In your opinion, what is an acceptable age to get engaged/married. Not saying I'm thinking about it any time soon!! Just curious to what people's thoughts are!

I had it all planned out in my head when I was 20... engaged by 26, married by 28...kids by 30.
I'm 29 and very single...
wahhhhhh!!!:laugh:0 -
Ideally, late 20's early 30's.

Oddly enough, I think that statistically if a couple gets married when they are both quite young (18-21), they have a lower divorce rate than other demographics.
That being said, there is no ideal age. It is when you are ready.0 -
i wouldn't trust my pre-25 self with a remote control much less a husband.
i got married at 29. and now i'm getting divorced at 40. so yeah, don't listen to me.0 -
never but if you have to then wait till your 30's.0

I always dreamed I would have finished having kids by age 30. I started dating my husband at 20, married him @ 25, had our first child @27, and our twins @ 29. So, my plan 'worked out', but when I was pregnant the first time my husband was in grad school and I wouldn't want to do that again!! Then getting pregnant with the twins was a complete surprise (I wasn't ready for #2, or #2 and #3 really, because I was in good shape and finally happy with my body)... and here I am now!
There's no perfect age, for sure!0 -

Got married in my early 20s...getting divorced at 27...so yeah, dont listen to me either.
You seeing a trend in why 'never' has a good ring to it? no pun intended..0 -
apparently i not only dont know how to keep a marriage, i also don't know how to use the "edit" button here.0

This^ I've been married twice, failed at it. Take your time, never ever rush:)0 -
Marriage is fine institution that takes a lot of commitment. So get married when you are ready to be committed to an institution.0

Whenever you meet the right person0

Hello, I got married young but I wouldnt trade it for anything.. it honestly depends on the person & when they find the one.. I got engaged at 18 and got married at 20.0

Speaking from someone who started having children right before she turned 20 and married at 22 I would have to agree. Live a little then settle down!0 -
Whenever you find the right person and it feels right.
I was married at 21 and we will be celebrating 11 years of marriage this summer. We are best friends and are very happy. We do not have kids still though, so that may be a factor, lol!!
I have friends who were married at 24/25 and were divorced before they were 30, so it really depends on you as a person and if you find the right person.0
