Is it wrong to get engaged at a young age (under 16) ???

Question

Im 15 and have been engaged for months and some people are sayin im to young and some people are sayin it was a good move so is it wrong or right !?

Answer 1

it's immature ... live your life... think about when your 25 do you really want to say you've been married for 10 yrs??? most people get married then

Answer 2

okay first off are you kidding why such the big rush i know your probley in love and all that but seriously are you ill or does she have cancer that is going to take her away from you in the next couple of years?

thats fine that you want to declare you love for each other but let me say this divorce is expensive. you dont want to be in debt before you even become an adult. if you two are a match made straight from heaven that you will be together forever but try growing older with each other before you commit to each other in marriage.

enjoy being free from responsibility and from all the c**p that comes along with being an adult.

Answer 3

I don't think you have to be engaged. Your still young. I think you should just date this person for now and get to know him/her better. I know these people who have been dating for 8 eight before they got engaged and she said that even thought they dated that long she was surprised at some of his habits. I think you should just spend more time thinking if you are sure you want to do this.

Answer 4

WRONG.

u want to get out of school and college before u do anything

u should call it off.

its not good.

Answer 5

15 is very young to be engaged.  Could it work out?   Sure.

However, most people won't understand your decision.  You are so young and inexperienced.  What's the rush?  You really should graduate at least high school and preferrably college before getting married.... it will give both of you a chance to mature.  Most people come out of college totally different people... they mature and really figure out who they are.  I do know of some couples who got married young and went through all that together... honestly, they are still together but they seem to make each other miserable.

Answer 6

well love does work in a lot of crazy ways, and its not impossible that this would work out, but im afraid that you are really young and chances of this lasting are slim to none.

i dont wanna be discouraging but the age you are about to hit, you have some important choices to start making and this will start to determine your future and that usually means that you are going in a different direction.

ultimately YOU must decide if its right, and if you have doubts, then its probably wrong

Answer 7

Truthfully, who cares?  It means nothing legally to be engauged especially if you are under 18.  Respect what your parents say about it, as well her parents, or vice versa.  Parents usually are correct, because we can see down the road farther, because we are able to look back down the road at where we've been, and our friends and loved ones have been.  Good luck no matter what!!!

Answer 8

Take it from an older person: live your life first. You are still a kid. There is so much time for you to do this! What the heck is your hurry?

Finish school. Go to college or a trade school. Get yourself independent. Learn to go out into the world as an adult and take care of yourself before hooking up w/another person.

At your age, getting engaged makes no sense at all and as a parent, I'm amazed that your own parents haven't told you all this already.
