Don't marry a flight attendant. And while it is certainly possible and I've seen it work, don't plan your life around your high school crush (unless your boyfriend's name is George Bush, then go ahead). You should do whatever it is you want to do with your life and let the chips fall where they may. Trying to pick matching careers in HS is a recipe for a lot of pain, missed opportunity, and regret down the road. More than half of all marriages end in divorce, don't plan YOUR life around somebody else's, especially at such a young age. And just in case I wasn't clear, don't marry an FA.
And then when they turn 18 and say, “nothing you say will stop me...”
Yeah. Good times.
