Scared for the future

I am 18 years old, my boyfriend has cf. I have been dating him for 2 years and the fact that he has cf doesn't bother me. He lives a pretty normal life. We have talked about our future together a lot, we both want to get married and have kids. But I know that because of the cf we might not be able to have kids or he might not be able to live a full life. I know that we're both very young and maybe this stuff doesn't matter right now. The problem is that I love him so much and I really feel like he is my soulmate, as foolish as that may sound. I don't know if Im making a mistake by staying with him, because I am so young and I could end up very hurt if something happens to him. I know that sounds selfish but I wonder if I'm putting my life in jeopardy by being with him. Im in such a hard position I really don't know what to do :/

If he feels like your soulmate, go for it. My husband and I started dating when I was 17 and he was 15. We dated 3.5 years, then took a break for some of college and grad school. We both dated around, then got back together and were married within a year. That was 20 years ago. We have two amazing daughters and life is sweet. I dont think either of us regrets a thing. Yes, my health has deteriorated significantly since he met me and we've struggled with that, but he has also gone through difficult times where I have supported him unconditionally. I think part of the reason we work so well together is while we were "seperated" he got Lymes and was paralyzed and very ill for months. I think that really helped him truly understand where I was coming from with regards to my health. If you can have a great give-take relationship that is even, thats wonderful. Be wary of "mothering him" though, that will backfire in the long run.
