Whats a good age to get married at?

When you find a girl you love

Mentally though when it should be easier is around 34

When you got a car and a place to lay your head that's not your moms crib.
 
35 when you have literally no dog left in you and all your finances etc. have matured.

im 25 and the dog in me has matured but still is there I figure by 35 it'll just be non existent lol

At least 30...even if you do find the right one early what's the rush?
 
I don't think there is a specific age you can consider to be the "right" age to get married. To me, it comes down to how financially stable we are, and if both of us are ready to make that step. Also, having a career, a job you can lean on.
 
Unless you have pissed your life away, by the time you are 35 you should:

-have finished school two times over (Bachelors or higher), if that was your goal in life

-be well into your job/career and making stable money. Not saying you should be a doctor but at least be an OG bus driver (example) by then with a retirement plan

-have your own NICE place. not saying own a 300k house by then but at least be living in/renting a nice crib, not some shack next to the EL stop

-have gotten all of your bar hopping/clubbing/THOT chasing out of your system. By this age you should be pulling "grown" women who have degrees and careers of their own and not girls interested in trinkets

-at this point you wife up said "grown" woman with her own life straight and you both build

I'm an apprentice electrician and electricians have the second highest divorce rate. It seems like at least 7 or 8 out of 10 married electricians I meet have been divorced at least once.
 
I married at 23. We lasted 3 years.

Life was fun and all but ultimately each of us changed so much in that time. The mid twenties is about building yourself. If you know what you want out of life and have the means to obtain what gives you happiness, then you are ready. You still need to find that person who is stable enough without you to support themselves, but yet together you become better.

Looking back for me... we depended on each other too much to the point where I was no longer myself.

I would say anytime after 25 depending on your level of self; control, awareness, understanding, and empowerment.


I'm 26 and realize that life's too short to not try for happiness. My 3 years of marriage brought me a profound view for the rest of my life. So I would say that really no age is wrong if it makes you a better person in the end be it a Divorce or a lifetime of marriage.

What made you decide to get married at that age? Did it just feel right at the time? Just being curious, 23 is pretty early to get married IMO, but like you said, whenever the couple feels ready, then I guess go for it. Hindsight is always 20/20 but knowing what you know now, would you have changed a few things before getting married?

Honestly,
I really did love her, as she loved me.
We had goals for our marriage our relationship.
Both of us were fresh out of school and we're going to create our careers and life together.

That was the problem for us. Our whole plan was about us. Nothing in either of our futures for the individual person.

We really enjoyed being married for the first two years, then we slowly drifted apart. Our individual lives drifted apart from the whole of the marriage.
Neither one of us was happy in our marriage in the end, but we were happy with who we each had become.

Divorce for us was easy. We each had respect for each other and filled an uncontested divorce.

We married young because we loved each other at a young age. We only divorced because we were happier apart than together.

Marriage really isn't about age. It's about an understanding of who you are, who your partner is, and how you help each other.

We loved in our marriage, but we never helped each other. Love is the easy part. It was the part a 23 year old understands.
By the time I was 26 I understand so more than just the love aspect of marriage.

Idk b, most of the time I don't mind being single. Other days I do sometimes wish I had somebody to work for.

I got my career and things basically set. I just ask myself, what's next? Like what the hell is the point of life? I eventually get bored of everything. I don't know how to explain it but I sometimes feel empty, sad and numb about life and think a family can fix that but I wouldn't really consider dating most chicks I come across everyday (most are thots).

Maybe I should get a dog.
 
A dog is a great way to fill a whole in a heart.
A wife/girlfriend, their job is not to fill the empty part of you, rather build the framework to make your current life better.
 
A bunchhh of people I finished undergrad with got married like a year after commencement. Personally I think you should settle down after you get all the yambs out of your system. Same for girls.
