You came looking for advice. People are telling you to chill and slow down. You can listen or not listen but if you just want people to tell you what you want to hear then you are probably wasting your time. One week = infatuation. Not love.
My wife and I dated for 3 years before we got married, and we both acknowledge that we got married before we should have. It turned out fine but after 6 months the next two years were horrible. Don't rush.

Just make sure that she's putting in the same amount of effort that you are. I met my gf online, waited a year, then left everything and moved to Michigan to be with her. I put all the effort into making it happen, and after 2 years things blew up. We've now been together for 7 years, but probably only loved each other for half that. I'd say that the only thing that matters is people's devotion to each other and the fact that they will put effort into making it work. Try not to end up "still working things out" after 7 years. She still doesn't even know what pizza I like or what groceries to get me. Make sure she feels something for you and isn't just using you for your house and stability. Make sure that her heart is into you and that you're not just the "logical" choice.

Yeah....this. It's hard for me to really give advice in this regard and not be condescending. I would just not even think about it until at least six months. People get infatuated with others all the time. It sounds like you have puppy love, which usually you're over by the time you're 29.

I think infatuation can happen at any age. Maybe you're more susceptible to it in your teens or early 20s but I've seen too many people in their 40s still making the same dumb mistakes.

If you do anything of the marrying kind, talk to an attorney and draft yourself up a nice pre-nup. Never leave yourself susceptible to any low blows, especially with someone who is that young.

I don't even know what to say other than somebody should warn the girl, because you're throwing up all kinds of red flags, bro.
YOU. DO. NOT. KNOW. HER.

Yeah no point adding to things here, but you've been dating a week... Also she sounds a bit loony - saying you are the one she is going to marry already... That would scare the **** out of me.

I remember girls like this. They start saying it so one day they can tell their friends and have it be a good story. No matter how many guys they have to tell prior to the guy they eventually marry.

I once had a girl that told me she thought I was "the one" and openly fantasized about marrying me.
She eventually broke up with me in the back seat of my car.
...Looking back, God was that an unhealthy relationship.

It's perplexes me as to why a good 75% of you are so set on making every girl you meet your girlfriend.

because having a girl who will **** you on the reg is better than putting in the effort on multiple girls.

I guess you guys are different than me but the **** I want the label of a relationship for if I aint into a ***** and can get sex elsewhere without committing just for the **** of it?
This the reason you guys end up with bitches you cant stand long term because you got in it for sex, and then stick with her out of laziness, then one day you'll find yourself telling all your friends about how you'd do it different if you had another chance.
I aint trying to have a ***** on my nuts, digging in my life and ****, just so I can bust a nut. Relationships to me are last resorts, like "**** I can't stand to think of you with someone else" type ****. I ain't trying to be in a relationship unless it's because I like being with a female more than I like being without her.
