depends, it's not really age so much as being realistic. are you ready to commit to a single person, Forever? are you financially set, do you have the means to take care of yourself and your wife? what about kids? how many? what kind of lifestyle do you want? what do you want in getting married? are you doing it for companionship or for love or to just get it over with?
age does give some wisdom but not all. it does matter when the age gap is far and between. i married my husband when i was 30, he was 46. there is some adjustment issues but none that i can't deal with. realize that he's 16 years my senior and had gone through many things.
getting married young isn't really a bad thing, but realize that as time, kids,career, and age progressess your are not the same person you were when you got married. you know more, you experienced more things, your relationship has to adjust with this. know that getting married is not a solution, it is a life changing decision that has to be talked through and thought through. divorce is never a good thing, it changes you and can make it harder for you to find and keep relationships. friend or lover. don't settle in what you need and want in a partner. for me physical attraction was not a factor and could settle, security and stability was very important and i would not settle for anything other than that.

There is not certain age that is the best time to get married. I got just got married about a month ago & i'm 22. It is a big step & you should NEVER take it lightly or just do it to get out of a situation. I had a friend that got married just because she wanted to get out of her parents home. That was a huge mistake; they were married for about 1 & 1/2 years & they had a child together. Now they are divorced; it's very sad. But anyway, my point is you just know when the time is right for you. I know i got married young, but i couldnt be any happier! Hope this helps! =)

I think the right or perfect age to get married is the age you are when you decide you've found the person you want to marry. I got married when I was 20 (and no I didn't get pregnant first) and my husband was 23. It really all depends on you and the person you want to marry.

Depends on how long you are with you Significant other...Rushing it is pointless because if your supposed to spend the rest of your life with someone then why get married fast. The statistics for Divorce in America are CRAZY! Almost all Marriage ends in divorce these days. Im not saying all the time but give your relationship time before you rush it...maybe even a few years...My girlfriend and I have been together for 4 years now and we still arent rushing it. Our friends on the other hand have all gotten divorces withing the first 2 years of marriage and they rushed it...So i guess ultimately comes down to your choice...but give it time...there is no reason to rush true love.

There is no perfect age to get married. Obviously you should be over 18 or you are a minor - but other then that it's up to you and your partner. As long as you both understand the commitment and what marriage means and it's what you both want, then you are ready.

It really doesn't matter what age you are when you get married. But if you feel that it is time. Its time to tie that matrimonial knot and enjoy the rest of your life that person you are committed to for all eternity.

Marriage is a personal choose. My advise is, before you ask and make that commitment, make sure you are prepared to live the rest of your life with that other person. Marriage is a big step but if your satisfied and that person completes you make the move because if you feel that way the other person have probably been waiting for you to ask.

Love is what matters in marriage not age. I was 22 and we are still going strong getting ready to have our 5th Anniversay.
