What do you think about best time for marriage, is it about 25 or earlier or later? Or when you finish university and find a good job? Or it is maybe that there is no proper time for that, you just do it when you and the right person are ready for it. I am 22 and I am engaged, I sometimes think that I am still young to start marriage and then a family but my fiance who is at same age does not think like that. It seems to her that the time is right for about an year. I did not even met her father yet, I am running from that for two or three months since we engaged. I know I must decide can I do it, am I ready or not, even if I maybe lose her from my life. I think that marriage is not that simple as it seems to be for someone. I would like to see some comments about it from people experienced in life and marriage. Be honest, write what you would do and what you think about all that.

Actually, there is no particular age in getting married. There are people who marry at late age but did not become successful. There are also people who marry at very young age, like 16 or 18, but become happy and successful.
For me , the right time to get married is when you are already ready mentally, emotionally, spiritually and more importantly financially. That means, you are ready to accept your responsibilities as father or head of the family. You accept with all your heart that you will be the one to provide for the needs of your wife and children. Of course, there is your wife to assist you also in taking care of other financial needs because she will be the one in - charge with budgeting.
But first I'd like to ask you. Is she the woman that you really want to marry and become your partner for life?

@chris2050 .. I agree with you. But there are cases also that religious beliefs could be talked or agreed upon by both parties if they are on different religious sect. It could be just a give and take relationship. If the partners really love each other, they will understand each one's beliefs.
About the girl that you really like, I think she has a deep reason why she behaves like that. Did you try to ask her already?

@Amel94 The decision is all yours. But always remember that, in every decision we make, there are also consequences. So be very careful in making decisions.
Analyze yourself first. If you think that you are not yet ready, then maybe you can honestly tell the girl about it.

There is no particular age when you get married, as long as you are matured enough, mentally, emotional, financially and spiritually then you can get married and most of all, you love each other because in marriage, there is no turning back or if you have some troubles with your wife, you send back her to her family, no you can't, so better knew first yourself and your fiancee if your are both matured.
