Right age to get married??

futurefitgirl88

haha what is your opinion??

I personally think it depends on individuals.... for me....right age would be around 27 when I've grown career wise.....

I'm 23 years old and marriage is the last thing on my mind!! I want to do so much before I want to think about nappies and screaming babies!!! I want to get myself ahead in my career and travel the world...perhaps do doctors without borders in Nigeria and go party in Ibiza!!! When I see people my age with 3 kids who are like 6 years old I can’t help but wonder....why people get hitched so young??

It depends on individuals ofcourse. But help me understand it.....None of my friends my age are married....but a lot of people on here seem to be married at a very young age from what I’ve noticed!! So maybe you guys will help me gain an insight into the situation!

over 24 is good.

I would say it depends on a few factors (i.e. length of the relationship) but I would say between 24 and 50, or even older, would be a good depending on their circumstances.

It's different for everyone. The right age for me to get married will be dead years old.

I'm almost 19, and I know it's a little silly, but I'm waiting for him to pop the question. However, I could also see myself in a long (year or more) engagement.

I know that I love the man I'm with enough to marry him this instant, or wait 5 years. I highly doubt that will change over time (call me naive, sure.)

I'm 19 and can't imagine getting married, I wouldn't be able to deal with that commitment. I always find it strange seeing people I went to school with married.

I think any age over 26 would be ok for me. I guess for some people it's different, it's a matter of opinion.

I got married right before my 23rd birthday. Age was irrelevant. We knew we were going to eventually get married. Already living together, had begun our careers, made decent mula, and I have this big white gown... so what the hey!

I'm 23, and ready to get married. I've finished college, I'm in grad school part-time, I have a career, and more importantly, I live with the man I know without a shadow of a doubt that I want to spend the rest of my life with. I don't think it's age, it's when you're prepared. Some people never are, and some are at 18. When you find the right person, you know.

as a 23 year old divorceé i consider myself the example of what NOT to do. just saying.

I was 25, but definitely agree it depends on the person. Some people are happy with their jobs and make enough money for them without college or grad school. But, with some people whose fulfillment depends on their education and career, completing school would be important. Sometimes other circumstances come in to play, kinda like me with my husband being in Army. But anyway, it definitely depends on the individual.

When you have it all together responsibility wise. My sons are 23 and 21 and i can't see them getting married anytime soon. I was married at 21. If I had to do it all over again I would've waited several more decades..oops I mean years

MelissaL582

My plan was to get married at 25 but I got married at 21 and my husband then was 19 (he was 2 months shy of 20 and he was in the Army at the time). To us it felt right to get married at that point in our lives. I'm 29 years old now with 3 handsome little boys. My parents were both 21 when they got married.

I think a good age to marry is 95. By 95 I won't much care what happens to me and anything will be better than death, even marriage. But until then, I'd rather have my toenails pulled out by a rabid dog tyvm

P.S.: Marriage doesn't mean babies for everyone. And certainly not immediately. It always boggled my mind how people get married and instantly pop out kiddos. Don't you want to enjoy your marriage, kid-free, for at LEAST a year or two?

NEVER

unless you really want to have kids. thats the only good reason i see for anyone to get married

KendraElmendorf

I think around 25. But then again I want to have at least my first child before 30. I had a young mom and i fear being an "old" mom... but that is what I think for me personally.

i got married at the age of 23 yrs old.

papastu

I got married at 21 , had 2 great kids and now im 43, my kids are grown up and I go and do all those things you want to do before you want kids, I would personaly would hate to be 50+ years old with teenagers, I love my life, living it to the max and im still young enough to enjoy it.

Wouldnt change a thing

kevinlynch3

Ummm....I would advise 25+ for women and only when you meet the right person and not until then. People don't really even know who they are until post 25 years old. Yeah, there are always going to be exceptions but they aren't the rule.

Amen (except, you know... for women too)
