well.... first off if i may ask.. how old are you and how old is he? i don't want to jump to conclusions that you are really young since you state you need to finish college because i, at 35, am in college and still need to finish!
i would say it is different for everyone on when somone is ready to marry. take it from us pros who have been there done that, TAKE YOUR TIME before you marry someone. there is no rush to jump into marriage. if you 2 are exclusive then why rush? he'll still be there 2 years from now if it is meant to be and you can marry anytime. i know for me, i wish i would have waited longer before marriage. i will wait longer this time around and really know the man and really be sure, and there is no rush.
most, NOT ALL, but most people who are divorced are a little gun shy of the marriage thing happening again right away. it is such a huge decision. remember, it is supposed to be a forever decision. a forever decision takes lots of time. so much goes into a marriage, and god forbid, if it ends, so much goes into ending it and so much is ripped from you if it does.
no one can predict the future, or no one would ever get married! LOL but just know that marriage is a very big deal, a very big commitment, and really requires lots of time to know someone. and, if he is "smart" he will really wait before taking that plunge again. he will enjoy dating you and being only with you, and really just wait and be sure he is ready for the marriage thing again. be patient, don't push him, finish college, and take it from there. if it is meant to be, it will be.
