My mom used to told me every thing about her early marriage with my father. They will always had this huge fight over little things. They're both in there early 20's when my mom got pregnant of me. My dad will stay out very late with his friends. And that made my mom very-very angry. She said that she felt miserable and being cheated of the time, the fun, and the life with friends around that had been missed. While my dad can do anything he wanted with his time. She thought life was unfair between a husband and wife. She used to complained with my dad's older sister about his attitude. And with few lines that my aunt said she was awakened by a reality. My aunt said, "When i woke up in this world he was already my brother and i do not have any choice. While you had your fair chance of choosing a husband and yet you choose him." That day mom understand the life she chooses with my father and changed her outlook of marriage.

well it may be the reason but if they really loved each other there wouldn't be fights. I think your father did not understand his responsibility. Life changes after marriage and this has to be accepted. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

We seldom see married couple having no fights. It's part of growing up and learning process. Because life is a constant challenge that will test our very last patience. These will make their marriage even stronger.

I doubt the early marriage is the reason why they quarrel a lot. I think they would have done that anyway since this has to do with their character. I think if they did marry to eachother later they would have start quarreling also, perhaps after a month already or 6 months or 1 year. I think they are just trying to blame something or someone, are looking for a reason. There are plenty of women who married on an early age or were even dumped pregnant and they managed. With or without a guy going out with his friends. BTw this is behaviour many men do. After marriage (no matter at what age) they continue their life with friends, a woman gives up hers in name of... or because of..

My parents are married for 17 years now and they get along too well. They had open communications and hardly fight. My mom said being young in a relationship is a struggle. Because the first early years of marriage falls into adjustment period.
