Question

Answer 1

it's all up to you...i know that you're just asking for opinions so i would say if you guys truly love each other then yeah go ahead and do it just dont have kids until a couple a years to see if it's going to work out or not...like i said if you guys really love each other then it'll work out age doesn't matter...people will say that you're too young and that you should wait but if you truly believe that it will work out then why listen to other people ...remember no matter what you do in life people are always going to judge you...good luck Hun : )

Answer 2

When I was 20 and my wife was 17 I also gave her a "sort of promise ring" whatever that means. Asking you to marry him is a different story as that would be considered an engagement. For me, a promise ring stated an intention to quit looking for other relationships and my intention to pursue marriage in the future. We were eventually engaged and then married three years later. We have been married for just under 25 years and I think it may work out OK for us. I know others however that were certainly not ready at that age because age does not determine maturity and I have seen that the latest generation is maturing at a much later age. You have a lot of life ahead of you so I would recommend that you take your time. Also remember that it is not an unbreakable vow until you are married. Even engagements are a time to discover compatibility. If you have not already messed up, then don't have sex until you are married because it will have consequences. Remember that of the marriages that fail, over 85% of them had lived together prior to marriage.

Answer 3

I think only you know if you're too young. I also think you should wait until you're at least 18, and make sure that you're ready and making that big of a decision for the right reasons. You may want to try talking to your parents, depending on how your relationship with them is, or someone else you can talk to with a little more experience than you have. And don't just rush into something, finish school or whatever your plans are, you don't want to look back on something as important as getting married and have to wonder whether it was a mistake or not. Good luck!

Answer 4

If you asked you must feel you are too young. You haven't been out in the world yet. You have so many things to do, to see, to experience, you would be making a mistake by marrying this young. I have been friends with many girls, and all of them are vastly different people now than at 17or 18. You wouldn't know them today. They have been in the real world free to be who ever they want to become, and some married young and some haven't still . but they are different people today. The young marrieds all say they should have waited . They now wonder what they could have become if they hadn't married. only one of the early married is still with her husband , and she says she wishes she would have grown up before marriage. You have the same options as my friends. You can become a wife and mother, or experience life and then decide.

Answer 5

YES!
Don't even CONSIDER marriage for the next 10 years.

Let me tell you why:
50% of marriages end in divorce. Another 25% aren't happy, just co-dependent.

Getting married is no guarantee of happiness. It can actually be a catalyst for misery, esp. if you're young. There are many stresses associated with marriage (bills, careers, moving, etc., kids?) and it does not help a relationship. You will probably be more likely to stay together if you don't get married.

Answer 6

yes you are too young you should at least be 18 to be able to date but too marry that is bogos she if you can date for 2 or 3 years more that will be much better then being married at 17 year old trust me i know

Answer 7

while you're youthful, then it may be fairly unlikely which you have colon maximum cancers. plenty greater in all possibility could be an "anal fissure" (a tear on your backside, in line with possibility led to via passing a great stool), or hemorrhoids (swollen blood vessel in you backside) or in line with possibility, even with the undeniable fact that much less in all possibility, a colon polyp (a protruding advance interior the colon that would ruin off and bleed). once you spot blood on your poop it's time to pass to the well-being care provider. you're in all possibility scared, don't be as a results of fact it is going to very in all possibility be something danger free. in spite of the undeniable fact that it is not something you will desire to easily leave and desire it is going away. Please tell your mum (counting on precisely how youthful you're) and manage a pass to to the well-being care provider.

Answer 8

id say wait till youre like 21 years and 6 months cuz there are tooooooo many responsibilities and sometimes early marriages dont work out for waaay too many reasons but then again it is a free country.
