Hey,
I think you should do what u know is right in your heart . In my opinion through experience there are a lot of changes after high school. It might be best to wait. Marriage is something sacred and that should not be taken for granite . Its not something u just do to do because its a great experience its a life long commitment. Just know what responsibilities come with marriage. Make sure you love this man and through THICK n THIN you'll be together. If you have been in the relationship quiet sometime and u feel the time is right go for it. If your fresh wait and see what happens. You have a whole life ahead of u and a lot changes in college an you learn more about YOURSELF when u get older. If you all have never lived together try it first. Its different when u date someone and u live with them. I'm speaking from experience. Good Luck and keep your head to the sky.
p.s especially if you guys are questioning it it should wait

I would at least wait until you graduate high school. If you two have been together for a long time that might not be a bad time, but if you have been together for less than a few years I would, personally, wait until you turn 25 just to make sure you are truly compatible and meant to be. Good luck either way!

You can settle this by listening to people who are older and smarter than you.
Graduate and go to college. If, after 2 years, you are still together (and I'd lay heavy odds that you won't be), go ahead and get married.
I was engaged at 19, married at 21. And we're still married and happy (this is pretty much only because we're both Christians, I'll admit). But marrying so young -- without having finished college -- has caused us about 90% of the problems we've had. Marriage is no fun when you're broke!

Well that just all depends. I would say def. wait until after high school, but I wouldn't go as far as saying until 25. You need to finish school and get a career and things going for yourself and then get married. If you love each other then you will wait. No matter how long it is.

Compromise- isn't that what marriage is all about? Maybe right after you graduate is way too early, but if he's much older than you he might not want to wait another 7 years... that's a hell of a long time for most people. So, set a date sometime in between.

waiting till you turn 25, the best thing you can do, you still have college to go through, and a lot of fun years to enjoy without being tied down, etc.. Trust me, if you get married after you graduate from high school, you'll regret it for the rest of your life.

Try to wait till you turn 25. That way both of you will most likely be financially settled. Then again, if you really love each other that much, then there's no need to wait.
Congratulations.

hi, i think that waiting untill you are 25 is the better thing to do, so that way you get to know each other better and you can get a career going befor you settle down and have a family, trust me i did it the other way around and now between raising my children on my own and working i don't have time to go to school, just what ever you decide just make sure that you know him well enough to make the comment. good luck
