I met my husband when we were 28, but we didn't marry until we were 40. Alot of stuff happened in between, we lived in different cities, broke up for a while, etc. If those things would not have happened we might have married sooner, but we didn't. I think that we ended up for us, marrying at exactly the right time.
We did forfeit having children because of marrying late, but we have always had dogs and they bring us alot of joy.
It all depends on you and who you meet and what you want from life.
You're young. Enjoy dating, have fun! When the time is right for you to meet the "one" it will happen. |

I was 17 - he died after ten years of marriage, looking back I was far too young - but in those days the 1950's your were on the shelf if you were not married or engaged before you were twenty.
I met and married my second husband when I was 29, we have been married 39 years now, and it has been a marriage made in heaven, we both dread the day when death parts us.
Far far different today in 2009, you have years ahead of you - go out there and enjoy your freedom |

I met my fiance at 18... I'll be exactly a week short of my 28th birthday when we get married in April. Over the past 10 years we've had lots of friends who were couples, but very few of them have stayed together in the long term. Most have ended up marrying someone completely different... and out of the 6 couples I know that did marry in their early 20's only 1 is still together. The rest grew apart as they grew up.
Don't fret - you're certainly not an old maid at 20! |

I was 18 when I married my 1st husband. We divorced after 20 years. 10 were good and 10 years were crappy.I met and married the love of my life at age 43. That was almost 15 years ago. Don't panic. Men can smell desperation a mile away. My daughter got married at 30, my son at 32. You have a lot of years of youth left, enjoy them. |

At 20!?! Please! You gotta hang with some different folks. Wait five years and see where their marriages are.
I was 28 when we met and she was 25. We got married a year later and I felt really good to have squeezed it in b/4 I hit 30!
Still married at 40 and it was the right time. I wasn't, um, marriage material b/4 that! |

O sweetie, trust me! It is so better that you are single or in a non serious relationship right now because you have the opportunity to do whatever you want and have fun and be careless and free!! So no worries about your friend being married or engaged. To be perfectly honest, I know so many couples who were engaged or married at 20/21 and they HATE they're spouses. It doesn't happen all the time, but honestly, you change so much between your early twenties and your mid twenties that you don't' want to be tied down to early... And I am speaking from experience. I've been with my boyfriend for over 6 and a half years and we are not engaged or married, obviously, but we still have so much more freedom then a lot of couples we know. We're not crazy or have an open relationship but we don't' feel the pressure to get married to be happy. We do want to eventually and hopefully I'd like to get married in the next few years, but I'm already 24, so I know who I am already and know what I want.
ANyways, honestly, just be happy that you're carefree and young. YOu have your whole life to be old, so enjoy being young while you can! |

18 the first time, married at 19. Divorced 24 yrs later because we grew completely apart.
43 when I met my new hubbyy...this one's a KEEPER!
Imagine how glad you will be when all these too-young marriages start to fall apart. Wait until at least 25, you have a lot of change coming in your personality yet. |

I met my husband towards my late 20's. First and only time I got married. It was right for me. Before that, I had no interest or intention in getting married. I was having way too much fun being single !! Then I met him, and he changed my mind !! |

I was fifteen, and I was probably too young, but I didn't care, and I still don't. |

I was 29 and only three days from my 30th birthday. We had our first date on my 30th birthday. I absolutely got married at the right time and to the right man...we married 11 months after we met and three years later we couldn't be happier. |

I got married at 18 and i felt like an idiot for doing it. Yea we had been dating since i was 15 but he was all wrong for me and getting married to him just made it more obvious i didn't want to be with him anymore |

You are YOUNG! Don't rush to get married.
I was almost 30 when I met my (now ex-) husband. |

I met my husband when I was 18 and we dated / lived together 7 years before becoming engaged and we now have been together for 13 years. I love my husband very much and he helped he steer my life in the right direction. After I graduated HS I went on a partying streak and moved out of my mom's house and it went downhill from there and he got me back on track. |

I was 22 when I met her. Married at 27. I don't think I was too young. I have never once felt like I wasn't ready or that I missed out on anything. I am very lucky. |

32.
Out of 10 friends that got married in their 20's only 2 are still married the rest are divorced with kids most living back home with mom and dad. That's a real nightmare.
Enjoy your 20's go out, have fun, as it goes by quick. |

First time 17, married him at 24 and divorced him at 36. I was WAAAAAY too young!
Second time 38, married him at 40, am still very happily married.
I can't really say my first marriage was a complete mistake as if I hadn't done what I did I never would have met my current husband and been so blissfully happy. |

I'm 20 too but I don't feel the pressure at all. It will happen when it does :) don't you worry. And probably more than half of the 'serious' relationships held by people our age the moment will dissolve sometime soon.. |

I was 23 when I met him. We dated for a couple month but it wasn't until I was 28 when we started dating again. I was 30 when I was married and I wouldn't give up my single years for anything! |

i was 16, and together for 6 yrs before we got married.
but it didn't work out. i don't think age has anything to do with it, you've gotta be happy and ready to commit. don't worry about being single, loads of people are single at any age, it doesn't really matter. the right one will come along when you least expect it, just have fun finding him! |
