My husbad and I got married after dating for one month. My family flipped on me because of it and all most stop talking to me. They love my husband now; and now they can see why i married him. He is the greatest man ever. I feel that if you feel that it is right then do it. Life is to short to keep waiting. Do you even know what you are waiting for...no...so go ahead and be with that person for the rest of your life if you love them and the both of you are on the same page. Life is to short so live it!!

Wow, one month? That's pretty good, you're lucky to come across someone so quickly! My boyfriend and I have been dating way longer than just one month, but we're both still in high school so marriage is not something I'm considering. At least not until I'm 25, have a job, finished school, etc. But it's great how it worked out for you. And you're right about life being short, it really is! My parents keep telling me how once you hit 30 time goes by by decades, not years.

Well,what i think just depends the couples.If you two just fall in love and even leave one minutes can let you found that's too long,you want to get together all the time,then not matter you're just met 1 days ,it's too late.And if you go over the finance or some other,you two even spend 2years to be girlfriend or boyfriend,then i think they must think about it's too early and fast to get married.

I think if two people are in love then they should feel free to get married when they know it is right. For me though it would take longer than a month to know someone is right for me. I have felt that in the past only to have my heart broken.

That is a great thing that you guys are still together and happy. I commend you I think I would have been really scared to try that. This actually happened to my sister she dated a guy for three months and then they got married that was over ten years ago. They have had some up and downs but they are still together and happy. Much success to you and your mate.

wow! you are one lucky girl. you found the perfect person for you even in just a month. for me, getting married is early when you just know the person and then suddenly married him, the so-called whirlwind romance. i think one should get married with a person if they have known each other for so long like 2 years or more, i am not saying that your marriage life will be perfect because i've heard a lot of people separating after they have dated for even 10 years and got married.

Fist,congratulations! But it's unbelievable for me to marry with a man after dating for only month!I'm admiring those who are together for some decades,just like my parents.My father is still unwilling to be bothered with trifles in life while my mother is willing to cover all the things.She never complain about it,because she loves my father and believe him,and try to construct a surrounding with confort for my father.She is always admiring him so that she can overlook his lack of dealing with trifles.Perhaps,there is no passion between them but the love,the responsibility and me. Maybe this kind of marrige is difficult to seek,even by the end of my life.But I will never quit.

I must say you are lucky person. Just after knowing a person for 1 month, you relied on him to live the life with. you are not at fault. What decision you took is proved to be good. Now it does not happen so good with all. so few peopel think of knowing the person for longer.

even when I saw the title I thaught this question is based on age but then I must say it varies from person to person if you seeing this person from many days still your are not comfortable then no use of this kind of relation,but a days spend with still meant a life to someone.so its about how ou feel

It depends on you each as individuals. If you feel your ready then go for it...I personally am not that trusting and would want to make sure the person is who the appear to be before getting married, but good for you everyone is different!

everyone want to get married early,the couple can be live together, can take care of each other.for example,i have alredly engaged myself with my girlfriend last year.if i want to get married,i need enough money,because my parents have a great age,they hope i can work hard ,earn more money,have a bright future.so now i try my best every day.my partner is waiting for me.

I personally think long dating depends.To know a person well doesn't necessarilly mean that you have to spend a long time with him,Actually even you have spent a long time with sb,maybe you still don't know much about him.So if you have decided that man is the one you are dreaming about,then just go ahead.It is about the right time.

Whenever it feels right for you it's good. But I'd probably never be able to marry someone after just a month of being with them even if I had that feeling I'd be with them forever. =]

"Life is too short so live it!"I like this sentence!I think you are brave though to hold your own life.I want to live as my wish but now still something in the way!My boyfriend and I have dating for about two years.My parents still know because I'm afraid of their against.They still think only when I get a perfect job that I can dating with boys,now is time for study.Tired!I am very appriciate your life.Live as your wish.Free!

Well, I look at it like this, when you know you know. There are people who know each other only a share time and get married, and are married for many yrs. And then there are people that wait and once married only last less than a yr. So you never know. The day I met my husband was the day god told me I was going to meet someone. We married 7 1/2 months later, and have been Married just over 10 yrs. now, and I would never trade him for the world.

I have never had a boy friend.Sometime,we really want to have fall in love with someone.But i do not want to marry too early ,i think that must bring us too much troubles.I want to enjoy the happiness from loving and be love by the guy i love.I think that 20 is early for marring age.

I think to get marry early is interesting without knowing much about the person because as you go along the relationship there is much to learn and explore, but not all marriages are successful as yours. I am about to get married but things are getting rocky lately so we are in a way changing our plans now. You are lucky to meet your perfect match. Best of luck!

how long have you and your husband been married? And did you and your husband know each other previously to dating? I dont think there is a right or wrong answer to this question--it really just depends on the people involved. Some people can date for years, getting to know one another and marry and then end up in divorce....some people can date briefly for a month or two and end up being married for 50 yrs..I personally would be a little more cautious though and wait a little longer--i dont think you can really get to know someone only after a month of knowing them. But to each their own. Regardless, i hope you and your husband have a happy marriage!!

i agree - when you know, you just know! i met my boyfriend in a club and never thought i would meet a decent person that way, but i did! And today we are celebrating our 2 year anniversary - all we need now is the money to get married, maybe when we are a little older:):)
