How old were you when you got married? Does age matters in settling down?

I think that for some people it is very important they finish collage and have a career before getting married. Other people I think can marry young, without having accomplished all this and it is best for them. I think it really depends on the individuial person and how they see thier life, and when opportunity comes thier way. I think if someone who wants to accomplish all those things, jumps into marriage and family before they have succeeded they could become resentful. In the end I think it's best to do what feels right for you and not worry what other people think of your decisions, just be confident in your own choices!

I got married when I was 19 and that was a big mistake. I won't say that age was the ultimate factor but it had something to do with it.

I was 25 too and married happily for 10 yrs going strong to me there is no specific age someone should marry I actually wanted to be rich and successful first, before marrying anybody so by that plan I would be 40 and single but I met him and I dropped that plan I realized that I can still be successful even if I am married not all men are supportive to their wives' plan for the future fortunately my husband is, I suppose it would be different if he isn't

it was just after my 26th birthday when i got married (still am married after 23 years too) and i think its wise to wait til you are a little older to get married, so yes, i agree with you there.

i got married when i was 23 going 24. 25 is just right. though age for me is not really the measure for anybody to get married. it must be emotional, physical, and financial stability.

I got married at the age of 27 and my husband was 32 then. We had a long engagement I was 19 years old when our relationship started. We are matured enough to enter a marriage life. If you ask if age matters in settling down still depends on the partners. I had a friend married at the age of 18 after 25 years their marriage grows stronger.

i was 18 and fresh out of high school. to be honest, i did it because i wanted to get away from home and he was my way out. we recently divorced but we have been separated for over 4 years. i think age is significant when marrying someone. you dont want to marry to young because you find things out about your mate that you wish you would of waited to see if they were worth marrying or not.

oh....i am looking forward to get married soon. hehehe... i plan to marry as early as 25, too. IF i am financially stable. i think that age is just right for marriage. my mom married my dad when she was 19 because she was forced to marry. hahaha

I was married by my Catholic Church at age 15 to a man 10 years my elder. Although I was so ready and upheld a respectable home unfortunately I gained a child. I would have loved for it to have worked out but unfortunately he had other plans. Anyways, here I am years later finally divorced raised two wonderful and respectful children by myself and am living with my boyfriend now for 4 1/2 years and we are very much in love, sometimes I suppose I was suppose to go through this before I met him. Weird how life is sometimes.

Yes I think so too. My friends and I have a similar idea of the perfect age to get married, at 25... well that was when we were younger. But I guess age doesn't really matter. Now that were in our late 20s I find my other friends not yet ready to get married. I think when it is time, it will come. And you will know if you are ready to take the plunge. As u mentioned, even if the opportunity knocks early, if you're not ready yet, it just won't happen. As for me, I discovered early on the person that I want to spend the rest of my life. I married at 21, just right after college. I am still happily married now and I believed it to be the best thing that happened to me.
