on July 5, 2020 at 12:13 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 30
MOST PEOPLE WILL SAY THAT I AM TWO YOUNG WAY TWO YOUNG TO BE MARRIED & HONESTLY I THINK AGE IS JUST A NUMBER. PLUS U ONLY LIVE ONCE SO WHY NOT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ALL THAT WE CAN DREAM TO DO BEFORE SUMTHING HAPPENS TO ONE OF US.

    I think people can grow together or grow apart. I was a completely different person at 23 and my ex and I grew apart, but my cousin has been with her boyfriend for almost 9 years (since they were 19) and they are planning to get married on their 10 year anniversary next October. They have changed and grown a lot, but they did it together and it has made their bond stronger. Good luck to both of you.

    I’m 25 and my partner is 21... and we agree that age is just a number if both adults are mature, able to communicate/work on communicating through hardships, can work through decision-making as a couple, trust, and sincerely apologize.


    My fiancé’s mother has been asking when will the proposal finally happen (as well as giving advice for it).

    23 isn't all that young. Do what makes you happy. I've heard and seen others at 19 get married. My fiance is 23 and I'm 30. Our birthdays are 2 days apart coming up September so by our wedding, we'll be 24 and 31.

    I met and dated my dh at 16. He was 21. Here we are 23 years later, with 3 kids, renewing our vows soon. Every love story is different 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Your wedding is listed as being in 2032. Will you be 23 then or are you 23 now?

    My husband and I met at 19/21 and got married at 22/24. I don’t feel like we got married too young. 19 would’ve been too young, but I could’ve told you I was going to marry him even back then. Emotional maturity and comparability end the strength of your relationship is way more important than chronological age.

    Good point .. if you are 11, Yes! WAY to young to be talking getting married .. if 23 now(in 2020) then no you are not too young to get married or talk about it

    Living in a major city majority of my life, I believed wedding at 23 was young. Now living, in the country, most people are married by 23.

    If you feel you are ready, go for it.

    I was engaged at 21 and decided to wait until I finished college because of my parents, and I thank God I did.

    I think 23 is fine!... but it's really hard not to think you're younger with the spelling issues and all caps in your post that I desperately want to fix, lol.

    I think that age is fine. what's more important is your commitment to one another and honoring and respecting that at all times even when its hard to. when it seems easier to just walk away. my fiancé and i dated in high school and then again in college. at this point we have been together for over 15 years. we have each grown and changed in so many ways but what never faltered between us was our commitment to one another, communication and honesty. i honestly knew in high school that he was the one and he says he felt the same but we also knew we had a lot of growing up and living to do individually and together

    Age is just a number, but maturity matters. We started dating at 16 and 17 years old and we'll be married at 23 and 24 years old. The ages aren't as important as the maturity of the couple.

    I'm 23. I'm obviously getting married.
    What's more important than age is maturity, and a genuinely healthy relationship.

    I got married at 22. Its been 4 years already. I think it just depends where you are from because a lot of my friends were married before me.

    I'm getting married at 24, and I'm the first of my friends to get married. A lot of them think I'm getting married at a young age, but I'm used too it because it doesn't tend to bother me as much.

    I feel like this if tou and your FH are ready for marriage go for it. Ppl get married younger then you at times and are still together. For me it isnt about age whencit comes to the individual itself mindset and maturity level.
