Would you marry someone (in the US) who had no experience living on his or her own? Why or why not?

Answer 1

No I wouldn't, been there and did that on my first time. He and I came right from our homes which we grew up in and knew nothing of the real world. He was very immature and well thanks be to God really(although at the time I sure didn't understand His plan)that the guy said "I don't love you, want out after 13 months of marriage..."and then time went by, and I met my husband who was out on his own, had rented an apartment, and had just bought a house! He knew about the real world, what it took to run a house(although now seems to have forgotten somewhat,haha)and you find that they are that much more mature and ready to begin a life with you. That's my experience at least, so good luck to you! You'll have your own story to tell, in years to come! :)

Answer 2

No, because they would always have to be taken care of and if they have no experience then the relationship will therefore be strained. Relationships are hard enough in today's world, but having to teach someone to be independent is just too much work...

Answer 3

wouldn't marry a girl from the US anyway, too needy, now put in the fact that they have no experience living on their own and the problem is compounded

Answer 4

No, because they would go straight from being dependent on their parents to being dependent on me. I think everyone should have the experience of being on their own and taking care of themselves before they get married. 'Cause what if that person dies or ends up being a real jerk? How will one take care of oneself?

Answer 5

You can never know. Love cannot be measured, nor can it be judge on whether the person you love has experience or not.

Answer 6

If I love that person...sure!
