They were prob high school sweethearts, I was in a four year relationship with my high school boyfriend and I was waiting patiently for an engagement when I found out he had cheated. No relationship is perfect but I didn't cheat as well
It's not uncommon now days for an engagement at Lawson's age to not have popped up: even in a long term relationship.
I think a lot of people take their relationship in the house seriously. I think it's good entertainment and I've been in Candice's situation haha. I cringe everytime they are close though. I personally hate it more when 12 year olds dote over how perfect clawson are together and how they want what they have *vom*
