.  no you're definately not obsessive.  you're definately in love.  the kind of love that most people only dream about or see in movies!!!!  this is a tough one to answer or to give advice.  but this is my advice.  take one day at a time, don't give up on her ever.  always be there for her through these hard times.  15 is kind of young to marry.  i don't know how old you are.  but you could get engaged to her.  just appreciate ever moment you have with her.  and if something does happen to her, and i pray for both of you it doesn't.  you then have truly loved and not really lost her because she'll always be in your heart.  it's not like a breakup with someone.  you wouldn't have been able to help the parting of the two of you.  just pray to god which i'm sure you do everyday that she gets better.  in the mean time just enjoy every moment with her.  and if anything did happen you will find the strength through god to go on.  you seem religious he'll help you through.  and believe it or not a guy like you would find love again someday.  i know you don't want to hear this but i'm just saying if it happened you won't blow away!!!!  i'll pray for both of you and god bless you both hon!!!!!!
