as far as marriage is concern, in relation to age and being ready to get married, that depends upon the principle of each person, if your principle is just marry and never mind the responsibility brought by it, then so be it. if your principle is get married at early age, then so be it. we cannot force anyone. But if i were to ask, you are ready to get married if: 1. you know you can handle the task of parenting 2. you know you are financially stable 3. you know you are matured enough to face another kind of life 4. you know you can stand in your feet, that if problems arise, you do not need to go to your parents and sk their opinions if were to ask on age, the girl should atleast be 25 and the men should atleast 26.

There's no age limit when it comes to marraige. You know if its the right person when you can see your self getting old with that person and you know you can't live your life without him/her and deep down you'll really know that the right person comes along its more on a gut feeling.

I have been togheter with my boyfriend for 10 years now , we have a son togheter and have been living togheter for 6 years now. And we are not married. I dont think you have to rush to get married. one year is nothing. Make sure you know her very well first. We are thinking of getting married in a year or two , but we might have another child first. I dont see the rush to get married, too many people rush into marriges and it will end up in divorces.
