16 is way to young to get married. You don't know who you are, what you want to do with your life, or even if you'll still be in love with your spouse in a couple of years. You should wait to get married. Spend time with them, even move in with them and wait to see if they are who they really say they are. You never know what somebody is like until you live with them. If you marry someone and then you find out that they aren't who they said they are getting a divorce is hard and can be expensive. the best thing to do is wait until you're older before you get married to make sure you're doing the right thing.

In the olden days 16 is definitely an able to married age but the reason most of them married at a young age is to in search of a better life or family agreement by their parents, (something like matchmaking) not because they love each other. As the era is changing, women tends to get married at a later age to sought for a better partner or to get a foothold in the business field. Make sure that the other partner are able to provide you financially before agreeing to get married at such a young age. Otherwise there will be bound to have problems if both are of young age and financially unstable at the time of marriage. Secondly, the maturity of the couples is also very important. If they are able to foresee what will happen after they get married, all the pros and cons and are prepared for it, then chances are the marriage will last. If couples get married for the sake of getting married because they are in the stage of hot romance, the sparks will cool down over the years and eventually will lead to no good end. These are just some of the few points to take note when getting married at a young age.

16 is very very young I think, you have big part of life before. You are maybe too young to truly love that person, you will grow up a bit, meet other people and maybe you will find that THE person is not so prefect like you think now... Maybe u are only used to be with him? I had young girlfriend some time ago, we were 2 years together, I was hearing from her everyday how she love me and one morning she left me because of another guy :( day before was all ok...

Yes, because believe me from experience, you start to change as you grow older and do not feel or perceive things the same way, love included. I think it's best to live your life and then determine close to your 30's if you truly want to settle down, unless you feel in your heart it will work I don't know, but everyone is different and I feel I have evolved maturely at different aspects of my life so far.

Sure that it was too young to marry in 16 yrs. If u r in love, let it be. Wait till you become elderish like atleat 20 or 21. Then if u still think that u r in love with that person and u want to marry him, then go ahead.
