First... sorry to hear about your bad family. You deserve to be loved and supported and if they aren't there for you then you are better off without them. Some families are overrated. Unfortunately, everyone doesn't get a picture perfect family to share life with... but there are plenty of good people in this world that will appreciate you and love you for who you are on the inside... surround yourself with them Queen1...

Regarding the marriage... why does it have to be one way or the other? Keep the option of marriage on the table, but maybe wait another 9 months or year... if the other person truly loves you then everything will be fine. If they don't then you just avoided a costly divorce... either way I see nothing wrong with just dating a little longer. In the end, knowing someone for less than a year really isn't all that long. You need a stronger foundation than that. No one on this forum can answer your question, because no one on this forum knows you and the other person, yet alone have seen the two of you interact together. You might as well just flip a coin... For a meaningful answer you'll need a professional counselor. Ask yourself how is the communication in the relationship? No need to respond, just be honest with yourself... You also mentioned that you haven't had sex yet with them, and that is actually a GOOD thing, especially for a woman. Wait until things are more set in concrete before rushing this and you will be happy about it later. I hear your frustration and loneliness and I understand how you may be tempted to want to get married to the other person, but you need to first make peace with yourself, and with what you've said about your family I wonder how your self-esteem is. Getting married to ANYONE won't fix that Queen1, and you have your whole life ahead of you. The fact that you took the time to post this thread should tell you something about your own doubts. I would take things slow, and not rush into something as important as marriage just yet. Keep the option open, just don't rush into it. Whatever you decide I wanted to wish you the best of luck, and I hope things work out in your best interest
