The answer to this question is different for everyone. I got married when I was 25. A year and a half later, I'm now 27 and hate my life. Since I've been married, I've realized that I rushed into something that neither myself, nor my wife were ready for. I'm still young and want to have fun in life, and she decided that she wants to settle down and have a family now(she is now 25). She is not the fun girl that I married anymore. I've now moved out and we're seriously contemplating divorce.
Through my experience, I've formed the opinion that no one should get married until they are 30. No matter how much you think you love someone, wait until you are 30. By that age, you should have the foundation of a career started, be relatively debt-free, and know what you want out of life. I thought I knew what I wanted out of life when I got married, but have now learned I was totally wrong!!
Good luck and please don't rush into anything. There's nothing wrong with continuing to date. If a woman really loves you, she will stick around as long as it takes for a man to propose. Woman that demand rings or they'll leave her man are selfish and are not worth marrying in the first place.

Its not abou age. Its about if you're done playing the field. I would not rush marriage if you haven't:
Had a one night stand
Sex with a stranger
Friends with benefits
Sex on the first date
Threesome
At least one STD
Once you've done these, then you can think about settling down. But you know what: Why buy the cows when the milk is free?
Chicks these days want to give it up as much as possible because they beleive in trying on shoes or test driving cars before they buy them or some load of ca ca like that.
You might as well continue to live it up until you're close to 40. Beleive me, chicks these days are "well rounded" if you know what I mean. And if you don't live it up before marriage and you happen to marry one of these broads, she'll take half of everything if you ever try to get some on the side.

You should get married when you find the person you want to spend the rest of your life with.
There is a level of maturity that has to be reached before you should be making lifelong decisions. Some people are ready in their late teens, others never get there. You can't pick a number.

When and if you find the right person ... but no sooner than age 35 would be MY suggestion. You might not want my opinion about having kids. I would say NEVER. The world needs less people, not more. Plus, it's such a rotten place on a downhill slide, why torture someone who does not HAVE to be here?

There's really not an exact age you have to be married by, i think you should first experience everything travel, people, jobs when you aresatisfied that you have you experienced what you want as a single then you can look forward to sharing your experiences with someone you love. to many times people marry young and then wind up in divorce because they are tempted to try things they should have done while single. hope this helps.

Yes if your in love although love doesn't pay the bills. I think you maybe asking the wrong question because your age should not be the determining factor of you deciding to get married.

you become aware of that answer when you meet the right person. You just know when you are ready. If you are not ready do not do it. As for the age thing it really has no reference here, for we all become adults able to make up our own minds at 18, & so I think that it all depends on you.

For God sakes, wait until you are your own person. Meaning, you are independent; financially and mentally, have good morals, and have the desire to share your being with another person who makes you feel even better about the person you are... Don't just get married for the hell of it. Otherwise you will hate yourself for making a wrong decision, and end up with regret and costly divorce bills. Or worse... spend the rest of your life spiritually unsatisfied.
