People have different perceptions when it comes to the age to get married. I got married at the age of 25. How about you, what age is the right age for you to get married?

I got married at age 23, for me it was perfect since I was prepared to marry. The age to get marry doesn't depent only on a decision, depends on when you meet the perfect partner, and when you are ready you are ready. Age dosen't matter, it matters only if you want to have children.

Yes I agree with you. When you are ready then you are ready. Marriage will just come along in our way any time.

I dont really think there is a certain age. Im 19 and in the process of planning a wedding. We were going to wait till we were older but my finace just joined the Military so nothing is promised to us. Alot of people say that we are way to young but we have been togehter for 8 years now. When the time is right you will know.

You've been with your fiance since you were 11? wow. That must be true love. Most people don't marry their childhood sweethearts. You are lucky that you found each other and stayed together all that time. Most guys don't want to keep one girlfriend forever. They want to run around and dip their wick into every pool they find.

I think 22 and up as long as you are ready to get married.

I don't think it is a matter of age as much as a matter of maturity. Some are ready at a much younger age than others and then some are never ready! LOL My cousin got married when she was 17 years old. Her family about flipped a switch! LOL But she has done very well for herself. I think it just depends on the person and how capable they are of making a mature decision.

Yes there are people who got matured earlier and knows how to handle life very well. but there are also people who don't get matured even they are already old. Lol!

When we get married we will both be 25 and I think that it's the perfect age - for us. My sister was married when she was 18, and while I think that sounds insane it was right for them. So I guess that everyone is definitely different. I think that on average the best age would be between 23 and 26, you're old enough to have had your own experiences but still young enough to get a nice head start before having a family.

At the age of 18 to get married is still young, By that time maybe your sister was still a student. well that was here choice. You Being as her sister you can help her by giving some advice.

For me, I'm 16, so thats off in the distant future yet :P I think somewhere between 22 and 28 would be a good age to get married, Not too fast but not waiting till age fourty either, but if waiting till age fourty is how long it takes to fing the right guy, I'll wait.

To Wait is also a good thing, but there are people who can't wait so they just get married to a person that don't know well and end up with regrets.

I think the right age is after you finish your education and are capable of supporting yourself. That might be 18 for some people or 25 for others or even older for those who want to live little and have some fun or see the world. . I think every Western girl should live on their own or with other girls for a while just so they know that they can do it.

I just got married last oct.so as of now i am still 22 years old.I guess it doesn't really matter if what age you are going to get married.The important thing is that,if the man u will marry is God's will or if you both are prepared for the responsibility being a married person.Many say its not easy to enter in marriage coz esp.this time,there are many cases of divorce or annulment.You get married if he/she is the right person in the right place and in the right time.There is no need to hurry in marriage.

I am 20 years old now, and I'm in a 3 year relationship. I think 25-30 is the year people should get married. Right now I'm just waiting to be asked. = )

When am young, i want married when my age 25 but my target always miss. Now my age is 36 and am still single. Why i think age 25 is a good for married? cos i think if am married in young age and have baby in young age too, i still have more energy to take care my kids and my family, watching them growup etc. so when they going to university am not to old to going holiday study, working or use my quality time with my hubby like second honey moon. And still have time too see and watch my grandson/granddaughter born and playing with we grandson/granddaughter.
