Yes, I believe that is too young. You really need to focus on your education while you are at that age. Trust me, I'm 16 as well, and I know that without a good education, life is going to get exceptionally hard. Once you get married, college is going to be difficult, if not impossible. Get through college first, and then get married. By that time, you will be ready to get a job to support your family. Think it through, bro. |

i know it doesn't seem like it now but things change, people change a lot at this age. if i married the guy i was with when i was 16 -same guy when i was 18- well my life wouldn't be the greatest pretty miserable actually because we weren't as compatible as i thought we were. you need to think about a couple things. like are there sad or hurtful things in your relationship? how do you both handle it when you are fighting? any trust issues? you do still have a lot of growing up left to do. and that is okay. don't rush into this. you should wait. go to college and then after you graduate if things are still good then i would marry him. but give yourself the chance to grow up first. |

I am 38 and wish I could have been married when I was 18. If it feels right and you are both happy and your families are happy - Go for it. Who's to judge. Marriage is living life! |

Love is something that happens. I believe in love at first site, im glad your waiting 2 years before you actually get married because you'll learn alot about them and it could change your mind. Good Luck |

Things can change between now and then so just enjoy being young, life is going to be serious and big soon enough. If you do all adults things when you are a kid-(16) then what do you have to look forward to. I would set some 5 year goals that don't necessarily include getting married on the day you turn 18. |

Well, I think it's kind of still pretty Young. I mean, your still a Teenager. :). But, that's YOUR choice. I'd wait until I was 20-25. And I'd probally get engaged at either 19 or 20...maybe a little older then that. You should probally save that Love for your Girlfriend until you are achually a 'Adult'. But, it's your choice, so... |

i've already decided that in my future, i will change too much to peg myself to one person for the rest of my life, i know there's devorce and all that junk, but I don't want to have to go through a failed marrige, i don't think you do either |

Way too young. You should be getting to know people, exploring opportunities for your future career, getting a good education. If you tie yourself down now, you are spoiling your life, stunting your personal growth, limiting your options, and increasing your chances of divorce, unhappiness, low income, and living miserably for decades.
You cannot possibly be so desperate for someone to love you that you would cling to the first person who comes along and shut yourself off from some potentially wonderful people and experiences to come into your life. Marry at 18, and resent the limitations and confinement by 20.
Even if this is your "one and only," wouldn't you want to live a richer, fuller, more meaningful life by getting an education, working, traveling, experiencing things so you each have more to share, more to give? |

For most people it is to young. I know when I was 16 I though I knew it all life, love etc. Now I'm older I look back and know I didn't know as much as I thought. If you really love this person your engaged to, have a long engagement (4 years plus) This will give you both the chance to know you are making the right decision. Because after all marriage is meant to be for life. Good luck |

That's too young, IMO. Getting married that young will make you feel as if you missed your twenties, and going out and having fun will be that much harder when you're married because you'll always have someone else's feelings to consider.
So, unless you want to give up your autonomy and independence, I'd rethink the engagement if I were you. |

Trust me honey I ws 19 when I got married and if I could turn back time I would have stayed single! Those years are the best times of your life and you don't want to miss out on them...give it time think of your freedom lost. |

For some people it works. I actually had a friend that got married at 16. (no she wasnt pregnant or anything) They are still happily married today like 15 years later.
BUT.....and this is a big but. For most people getting married that young is a HUGE mistake.
The biggest thing is the sense of knowing who you are and what you want in life really doesnt set in until 25 - 30 years old. YOU CHANGE ALOT FROM 16 - 30. And that is not too good for a relationship.
You may end up realizing that you dont match anymore.
I would wait. I know it seems awesome now and so in love. Things change! They really do. Id tell you my story but its too long. I sounded just like you at that same age. Boy i fell for madly at 15. Still love 15 years later. But....not together and painful mess. Too young to handle such serious love. |

If its 18 when you get married no i really don't think so but when you get married young it don't last so if i was you i would wait in tell after college (if your going) but i would wait a little bit longer then 18. |

Boo!

WOAHHH way to young..you may want this now but tomorrow...you might regret it...theres a point in your life when you get tired of chasing people and trying to fix everything..and its not giving up..its realizing you can do better and you dont need certain people and the drama they bring... the hardest thing in life is knowing which bridges to cross and which ones to burn.. and im sure you need to burn this one..hope you make the rite decision...good luck.... :)... just wait until your atleast 21...because once your old enough to go out into bars and stuff...they start gettting jealous and the fights begin then you'll see every side of him..you need to know he'll stick through thick and thin...heres a story for you..my sister was 17 or 16 when she met this guy ..she loved him and moved in with him when she was..17? anyways they were planning on getting married but she got pregnant..then ..had a miscarriage.. and thats when things became more obvious that ..hes just not rite... anyways you know how it ended...she broke up with him because he was wayy too controlling and ended up stalking her ..following her around town and sitting outside our house... |

It's absolutely too young. You have no idea who you are yet. Not really. If you're still with this person when you're 18, then you should consider talking about marriage, but not now. |

kinda, but i would be hypocritical. I am 16, dating a 24 year old, and we are going to get married after I am old enough. It just depends on you, who YOU are, what you want in life, what goals you have set for yourself and if your fiancee will help you reach them. Honestly I think it's okay as long as you are a mature 16 year old, instead of a child in a young woman's body.
Good Luck.
Search yourself.
If you feel like being a wife/mother/whatever at 18/19 go for it.
You can last it'll just take work. |

Nope, if you are 16 and wait until you are at least 18 that is okay. If you aren't together between now and then then so be it you wont get married. You will be 18 and an adult. There is no reason why you couldn't get married. I was 16 when my husband and I got together. We got married when I was 22 so no I think you are just fine. |

Look around you. How many of the people you know that are happily married met when they were anywhere near as young as you?
I remember one couple I went to school with. Madly in love yet within 10 years their situation had changed.
Whilst others from the class were now settling down they were hiring lawyers and deciding who got to see the children and when.
Now look again at those folks you think are happily married. Ask them how old they were when they got together. There are lessons there for you. I do not say it is impossible but the chances of a happy marriage starting so young are almost nil
Talk to those couples - they will have much wisdom to offer and it might save you a lot of heartache |

I think it is, but you have two years to decide whether you really want to or not. :) |

yes. I think it is a bad idea because the brain isn't fully developed until at least 25 and so what you like now you may not like in 10 years. |

I got engaged on my 16th birthday and I got married 3 months before I turned 19. I didn't think so at the time, but now I truly believe we were WAY too young. We were married for three years and it ended when he left me for someone else. We had an eighteen month old daughter and 2 weeks after he left I found out I was pregnant with our second child. I know that this could have happened to anyone regardless of age, but the thing is he was not the same person I married. The person he was 3 years earlier would have never did that. The thing is I really wasn't the same person either. Right now it may seem like going from a teenager to your 20s won't be that much different, but it really is. You learn alot about yourself during that time and your opinions and your whole outlook on life totally changes. Neither of you will be the same person 5 years from now. I won't say that you are too young because everyone and every situation is different. Just make sure you really want to risk it rather than waiting a couple more years. You don't want to wake up one day and realize that you don't even know the person you married anymore!
Oh yeah...we had been together for 5 years before we got married in case you were curious. =)
Good luck! |

Wow! That's hella young! You shouldn't be getting married at that age! You should be studying for the SAT! I'm seventeen and I've never even kissed before! What are you thinking throwing your life away like that! You're going to regret tying the knot now, let alone already bucking on that old ball and chain! You're never going to make anything of yourself! How do you think your peers will feel? What about college?
Yes. That's too young. |

why do you want to get married so young? |

Yeah that's much too young. And I'll bet you call the wedding off, whether it's because you decide to get married later or you break up. Or because you're obviously having doubts because you're asking strangers their opinions... |
