You never "have to get married". If you WANT to get married, wait until you have enough education to get a job that will allow you to support yourself if your husband leaves or dies.

Whenever you want. There shouldn't be an age limit. However, I do think that you should be at least 18 years old, I do not believe that someone any younger is equipped with knowledge and experience to make that sort of life altering decision. Most importantly is getting to the know the person that you are going to marry, that's why the divorce rate - I THINK - is so high. Because people don't really get to know the other person enough to realize, "Hey, this person might not really be the one for me after all." Why rush.

You can get married when ever you want. If your under 18 though the man or girl must be no more than 1 - 2 year older than you but this varies by state and other countries, you would also need parental consent if your of or under 16 years old.

I say at least when your an adult thats for sure. When you young you dont know what the hell you want. If your dating someone stay with them for 7 years then see if you still want to get married. You may be in love but that can change very quickly.

Some people never get married. You have to find someone who you love and you are compatible with. You don't have to get married if you don't want to. If you do want to date the person for a long time so you can get to know them fully.

you have to ask your , are you really in love with the person that you are with and does your partner really love you the same way you love your partner. and if you find that y'all love each the same way then you can discuss whether or not y'all should get married because your partner may not want to get married. and it does not matter what age you get married because many people get married at a young age and other get married when they older.

Every state has different laws and ages at which you can marry, call your local city hall for details.

This website will tell you the age you need to be and any relevent laws according to state: http://www.coolnurse.com/marriage_laws.htm
If your parents emancipate you, that is if they go to court and sign a form makeing you a LEGAL adult, you may get married sooner but statutory rape and age of conent laws will still apply.
