YES!!! I am an advocate for women's empowerment and I recommend most females to consider marriage after the age of 25. Getting married after that age should allow her time to finish college, travel a little, work on finances, date, and get to know herself (to include her likes and dislikes and boundaries, etc...) a little more before committing her life to another individual and possibly children. Your life is not your own when you get married and have children. It may be a big shock at such an early age as 22. You may not be able to come and go as you please. You may have to coordinate your time with your husband and find many babysitters for the children, just so you can go out and have a nice time. Just remember that it is easy or cheaper to get married than getting out of it. Also, if you have children, and you are not one of those super-rich people who are able to send your children to an out-of-town boarding school, you are committed (stuck) to them for 18 years and possibly more. I'm not trying to sound negative with this advice, I just believe that it is better to tell someone the truth and be realistic with an answer than sugarcoat it and you have remorse.

It depends on how long you've known each other and how mature you both are. I thought I was mature at 22 ... didn't get married then but could have ... all I can say is, it's a good thing I didn't! If you even have to ask if you're too young, then it's probably not the right time. Stay together, give it more time, make sure before you take those vows.

No, 22 is not too early to get married. I got married at 22. I was ready, and it was the right choice for me.

I dint think so. As long as you have your ducks in a row and are ready to settle down. Being married doesn't mean you cant still experience things and grow as a person, we are all always changing. I really hope I'm not the same person I am now in 5 years or the same person I am at 30 and at 70. Life experience is always changing us. You just have to know and be willing to change together.
My fiance is 28 and I am 23. We will be married this time next week.

I got married at 20 and were still married 3 years later... no signs of self-destructing. :)
To what chris g said... yes youll be different when youre 25.. but youre also going to be different when youre 30... and 35... and 40... and so on...
You just need to make sure you have someone who is headed in the same direction you are.. and hope that you will change and grow together!

No, age shouldn't be the main issue when you want to get married, as long as you know that you can trust the guy to love and care for you as long as you both shall live.

Depends on the 22 year old. I was engaged at that age & it was appropiate.

That all depends on her maturity level. How is the relationship now? There are many different factors here other than age.

No,not early at all. If you go by Biology..it is the best time, if you go by socially..it is the best time..if you go by financialy it is the best time... if you go by your needs it is the best time to get married at 22.

It depends on your relationship and how you and he both feel about spending your lives together. But, if you have a strong relationship and you BOTH feel like you are definately ready to make such a strong commitment..Then go for it :)
