Why do people get marry too soon? Even when they know that they are not ready too get marry. I know that I been marry for 11yrs and still married. and some people get married one day and seperate the next or cheat on their spouses.

I think it's because they are influence with their emotions too much that they don't know what is right or wrong anymore and just do it and think of the problem in the future just like my sister's situation,they marry and they did not plan it,now she is regreting about it. I am not sure why but yes I think it's because of the emotions and not really using their mind and simply following their hearts.

Some poeple think they have to get married to proove something to their families. Others think they are in "love" when in actual fact it is lust or just the excitement. Others want to rebel against their families views. Then again, other people get married quickly after getting together and stay together, I had been with my husband just 7 months when we got married: we have been married for almost 2 years now and have a baby on the way, we have a good marriage, we don't really argue much, not properly argue anyway just silly little things. And we are both very happy together. I dont think it is a fact of "time" before you get married, but knowing you really are in love, not wanting to be without them. If you imagine the future without them, how does it make you feel...if you feel lost then maybe that is proof you should be together, but i think all relationships are different.

I have also noticed alot of people get married as soon as they have met a person, but i have also known people out there who have been together for ten years or more and have never been married and neither do they want to.I think people have to be with each other for at least two years aswell as live with that person to know what they are really like, then maybe consider getting married.I mean what is the hurry.

Its because of culture and sometimes the ignorance and insecuredness feelings of parents and others.

True good maturity is required to take up a married life.

It does seem like people get married too soon and I am not sure why. It seems like people rush into marriage because they want to please the other person perhaps. Also, I know a lot of people who have boyfriends in the military and they aren't allowed to live on base if they are not married. People who have kids believe it is right to get married for the sake of the children. I live in Miami and I know some people who marry illegal immigrants for money. It doesn't seem like marriage is something special as it once use to be and it is, is a piece of paper.

Some are impatient. They think they have found the right partners and want to start with a family. This often happens in Eastern communities. Western couples really do not want early marriages. They like to live in to know the other partner better including sleeping with him. There are pros and cons.

Well, I got married when I was 20 and my husband was 22. I know now that we were far too young, but at the time I thought it was a good decision. We only lasted a year before splitting up. For me, I left home in Oct 1988 to go to University. It was my first time living away from my parents and I think I found it very frightening. I met my husband in Nov 88, we got engaged in Dec 88 and began living together in Jan 89 then got married in Novv 89. It was far too fast and we were very young. I think I wanted a "HOME" and felt I could best do that by getting married and of course, I thought we were in love too.
