High School Sweethearts - Talk About Marriage

Hi all, I'm a long-time lurker (found this board like 5 minutes ago, actually) and thought I'd do something.

Ever since I picked up one of those damn Chicken Soup books in my aunt's bathroom as a teenager, I knew I was destined to be something special.

I planned on incorporating that first sentence into my post, but I can't remember how it fit in now. To condense the exposition as much as possible: I met this absolutely gorgeous girl in elementary school and it blossomed into your typical love-story. We talked probably 3 times from second grade to high school and then fell madly in love over a chance MSN Messenger conversation (those were the days, weren't they?). Fast forward to now. I'm approaching senior status in college and we've been together for a wonderful 7 years.

We've lived separately throughout our relationship (including college), but it's reached the point where we spend at least 4-5 nights of the week together. As for all that "you won't know them until you've lived with them," pffffft. She knows I'm going to brush my teeth after breakfast every morning, and I know that in the case of visitors, the toilet is off-limits for the day.

With the possibility of moving off after college for jobs and better restaurants looming, marriage is heavy on my mind, and I suppose that's how I wound up here. The idea of tying the knot has claimed an exponentially growing sector in the ol' noggin, and the pressure is really starting to build. Our relationship has been perfect sans the typical 100 calorie mishaps along the way, although I'd definitely say we hit a Quarter Pounder this summer that left me full for days. I'm not willing to disclose details but that event somehow solidified the idea that I want to marry this woman more than anything I've ever wanted in my life. My sole desire in life is to make her as happy/comfortable as possible, and I'll do everything in my power to make that happen.

Now, I come to this forum knowing that I'm young and have much to learn, but I'd love to hear any input from those of you who have built upon a successful early start.

BTW, if they make a movie about me someday where I'm the idealistic kid that gets off to a running start with his high school sweetheart and then turns into a total bum, I'm gonna be so pissed.
