At 18+ you can get married of your own free will.
At 16+ you can get married with your parents permission & signed consent form.
At 15 and under, you can get married with your parents permission & signed consent, but in addition you will need the signed consent of a judge. It is not common, but its not impossible. You will need to prove your case, and you will need to be 100% supported by him financially or you will never get permission. Assuming that he is also under 18, he will need parental permission as well. If he's not under 18, there is zero possibility of getting permission. You are below the age of consent, so the court considers this rape and will not allow it. In fact, if you even present the issue, you may be putting him at risk.

I would say the chances of you getting all of those things are extremely unlikely, but don't worry. If you love your boyfriend and know you're going to be with him forever, then you don't need to be married right now. Marriage is just a piece of paper, as long as you're together thats all that really matters.

Wow.... you are 14. If you live until you are 100. Than you just based your entire future on those measly 14 years of knowledge. Are you already pregnant? If not, than I wouldn't try to do it on purpose. As far as getting married, sure its possible with consent of your legal guardians. Do I recommend you get married at your age... NO.. heck no... you don't even know who you are at age 14, you will change soo much every year for the next 10 years... When you are 24, you will think about all the crazy thoughts you had when you were 14. You will look back and laugh at yourself, possibly be dissappointed in yourself, wonder why you did what you did when you were 14. But hey, don't listen to me, I mean you are a big grown up 14 year old... you are entitled to make your own mistakes... you need to learn somehow! Good luck to you and your future!
