Most people say they don't want to get married until their thirties, but some people get married when their 18. Putting aside the fact that you can't choose a husband at the Supermarket, when do you think someone should "settle down"? Do some of you wish you had settled down later in life?
Answers:
1. That's too much of an individual preference for me to comment. Settle down when you're physically and mentally mature enough and want to settle down.
2. As long as there is no one in the picture yet, wait till after college, that gives you time to settle some things in your life and settle who you are before you assess a future mate.
3. im 23 with 3 kids same dad but i definetly wish i would have waited bc its so much iwanna do. i could have waited till 30-35. but im blessed anyway! people say stuff like dont u think ur too young and im like whats the age of 'too young'. im grown!? duh so screw those people if u think ur ready then ur ready if not then wait awhile! i was an adult when i had my kids also theyre all under 4!
4. It depends on the person. Some people mature quicker than others. I think most of us know when we are ready, regardless of if we have met the person. It is not something that can be defined, because we are all ready at different times.
5. I settled down when I was 30 and I have no regrets about it, now I did not get married until I was 34. But that did not mean I was out on market. For me and probably many others you will know when the time is right.
Good Luck
6. I stared a family young..
Pros.. I very active with me kids and now that they are a little older I am still young enough to enjoy life.
Cons... Wish I was a bit more established and knew myself better as a women not as a young pie-eyed girl.I would have made some different chooses.
7. I got married at 22 and have never regretted doing so early. I had 4 kids by the time I was 28 and I do wish I had given sometime to just being married and maybe spaced the kids out a little bit. It would have been nice to spend sometime with just my hubby before the kids came along. That being said I am now 47 and my youngest will leave for college next year. I can tell already that my husband and I are going to enjoy being 'newlyweds' again! I think the right age is when you find the right person, not how old you are!
8. i got married and had kids when i was 19 and i loved it. there were so many things that we experienced together for the first time and it seemed to bring us closer together. i am 23 now so we are still experiencing a lot of "first". i never thought i would marry so young but when you feel it you just know. but marrying young is not for everyone. my mans best friend got married a few months before us and he is working on his divorce as we speak. there is no right answer of when you should marry, i guess its a risk you take at any time of your life.
9. I think there are many marriages that happen at a young age and last forever. However, I am betting that most fail. If you ask those who got married at a very young age if they wish they would of waited, I bet most of them will say they should of waited. True love will wait.
10. "Marrige is a covered dish" u may not know what lies beneath it u have to uncover it . & as far as enjoyment is concerened u can enjoy with the kids & if you don't think this way then u can't enjoy even u get them after 5-10 years of being alone couple. So don't think this way go ahead as soon as possible & enjoy every way of married life when u r young & can manage resources too.
11. When you are ready 100% to handle your responsibility as a parent to your future family and kids and committed to your own obligations and ready to your rules to your husband that's the best time to get married.
Age is not so important but the maturity about yourself to get married because this is life commitment.
You need to get slow down in meeting and selecting the best guy for your lifetime partner whose attitudes and characters comensurate to your lifestyles and who can respect and understand who are.
