Crazy for wanting it? No.
Hasty and too young? Yes.
Don't mistake wanting to move out on your own for readiness for marriage.

Now 25, I was pregnant and married at 17. My husband was also 17 Luckily for us it has been the right decision. Although, we have changed alot in the last 8 years, it had been for the better. We've had alot of support from both our families. The only thing I can suggest when making your decision is to consider your "freedom". When married you'll have to consider the other person in all aspects of life. When you wake up or go to sleep. Going where ever, whenever, when you feel like it. No longer just thinking about "YOU". You wont be able to be as "selfish" with your time anymore. Just cause you don't live with parents doesn't mean you don't have to answer to anybody. As long as your ready to give this up, only time will tell if it was the right decision for you or not.

Not crazy, but maybe a little naive. I knwo everyone is going to tell you not to do it, and I knwo you are going to defend it and justify it in your head, but be careful. You don't want to do it to try to prove everyone else wrong and that you are an adult and can do what you want. At 16, your probably haven't finished High School yet even, and I would assume your significant other hasn't either, you do have a lot of growing up to do. You have a lot about yourselves to learn. All of that nonsense, but more importantly, you will have a very hard time supporting yourselves. Where would you live? Where would you work? Who would take care of the house? Etc. Marriages like this VERY rarely work out. Wait a few months or even a year or two, and if you still feel likeyou should be together, get married. But consider very seriously your decision before you make it. If you decide to do it, I wish ou the best of luck.

I don't think you're crazy, but you shouldn't make these type of decisions with such haste. How long have you known the one you want to marry? Have you all went through any sort of counseling together? How well do you know each other? What is your reason for getting married? Does the other person share in this reasoning? These are all important questions to ask yourself before you decide to take that step. If you can answer all of these questions and feel good about your answers, then go for it, but know that marriage is a serious committment and should not be taken lightly.

I don't think you are crazy, just young. You aren't old enough to know what's best for you yet. And if you and this boy (I hope he's under 18 too) are having sex, then the feelings he's giving you would make you think you are grown up and ready. TRUST me on this, you aren't. Wait a while, you don't have to break up, but if he really loves you, he'll let you have your childhood years and will wait until you are both mature enough to handle all the responsibility that goes along with marriage. It's not all about fuzzy feelings and great sex. What about college and seeing a bit of the world first? Slow down little girl, the world will be waiting for you when you grow up a bit more. You are breaking my heart. But good luck whatever you choose to do.

absolutely everyone 'underage' can get married as long as they have the two youngsters' mom and dad criminal consent. this is approximately your in basic terms possibility. yet heavily... with the aid of fact your youthful.... it seems such as you're caught up interior the emotions and hormones that warmth up at your age. you should attend.. in case you do no longer you will locate out that life and marriage isn't all 'butterflies' and 'freedom' love it somewhat is interior the flicks. On a greater humorous notice... once you pronounced your have been 'sixteen going on 17' I right now considered the Sound of music. (which you should think of approximately.. even interior the action picture... the female and guy have been so confident they have been genuine for another... yet as they waited and matured.. they found out it does no longer artwork).

If you're having trouble getting along with your parents, and this is the reason you want to get married, think again. Instead of deciding to get married as a way of getting out of the parental home, try getting some counseling to repair the relationship at home. Even if you don't repair the relationship with your parents, you'll still get valueable advice and tools necessary to form great relationships in the future, when you're mature enough to handle them.

At 16 its a little soon to be thinking about marriage especially if your still in school, if you both love each other you can wait until you've graduated. Then if you want to just pray and ask for Gods guidance in the situation and live your life. Its yours and no one should tell you how to live it. Best of luck

I don't know where you are from, but you cannot get married at 17, unless getting consent from your parents first. You cannot marry until you are legal age (18, 20 or 21) in your state or Province. I got married at 18.

YES, Life is hard and yet you rather be out their on your own. BUT is not easy as you think. Getting marry is a very big respect and you have your whole life ahead of you. If your friend love you now, I think he or she will love you when you are older and wiser to get married. Some mistakes can not be taken back.

Yes.
You're still too young to really know and understand what you want. That's the single biggest reason for waiting to get married. It's also the single biggest reason that marriages in which one of both partners are that young almost inevitably don't last.
What's the big hurry?
