I don t think that exist right age to get married, people must to be mature and know very well what they want. When 2 people take this decission, they must to know very well what marriage mean, if they love each other, if they respect, and if they will be for all life toghether. I am divorced, and i know very well that a wrong step can distroy a life, and is very hard to remove this life again.

Age should not matter, it depends if the individuals are ready for marraige. I will be 44 next month and I am not married as of yet. if you feel you are ready that you should go for it. as for myself I do not think I will be getting marry at time too soon but I have jsut started a relatiohship with a great woman and she tunns 36 next month. so age should not matter at all jsut if the person is truly readay for the commmitment.

well i think the best age to marry is when both the partners are mature enough and understand that marriage is an institution and that it comes along with a lot of responsibility........so i feel when both the guy and the girl is well settled and have a stable job, that's the right time to get married........ Science says that it is better to have kids before the age of 30 as many complications have been reported in the child after the women crosses the age of 30 and conceives well this is not applicable to everyone, but yes to few it does......on an average the guy gets married by 26 or 27......it may vary according to the culture and caste........

I think as long as you are both ready, then there is nothing wrong with getting married. I think people shouldnt rush into it, as in getting married after just a few months of knowing each other. Five years sounds alright, as long as you are both ready. You are lucky if you have found real love! If it was me i think 5 years is plenty long enough if it was the right relationship for me. If i felt ready i would get married then! Good luck!
