You are not too young to know who you want to marry. The question is will you feel the same way in 5 years or 10.You have a dozen tough questions right now and the other questions should come first . Read some of thease questions and remind your self that all of thease people thought at one time they were making the right descision. Sometimes in life things seem bad and they turn out to be good and sometimes things that seem good are bad. When you think about all thease things and the thousands of others at your age it is mind boggling. Start with what do I want to do with the rest of my life, Where do I get the education I will need.? Dont give me some crap about if we are in love or my husband will support the family. You simply dont know what life is going to throw at you. So you must use your head in all the decsions you make and dont waste time. Then after all of that you can think about marriage. So set some goals and you go Girl. Grampa B

The question is will you still be married 40 years from now. Not to say it is impossible, but very hard. I think that you should definitely wait. A person your age may change your mind a hundred times about what you want in a person before you turn 24. Those changes come from experience, maturity, and yes age. I say that you are too young.

You can know WHO you want to marry, but you two should take a few more years to really get to know each other and have fun without the pressures of marriage. Also, I would recommend living together first, you'll learn a lot about the person.

I knew who I wanted to marry when I was 17, I married him when I was 18.

Jan 3rd was our 6th wedding anniversary.

Lots of people will tell you that you are too young. You know what you want in life, you know if you are in love, when you turn 18 you can decide for yourself when you want to get married. Live your life for yourself, not how other people tell you to.

Truth is lots of young marriages our very successful, lots of them aren't. Lots of marriages between older people are very successful, lots of them aren't. Age is not the determining factor in the success of a marriage.

Do whats right for you.

it's your maturity level that should decide if you are too young to marry. And what i mean by maturity is by knowing that when you two fight, you got to know that it's not just a break up it's a work it out thing.

At 18, you only think you know who you want to marry...I live in a small town and here we know everybody...of all the teen marriages, alot are divorced by the time they are 35 or 40...
You need to experience more in life and maybe get married around 27....I mean to me that is a good age...preferably 30 so you can be mature enough to handle children...I had one child at 33 and still I had to be very patient. ..raising children is time consuming, expensive, and hard...


Avelyn
Sadly yes. Who you are now is not who you'll be as an adult. And you're not an adult yet.

Live on your own, pay rent and bills, work at a job for a while, experience the real world... then you'll be an adult and then you'll be ready to marry.


JB
Yes. In two years you won't be the same person you are know.

ask yourself that again.. im guessing you would be a senior at highschool right..? are you thinkg of goign to college go get a better education as well..? cause being married would be a big hassle. you should defitnitley wait till you knwo you found the one for sure.. cause you neever know.. you might regret that decision of getting married.


just bored
If you have to ask us this question then YES you are too young..saying your a month away of being 18 says it all..your age and your frame of mind is still too young..you still need more time to mature yourself .....

I got married at 17 (i was pregnant), and have been married now for almost 18 years. We have 4 great kids together, and I still adore my husband, but if I could have waited a few more years I think it would have been better. I never finished my college education because I put every one else before me.
I knew several other girls who married at 18, and none of their marriages lasted longer than 2 years. Marriage is very hard, and the only reason we are still married is because we were both too stubborn to give up during the harder years.
Put yourself first, finish your education, and then get engaged and married. Do it right. You will be so grateful you did someday. If you guys are meant to be, you will be together someday. Good luck.


conny
I'm sorry but yes. Why get married so young? Don't rush it. It's not easy being married. Marriage is hard work and it's not what it is cracked up to be.

i believe you are to young. wait another 5-7 years..does you BF have a good job, did you finished education and him? do you have place to live?..etc. in some time you,ll be more mature and you will see things differently. if you are meant to be together, it will last even without a wedding ring


Bentley
Lots of successful marriage have begun at your age.

I would be worried if anyone that I loved wanted to marry that young. It's often a heartbreaking disaster.

If it's meant to be, it will be... and waiting with a long engagement won't change that. Actually, I think a really LONG engagement is a good idea for anyone at any age contemplating marriage.
It's easy for a person to put their good foot forward for a year, but 3 or 4 years... you have definetly seen the real person....


radbagm3
Yes! You have not experienced life and what it has to offer. Your maturity level has to increase in order to make life altering changes. 10yrs from now, you will have a different opinion on this very same question. Your young, live life to the fullest!!!!

Depends on how mature u are, and depends if you already have someone.


anonymousgirl
NO...my parents knew at that age. The only advice I have is make sure you are financially stable before you actually get married. GOOD LUCK THOUGH! thats awesome

honestly i think you are. you are only 18 you still have a whole life to live. just think things go wrong now you have to file for divorce get lawyers and go through the long process. i think you need to wait a cupple more years to see if things are the same if so then go for it.


justme
I don't think you are too young to know who you want to marry but you may be too young to realize what a big step marriage is. Go to college. If you still want to marry whomever it is you want, do it when you get your degree. You need to figure out who you are first.

Yes - too young.


Rebel Angel
I don't think so no but i would take your time because age is just a number but

Be careful you are still young and just be sure of what you are doing cause marriage is not a game it's not a play house type deal

There are real emotions involved
