I would say never there is a right age.Well legal ages are 18 and above to me, but I say that if you are 18 or 99 ,if you find a love, and want to make that special commitment ,go for it. But it had best be the real thing, love and all,because divorce is way too expensive to go through, and heartbreaking as well.I have been married 3 times.And each marriage was terrible.My second wasn't too bad but the why we divorced was.And we live together now and at times we love each other and other times we hate each other.But we are miserible without each other.So marriage is something not to step into lightly.

That is very good response and I understand what you are trying to say.I should have added 'for the first time' I think.In that case what will be your reply.

I have read this before that an ideal age for marriage for a woman is 25 and 27 for a man, but for me as long as the couple are both ready to face the new challenges in their life as husband's and wives and of course ready to have a family with stable job that they think they can support their needs and the needs of their children to be well they can marriedy anytime they want even if they are both at the age of 22 or up.

I dont think that anyone could answer this properly. There is no right age..Everyone is different. And their circumstances are different..I suppose it is when both parties feel that it is the right time..

I wanted to know the opinion of the mylotters the age of mental and physical maturity and a sense of responsibility to lead a married life.

In india, the right age for getting married is suggested as 21. But i think a lady can get married when she is 24 or 25. So that she could have settled for some years after job and earnings. Too early marriages like 18 and 19 are worse. That happens in the northern part of the country but very annoying.

It is not the right age it is the legal age.Right age is what we decide when we reach 21.As you say child marriage is prevalent in North India very much thanks to the politicians who has succeeded in keeping the mass illiterate and voting machines.Mera Bharat Mahan!
