God, I really cannot believe that you got married when you were 19 years old, which was too young, I think. Well, there is a tendency that people are getting married later nowadays, HUh.

I am sorry you lost your husband so soon into your marriage, that must have been very hard for you.
I was married when I was 28 years old, we have been married now for 7 years and have four children. I think that my only regret is that I married too soon, I married more because everyone else thought we should and not because I was ready too. I do love my hubby and I would have definately have married him, but I just wish I had done it when I was totally ready and not half ready.

I got married when I was 25, no regrets at all. There are problems with my partner of course, but when you see the angelic face of your baby, everything gets resolved...

Really? I never thought that staring at your partner's angelic face would solve problemm, I think you are going a little bit further, aren't you? But anyway, if you think it could settle your problem, then it is a good way. Keep on looking at your partner's angelic face. Good luck.

I got married at the age of 24. I do not regret getting married, and I believe I made the right choice. I had a child when I was 19, so when my husband took him in whole heartedly that is when I knew he was the one for me!!

I was engaged to be married when i was younger, but found out he had been seeing someone else behind my back and break my heart. Then i met my now husband and we got married when i was 27 years old. We just celebrated our wedding anniversary of 16 years and we have four lovely daughters.

I am still single now, I am now 27 years old,I have no idea that if I am old enough to get married or not, people around me are actually getting married and some of them even have kids. My parents have always urged me to find a girlfriend and get married, maybe they want a grandson. But I still think that it is yet too early for me to get married at this age, I have to work and I have lots of other things to attend to, who knows what my life would look like if I get married without work?
Have a great day.

well. i think it really doesn't matter if we are getting early or late, cause the essence of marriage lies in the happy relationship.

I guess you are not old yet to be hurry on getting married but if you will be soon then that would be good but I've noticed a brother of mine he got married when he is in your age and have a stable job and helped a lot of my parents need then at this time he is also happily married with 2 kids......

Hello iyah10,
For me it is not the age that matters but whether you are ready for it or not - ready to accept another person in your life during good and bad times, ready to share your life with others and ready with the marriage itself. Marriage is not for a day or two, but hopefully it will last forever. I got married quite late - when I was 32 and was very lucky to get a son a year after. I had enough of experiencing freedom when I was single and I have no regret when I decided to get married. No one forces me. I made my own decision. Right now, I am really content with my family life. I love being a filial daughter, a dedicated wife and a good mother to my lovely son.

Hi there iyah10
I got married when I was 25, started having children when I was 30 and fled from my husband when I was 35. I hate the thought of marrying again and don't think I will. Yes it is tough being a single mum but my life is 100% better now than it was 2 years ago.

I get married when i was 21 and were living together here in Sweden for almost 1 year and i never regret it any single day being with my husband.I think there is no specifec age of getting married as long as you love each other then why not.But theres other country that you must be 21 years old to get married,then they do live in together before married.

I got married the first time a few weeks after I turned 17. Wow, what was I doing? I have no regrets because I have amazing children. I only regret that I wasn't stronger. Now, I'm in another relationship with a lot of good things. It's not perfect but what is perfect? My relationship is minus abuse, so it's all great. :) I now have a 17 yo, a 15 yo, an 11 yo, and a 4 yo. By far, my children are the best part of me. The first three are from my first marriage. The last one from this relationship. He takes responsibility and loves all 4 of them though. I think there is a light at the end of every tunnel.

It sounds like you have done okay for yourself and your children. I got married the first time when I was 19, only lasted a year, ended in divorce. I remarried at 20 shortly after my divorce, was married for 5 years, and we had a daughter. It also ended in divorce, we were too much in age difference, and he was too in love with his money. I remarried a third time when I was 25, had another daughter, that marriage lasted 16 years, before ending in divorce 4 years ago. Eventhough they didn't work out, I don't regret any of them, and I have two wonderful daughters. I have been living with my s/o for 3 years now, and we are happy with things the way they are, and I don't need a wedding to know that he loves me.

iyah for one you cant live your life regretting ever thing you did in it or you will never be happy at all. I was married the first time at 16 we had 3 beautiful daughters together and after 10 yrs we were divorced.Who was to blame?Neither of us we were TO YOUNG to begin with but who suffered My CHILDREN. The second time I was married I thought I really knew what I was doing I was 26 NO THAT WAS EVEN WORSE because he abused my girls and as they say I got out of the skittle into the frying pan,but MY GIRLS and I made it through it LUCKLY (they still love me)And I am now married to a wonderful man that dont have any kids but accept mine as is own along with the grandkids and so there goes the saying HAPPLILY EVER AFTER! You have a wonderful night.Regrets I can say I have had a few but they didnt hold me back.

I married at the late age of 30. My wife was 31 then. Now we have 2 boys and another baby (gender is still unknown) due this November.
You have to be proud of yourself. Being able to endure the tests/hardships/trials that you have been through. That is the right attitude, as long as we breathe, there is hope and reason to live. I admire your will to go on. Stay Safe

I got married at 29, I'll be 33 next month. My husband and have been together a little over 6 and a half years now, the first three years we dated each other exclusively. He's the only man I have ever "been" with and I don't regret it at all. He is very patient and loving and just an all around great guy.
