If all your friends were jumping off a cliff, would you? The fact that you are asking this question says you aren't married yet. You will know when you want to be married. When you are in love with a woman, when you know beyond anything in this world that you want to spend the rest of your life with her, when you can't stop thinking about her, when you can accept her as she is without trying to change her and you know that you both bring out the best in each other. These are but a few indicators that say a person is ready. You also need to make sure you don't have unfinished business. For instance, if you want to finish college, or travel, then it is hard to do those things when you first get married. If you have commitment issues or any other issues, you need to get those worked out first as well. Marry when it is right for YOU. Often times, when a woman's friends start to marry off, she starts to feel like an "old maid" who will never marry. Then if she was married and her friends begin to have babies, she will want one. Don't use your friends or anyone else as your yardstick for when things are right for you. Measure your life's choices by what is best for you. As for Valentines Day, if you have a girlfriend or are seeing someone, go out, have a good time, but don't pop the question. If you don't have a girlfriend, get some buddies together and do something fun or go out where single girls who don't have dates will hang out. Go have a good time. Quit worrying about it, okay?

NO! Don't do it until you're ready. Your friends are all idiots. In fact, in the US, there is no advantage and benefit for men to get married. There is only financial ruin at the end of the rainbow. There is nothing you can't do while you are unmarried that you can do when you are married. When you get married, you are signing a contract that if your relationship fails, and it does 60% of the time, your partner is entitled to half your sh*it, possibly for the rest of your life. That's worse odds that Vegas blackjack.
No benefits. It's OK to settle down and be committed and raise a family together with someone, but there is no need to get married.

No - just because everyone else is marrying doesn't mean that you have to. When you meet the right person you may decide to never marry. One of my friends has decided not to marry unless they both want kids. It's a very personal and serious decision and you should not get married just ot fit in with your friends.

you will get married...when and IF the right person comes along... and don't ever do things ...just because everyone is doing them....
it isn't fair to you...or the woman you marry ... out of desperation

Your friends getting married doesnt mean you should get married.You dont need a gf to get married.A person should get married as he needs a wife.A wife is a helpful person.And about when you can get married check the laws.All i can say is
FOLLOW YOUR HEART

thats not a very good reason to get married...it would be tragic for your prospective future spouse...you aren't being serious, are you?
if so, no don't get married
it is right when you both decide it is
you should marry because you both want to, when you both want to. why you marry is up to the both of you
so, go ahead hate valentines day, you aren't required by law to love it or involve yourself in it...
consider it singles awareness day...
but I stick by what I first said (see what I first said)
happy valentines day

Paraphrasing childhood aadvice: If all your friends jumped off a ten-story building into a roll of barbed wire, would you follow just to be part of the crowd.
Marriage is wonderful, but should be entered into after enough time to really know the other person and, mostly, yourself.
