Do you think 19 is too young to get married?

Question

Do you think 19 is too young to get married even if the guy is nice, good, and loves the girl so much etc?

Answer 1

i thought i was in love. i thought i was ready. but i wasn't. my husband and i were married at 18 & 19 years old, and it's been 9 months and we're already talkin about divorce...but if you're in love and ready, then why don't you live together first and get married in a few years? if you're as in love as you say you are, nothing will have changed.

Answer 2

Marriage is a SPECIAL RELATIONSHIP that needs excellent communication. Communication is key, and age doesn't matter.

However if he loves the women, it doesn't sound like he is ready for only 1.

But if you mean he loves the girl (1) who he wants to marry, doesn't mean the communication will be there.

relationships take a lot of work, and things neither should ever do:

lie

cheat

run out of the house and leave because of stress or anger

hit or be threatening,

call bad names,

or be little

and NO OPPOSITE s*x FRIENDS

then the possibility of having a healthy relationship and lasting longer is a good bet

Answer 3

Generally speaking...yes.

But each situation is different.  

If you and your partner have good communication, don't play games, are flexible to deal with changes that happen when you grow older and are willing to compromise then I say go for it.

Answer 4

if that is what you feel in your heart is right then you go for it  

Answer 5

Yes!!!!!!!!  It will be one of the biggest mistakes of your life.  Don't want to take my word for it?  Print this page out, fold it up and put it in a safe place.  Ten years from now, take it out and read it.  I promise you you will agree.

Of course if you take into consideration that most marriages end in divorce anyway, you might at well get the first one over with.  At least you will still be young as long as you don't drag it out to long.  lol

Answer 6

yes

if you want a 85% chance of divorce inside of 3 years

at 19 neither fo you have set life goals.. have you?

neither of you have a college degree...

neither one of you have lived life...

so trust me when i say it wayyyy tooo young to marry

but then you are thinking on emotion and not logic

marry at will if you must... just realize your odds are not in your favor

Answer 7

Not at all me and my husband have been together since i was 17 and he was 20.And we have been happy for most of those years i think if you have found the right person for you then age should matter little.Except of course if your talking about lets say a 14 yr old and someone in their 30"s but you know where I'm going with this.good luck

Answer 8

I got married at 19. Six weeks later I knew it was a big mistake.

Both my husband who was 21 and I were way too immature to be married and basically had nothing in common. We were divorced in

two years.

Answer 9

Yes...marriage is a commitment you have to be mentally, emotionally and mentally prepared for nowadays.  It isn't easy...I would think long and hard about it before you dive into it.  Some people are in love with the wedding concept and they don't think about all the things that comes along with it...

Answer 10

Every person on this planet is different.  One girl will get married at 19 and be happy ever after - so will somebody who is 30 when she marries.  Another will marry at the same age and be divorced in 6 months.  Nobody can tell you if 19 is too young, because they do not know you.  You can only know yourself.  To be married and take the responsibility of a couple and probably children by age 20, you have to be mature.

I didn't get married until I was 29, because I wanted to travel and see the world, which I did.  Even then 12 years later I got divorced.  It is what you, as a couple, will make of the relationship.  If there is communication, understanding, acceptance, honesty and love, you have a very good chance of making it.

Answer 11

yupp. u need to live life from every corner before u acknowledge hes wat uve been looking for.

Answer 12

I got married young and now me and my husband are constantly fighting, at times we do regret getting married. If you both love each other then you should wait, once you're older and are more mature.

Answer 13

Hey there,

It really does depend on who you are and what your level of maturity is. When I was 19 I had already run a business (successfully) for 3 years, I had graduated high school by the time I was 15, I was putting myself through college, and >...... I was not in a relationship. School, my education, and my business was at the time more important. But h**l don't listen to me... It still is. (My businesses).

The thing that a lot of people neglect to realize is that some people really are mature enough to get married at that age. Sure some people are not but its worth asking yourself. Marriage is a huge commitment. Its one that should not be taken lightly. A 19 person should not get married just because they are infatuated and in puppy love with the other person. Sometimes it is very hard to tell the difference and thats where it all goes wrong.

Then think about school. Are you throwing that away or are you both going to go to school? Sometimes in some cases people don't go to college. Is that the end of the world? No. But in 5 years are you going to be more attracted to those men out there that have high class jobs, slicked back hair, and don't make their wives clean their trailer while they are away at.. where ever?

Then you have folks like my friend. 57 years old, she got married when she was 17. She is still married to her husband, they have beautiful children, and grandchildren. They live a nice life, and I really doubt they will ever get a divorce.

Every couple has their problems no matter how young or old they are. You just have to ask yourself if you would really want to be tied down at the age of 19 and be ready for that lifelong commitment to your husband. You have to look into your heart and really realize what is best for you.

Best Wishes!
