Acconrding to me the best age is to get married is 25 to 27yrs.i am ot agree with u that after marriage like prisoned.,that depends on the persons......if u get a good husbend who understands u and cares,loves u ,u can enjoy like wt ever u want...so before marriage it's imp to know about that peron he will suits u or not.

I am a young woman (24) very happily married, it will be one year in less than a month. The right age to get married really depends on the individual couple. Maturity comes to people at different times. That being said couples of any and all ages are not taking marriage seriously enough. The divorce rate in this country is ridiculous. People that go to the altar thinking that if it all goes south at least they can get out of it are only setting themselves up to become divorced. Marriage is not EASY; until you are able to put your wishes and dreams aside and create new wishes and dreams together, you should not be getting married. For some people, this means early in life, and for others it never happens. Becoming a less selfish person was in my opinion the hardest aspect in having a happy marriage.

As a few other responders have said I don't think there is a right time to get married. Although I do think before you're 20 is probably to young. I don't think any teenager would be able to make such a huge decision that will affect the rest of their life.
I'm 23 now and can't imagine being married for a new years at least if I even get married, to me although I am in a long term relationship marriage seems very confining.

There is no right or wrong age to get married. I truly believe that when a couple can feel that they will never tire of one another, that their needs and interests mesh so completely that they feel they understand love, then they should get married. This varies for each and every individual. If you feel that a 'wife' automatically becomes caged and imprisoned, I can see that you aren't at the age that marriage would work out. I am 21 years old, as is my fiance. At the moment we're planning on getting married in a year, at the age 22. For some people, this is way too young. For others, it's perfect. I feel that 30 years of age is far too old; your potential to have children is dwindling. When you really think about it, it wasn't too long ago that people were usually married by the time they turned 20. And before that, people were married in their early teens! It's all a matter of readiness, or of culture.

Im 18 and getting married. I think it depends on the person and how long ouv known your spouce ive known mine for 6 years and we have dated for 4. I want all my kids before 30 so thats by the time im 40 there are no kids running around my house. I also think as long as you know you want to spend the rest of your life with this person you should do whats in your heart instead of being another sustistic.

My fiance and I are both 24 years old and will be married at the end of March. I don't think that there is a "right" age to get married. I believe that both people need to be mature enough to understand that marriage is a lifelong committment and will take work.
