Today i received a call from my elementary classmate, she told me excitedly,she's going to get married in the coming Feb.15th. OMG,how could it be? I am still in college as a student while she is engaged.
I delivered my best wishes for her before hang up the phone. I told my mom immediately, she's not surprised at all. As what she explained that we are in different circumstance,we treat marriage in different ways.
After closer consideration, i realized it was normal for a 21-year-old girl to get married.Coz i'm not mature enough,so i think little about it.
My fellow mylotties,how about you? what's your ideal age for marriage?

there is no such thing a "perfect time to marriage". Even if one is young, she can get married and the same is true with a person who is already old, she can still get married. What is important is your state of mind being ready. I got married late at 30 and have no regrets. I am happy to have waited even if I got marriage proposals when I was in my early 20's.

I didn't go to college, so I was married just before I turned 23. We had been together for 2 years before we got married, and we've been married over 5 years now.

For me, theres a right time not a specific age.. A right time to commit marraige when your ready emotionaly, spiritualy, financialy and other aspects and have enough maturity in dealing with marriage life. It's not that easy so before engaging with that kind of life, make sure that your ready in all aspects. No specific age for me..

i will not get married until i reached the age of 30 years old..i believed that it is the ideal age of getting married..i think i am much stable that age and could raise better family already and could put up a good future for my coming kids.

For my country, the average age for marriage ranges from late twenties to early thirty. As there is an increase in career-minded woman in my country, people tends to married late. To add on, the male citizens are required to serve in the army for about 2 years. Therefore, the males will start their career late and tends to marry at a later age.
However, I am not intending to married unless i really meet a very good guy:)

I agree. Pressure from life has put off our marriage age. Hope you meet the right guy soon! And Happy mylotting!
