I want to get married.

just reading your topic i knew you are from the Philippines....getting married is not the purpose of this life....are you ready to give up your freedom...are you ready to do the domestic work for your husband and for your would be children...."most" Filipino men do not do household work...the wife do everything....you will not be able to go wherever you want and do whatever you wish to....marriage is a very complicated matter, unless you are ready to face it and suffer the consequences..you can go ahead...Good Luck!

Marry early will be a good thing in your life so that, you can have your children early. If yo marry very late, I just worry the time when you are old, yo9ur children are still very young. As long as you find a right and reliable guy you like, you should go ahead to marry. You have nothing to concern so much in your marriage. Nothing is unresolvable in our life. In our life, we can not avoid for not facing so many challenge or problems. It depends on what we want, what we think and how we handle. ha! ha! I am sure you will regret for marrying late or for not marrying.

If you are in doubt then might as well not get married yet. Marriage is tied with more responsibilities. It is a commitment and needs hard work, patience and constant communication in order to succeed. It is hard but rewarding as well. It's not bad at all, just challenging. Just make sure you find the partner that you wanted to be with for the rest of your life. The positive side of marriage is you will have someone beside you through thick and thin (if your partner commit to it too). If you are from a broken family like me then this is a chance to have your own family and make things work well.

I think there 26 is a great age to get married. It's always nice to start a family younger. Many people nowadays are tie-ing the note later and later and i don't think it's a good thing. Although there are many people who divorce these days, i still believe that marriage is a great thing. Our life won't be complete without marriage. As long as you get married to the person that you love, and the person loves you with all his heart, you won't regret it.

I think you are already in your legal age to marry. But in your discussion there are some facts which are lacking like, why won't they allow you to marry your boyfriend? Who are these people who try to prevent you from getting married, are they your parents? If they are your parents, they may have reasons why they are not agreeable to your plan of getting married. I'm a mother and a wife. Speaking from experience, becoming a mother and a wife is indeed not an easy task. Is marriage for good? Well, it depends on both of you and your husband. You might as well try getting married now and then after five years or ten years, you can make your own conclusion that would aptly answer all your questions about this issue.

First you should make up your mind and take an independent decision whether you need to be dedicated and loyal to your chosen spouse. All the relations in life has its own higher ups and downs but we do carry on with it. If you have found someone who respects you and you are comfortable with then you can tie the knot. Marriage is like a sugarcane. No matter how you crush it or squeeze it at the end all you get is sweetness. It a wonderful feeling to be a wife and becoming a mom would make you the most happiest women in the world. Best of luck...

here's the thing. are you in a relationship with someone you want to spend the rest of your life with? if so, then sure, you're a good age to marry. if you're not, there's no point even thinking about marriage. you don't decide to marry, then look for the right person. you find the right person, then decide. if you haven't found that person yet, then there's no rush.

well i think that any adult can get married as long as both people in the relationship really love each other and have a few other things arranged, such as where you will live. i think it is definately hard to be a wife (because i am one) but if you really work at it, it is very rewarding. i am way younger than you and i have been married for almost a year. i think it's worth it. as for motherhood, i don't know much about that, but i feel you are agewise ready to have children. best of luck

Don't get married for the wrong reasons. I'm a married person but every time I hear someone asking that question I always tell them to think about it carefully. Balance the pros and cons first because in the Philippines getting married is a one way trip. Some would say that the best way to learn in life is to go through failure, true, but you're smart if you learn from the mistake of others. Just bear in mind that marriage is not just about love, love will fly out of the window when you're hungry. Think about your finances and most importantly evaluate if you're matured enough to handle anything that life throws at you. After giving it much thought and you think you can overcome all them then go for it.

well I guess if your ready emotionally and better if you and your partner is ready financially then go ahead theres no problem.. no one can tell you guys what to do.. coz Im sure you already heard about the PROS and CONS of starting a family... But if you wanna get married because you think everyhing is going to be better and therell be no more cheating.. I dont think so.. it doesnt mean when your married everything is gonna be find.. I think its harder lots of expectation... In my case (Im already married) and God knows how much I love my hubby.. but if this one doesnt work out.. well I dont think I wanna get married again..lol

Well others might say that you have to enjoy being single to the fullest before getting into married life and that is right. But being a married person doesn't mean you can't enjoy life. You can still enjoy but in a different stage. For me, I enjoy going out with my hubby and son and I miss them when I go out with my friends alone. You must realize first that your are ready to have more responsibilities before getting into it. It is because you will be thinking more about your family and not just for yourself. People may hinder you to get married coz probably, more of them had not been enjoying life as they did when they were yet singles. Its all about you. If you feel that you are ready to have your on family, so be it coz its you who will run your life and not them. Goodluck.

well for me getting married was a big decision, you should think it first 1000x, before you do it, because its a decision that would change your whole life..specially if you're emotionally ready, financially stable, physically ready,,,,why because all these things would affect your life,actually getting married was easy but the responsibility for being mother of your child, to have a good family of coarse you need to considerate about that one...now a days life was not easy,when you got married you should stable jobs also you're husband, of coarse you will built a family, you need a house, money! Maybe the people around you who was preventing you to got married, they just want you to be prepared, and i guess not preventing but in the right time, that you would had a good future for you, specially most of our parents they want us to be happy with a good future when we got married....so dont be in a hurry...listened to the people they knows better than you!!!

I think it is your right to get married and if you set your mind already, I dont think it is right to let someone stop you marry the man you love. I married when I was 22 and I am lucky I have a supportive mom. It wont be easy letting go of a child and let her go marry. But they have to see that you are sure and that the man makes you happy. Do you know the reason why they stopped you from marrying?

if both of you are financially and emotionally ready to start a family then go ahead, coz being married is a huge responsibility, when youre married its not only about you anymore, it's about family.

Married is very important in a person’s life. Because after getting married there are many responsibilities on a person’s shoulder. So I think as you say you become mature day by day so now you may get married if you have any girlfriends. Or if you want to arrange marriage then it also be a wonderful idea.

I think it's entirely up to you when you should get married. If you think that you're ready as an individual, and that your relationship is ready, then you shouldn't let anyone prevent you from taking that next step. Marriage is a good thing, but it isn't something that should be rushed. I know some people who didn't marry until they were forty, and others who married at eighteen - age really isn't the important factor to consider. What is important, is whether you're ready to commit yourself, for the rest of your life, to this one person. Whether you are ready, financially, to have the sort of wedding you want. Whether you are ready, emotionally and financially to start a family - it'll mean time off work, your life revolving around the child, not being able to do things as and when you want to, etc etc. I can't comment on whether you would regret it if you got married, only you can truly answer that question. But if you know, 100% that you love your partner, and the two of you are ready for that lifelong commitment, don't let anyone stand in your way.

I think getting married is not depend on the age. It depend on your self. I think if you feel that you can handle the responsibility of being a married person then it is okay that you get married but if you feel that you still need to depend on your parents or in other person just to survive your married life everyday need i think you need to wait much more time.

I think it is all up to you. Yes, starting a family is not easy. But, if you are ready for it, you should marry the man you love and accept all the consequences. Good luck!
