Marriage

[levettepough]

Do you think to people that has not reach the age of 25 yet are ready for marriage?

People don't have to be age 25 to get married but they should not rush into it.

I think people should take their times and not rush into marriage, because marriage is hard work and you really have to work at it and not be selfish and be more giving and treat him the way you want to be treated.  I have been married for 37 years and will be 38 this September and we love each other, but we both grew together and we'll had some hard times, but through it all we made it and our marriage is stronger than ever, just remember to talk to one another about everything and put God first and everything will be ok.

Depends on the maturity level, my parents got married when they were both 21, they've been together since they were 16 and are still married and are now 63 yrs old. Myself when I was 25 I was ready to get married but the guy I was with at the time wasn't, I am now 29 and still not married which is fine because I am with a wonderful man and if it's meant to be will get married at some point.

I also agree with your other responder who says that age doesn't really come into it. Someone can be ready at 18 and someone else might not be ready until 40! Someone else might never be ready! It certainly is a lot of hard work, as is having children and if you're not ready, you're already at a disadvantage. Life is hard enough with all the curve *bleep* it throws at you and you need someone to rely on, someone you can trust and share your ups and downs with. It's not easy when you disagree on fundamental issues such as how to spend/save your money or how to discipline your children. You are two people that no doubt have different upbringings. But you need to remember the one thing that is most important - you are a union that, in spite of your differences, have chosen to live out your lives as one. Everyone needs to make sacrifices and remember, life is not all about us!

Marriage is a bad word. It is also bad for your health. I know, I had that disease. I don't suggest anyone getting married young. It usually never works out.

To me it depends on how mature they are. Some people are forced to mature a lot sooner then others and could be ready for the responsibility right out of high school.

I know what you mean. I grew up with seven siblings and had to grow up pretty fast to take care of them. I got married couple years after high school.

[ksp7653]

That depends on both parties. (families included)

[alaskakaren]

Depends on the individual.  I'm 46 and still not ready   but doesn't mean someone else isnt ready in their 20s.  Hope everyone has a great weekend.

I don't plan on getting married anytime soon and I don't really like it when people get married too young (ex 18) but i think it depends on the couple. I know people who got married at 18 (now age 68 and 69) and are still together - and have never cheated to my knowledge. Then there are those I know who got married at 27 and divorced the next year.
