Well of course the "grown-up" thing to do would be to listen to your parents reasons for not getting married, at least then you can show them that you aren't rushing into anything. You can show them that you have thought things through.
Hopefully they will see how happy you are and give their blessing, if they don't or have very different views then maybe you just have to go ahead anyway.
Marriage is a whole lot easier with the support of parents, however, at the end of the day you are an adult and the decision can only be made by you and your boyfriend!
Good Luck :o) |

I'd listen to your parents. If this love is real, it will still be there in 5 to 10 years. We change a lot in our 20's and 30's. Trust me. The guy you love now, may very well be the guy you can't stand the sight of in 2 years.... I've fallen out of "love" in less than 2 weeks before....I'm just sayin.... |

Just wait it out. It won't hurt anything to wait a couple more years! |

you shouldn't get married. are you finacially secure? are you home owners? do you have careers? this is way more important than marrige |

You are adults. You are too old to let your parents make your decisions for you. It is your life, not theirs. |

Me and my fiancée have been engaged for eight months and neither of our families are particularly happy about it. We're getting married on Saturday regardless if they turn up and support us or not. We decided to do what was best for us as we both love each other and have a commitment together especially with our daughter by our side. As long as it's what you want to do, don't let anyone stand in the way of your happiness. They'll be the ones missing out on your big day!
PS. We're 20 and 21. |

At your age, your parents don't have to agree. But, you need to take into consideration their feelings as to why they disagree. |

if your parents have valid reasons for their objections then you might want to listen to them. i would wait to get married. i love the person i'm with right now, but god knows what will happen in the next few years. i might change, he might change, we may not love each other anymore. its always a possibility. as of now i'm committed to him a hundred percent, so what do i need marriage for? |

Hell, do what feels best to you. The parents have done it and got the t shirt already.. Go for it. They have their lives and now its time for yours. |

Well if you are asking this question here maybe you should listen to your parents. At 21 and 24 you both should already know what to do, and most important both of you should be living in your own home together. |

Well you are 21, you are an adult so you do not need their permission! So just Get married and invite your parents let them know you would like them to be there but that it is your life and you are going to make your own decisions and if it turns out to be a mistake at least it will have been your mistake GOOD LUCK |

If you feel that you're mature enough to be married, perhaps talking to your parents about your long-term plans could help. If you demonstrate that you are a mature adult, they may finally see you in that light. |

if your planing on living with mom and dad ,, i agree with mom and dad,,if not than its time you start your own life's and make your own mistakes |

I wish I knew your moms reasons why. In the end it is your decision not your moms but....As a mom myself, if my daughter was making a big mistake i would certainly be against it. Share how your mom feels with your closest friends to see if your mom has reason to disagree. If so well think long and hard because could cost you. If they think your mom is just being difficult then get married but it may cost you and your moms relationship to suffer. Good luck dear! Just make a good decision whatever you do |

You are both adults and can choose who you want to marry. If you and your bf are not paying for your own wedding and your parents are footing the bill - then they may have a little to say about the matter.
Why do your parents not want you guys to marry? |
|
?
 |
if you have to ask total strangers on yahoo - you are either not 21 and 24 but 11 and 14, or you are not ready to make decisions
DO NOT GET MARRIED - not because of parents' but because you are not mature enough
so long as you need other people's opinions, you are not ready for marriage |

Your parents probably don't agree because if you aren't grown up enough to type that sentence correctly, how can you possibly be married? |

A marriage consists of 2 people and not 4.
They may be just looking out for you. If you feel strongly about marrying your boyfriend, explain it to your parents. |

Technically you're old enough to get married regardless of what your parents say, so if you want to get married and you don't care what they say, then go ahead. |

You're old enough to decide what you want.
Having said that, though, is there a good reason your parents are not for this? If so, please heed the red flags and don't get married. |

they probably don't know your boyfriend that good yet. Have more dinners with your parents and your boyfriend. Make them realize that he is a good person and that he would take care of you. But also remember that it is a free country and if you really like this guy and think he would be really go0od for you then I say that you should just dd it because love is one thing and an obligation to not be married is another so which one would you pick. But before you go ahead and get married just cause. Try to let him get to know your parents better. Hope I helped! |

If you want to get "marrid" and stay living with your parents... I'd say you were crazy.
You need to move out first. Become responsible for yourself before you possibly become responsible for someone else as well. |

Well it's your life, but it does get annoying if your parents and our boyfriend don't see eye to eye. Why not just stay engaged for a little while more, and plan things out carefully. Who knows, maybe when your parents see that you are serious and that the two of you aren't just kidding around with the idea, they'll approve. |
