That is a powerful question....Do you ever have that gut feeling about something? There is this feeling that I get when I know something is right or wrong. I dated a guy and I really wanted to marry him. Nothing felt bad about it, but I never really felt good about it. Luckily I met my husband and it was a wonderful feeling from the start. Don't get stuck on the idea of marriage. I have a lot of friends that did and they are either divorced, in a horrible relationship, or have a lot of regrets. Take as much time as you need to truly feel good about the decision. If you are in a relationship look at how your partner treats you. Is it what you want in a marriage? If they want to get married, don't be rushed. If they love you they'll wait for you to be ready for the commitment. Honestly if you are asking yourself that question you probably aren't ready yet. Good luck- ~jheaps2

well,when you're both mature in all aspects and when you could really say and feel that you want to spend the rest of your life with your partner....

I think you'll know when you're ready to get married when you feel you can take care of the other person, are familiar housework and you're prepared for everything!!

According to me...i think time will eventually bring about the urge to get married as you get older & mature ,i mean you'll feel naturally to start a new family of your own.....well i'm also 21, i didn't experience it yet ,this is my opinion...thanks

For me the perfect time to get married is when you are physically, spiritually, financially, and emotionally ready to say the words "I do" in front of the altar and also when you start to realize that you want to spend the rest of your life with that 'special person'.
