I'M 22, IS it too young to MARRY?

Question

I'm getting married in 10 days....she's the best, is it too young? no opinions will sway me from my decision but give me some feedback . yeah

Answer 1

no.totally not.

Congrads =) and the best of luck

Answer 2

Congratulations, and no, 22 is not too young. My husband was 22 and I had just turned 19 the week before we got married. We have been married 31 years, and have had a pretty terrific marriage.
Out of a group of about 12 couples (who all married young) there has only been 1 divorce in the bunch. 2 of the men died, and the rest of us are all still married.
I don't think age matters, I think finding the right person is what matters.

Now this is ticking me off. How can this be a bad answer?
If you don't like the truth , you can kiss my 50 yr old ***

Answer 3

I know people who got married that young (and younger) who have had many troubles or divorced. Usually it's because they were too immature to understand what a marriage is. Then again, a lot of people, no matter what age, don't understand how to make a marriage work (hence the high divorce rate). On the other hand, some people are mature at 22 (my sister-in-law was that age when she married my brother who was 24, and she was definitely mature for her age). They've been married 11 years now. BUT they knew with marriage came many changes and much responsibility. So to answer your question, it depends on you and her. If you are both willing to make this lifelong commitment (in good times and bad) , understand your roles as husband and wife (it's not the same as boyfriend/girlfriend), understand that your single life as you knew it is over (your single friends are just going to have to deal with it--and trust me, they will whine and complain about how little they now see you), lay down your selfish ways (because really, when we are single, we only have ourselves to think about) and start putting her first (and vice versa--that's called "agape" or sacrificial love), then 22 is not too young to marry. May God bless your marriage. :)

Answer 4

I wouldn't say you are too young, if you love each other. I think nowadays people are getting married at an older age because of the financial side of things. Saying that though, house prices have come right down this month. Good luck to you both!

Answer 5

I am more concerned that you are asking such a question than I am about your age.

I think that you will both be fine as long as you don't expect each other to change in anyway. Actually through out all your excpectations and just work on becomeing the best possible husband (or wife) you can be.

Make your own happiness and know that this in not your partners job.

Just know that a lasting marriage isn't easy but it is so worth it.

You chose your Love ........... now Love your choice.

Answer 6

It depends on the type of person you are and the type of person she is. To some people you may seem to young but you are the only one who can be the real judge of that. I know people who got married when they were 18 and they have now been married for 30 years. It really depends on you and the person you are married to. Just remember it is a big step and getting married should be a forever deal not something you do for a while and then bail out of. Good luck and Congratulations to you and best wishes to her!

Answer 7

Too late to be asking, 10 days to go. but any way you are not too young. My parents was 16/19 when they got married 45 years ago. My younger brother was 20 and he is still happy.

Answer 8

My husband was 22, and I was 18. Getting married young isn't always easy, but if you know you two are meant to be together, and are willing to commit tthe rest of your lives to eachother, why wait?? We worked it out and have been married for 2 years so far. I woudn't have changed it forthe world.

Answer 9

If you have to ask yr too young.
Sounds like u r having doubts.
If you dont want to go ahead with it
say now otherwise forever hold yr peace.

However, 22 is not too young if you are going to be o.k. about it and take responsibility seriously, especially when the babies come along. Its up to you and her to make a real go of it, it can be tough, but I hope everything works out and wish you well. Its not yr age, its how mature u both are.

Answer 10

id certainly hope not as i will be 23 when i get round to getting married!
i agree with the poster who said its not an age thing its a maturity thing that is the key to helping keep your marriage together.
respect, an willingness to do things for your spouse without asking for things in return are the things that make you a good partner in life and as long as you keep remembering to treat her well for the rest of your lives then I'm sure you will be fine!
dont just be one of those men who gets married and then thinks he doesn't ever have to "woo" his wife as he already has her, i know a man like this and unbeknownst(?) to him, his marriage is hanging by a thread..

good luck with the wedding day and all the days after!

Answer 11

I was 22. We are getting ready to celebrate our second anniversary. Each day gets better and better. I fall deeper and deeper in love with him each day. Just know that every day is different and problems do arise. Just be patient with one another and TALK about everything. Good luck and best wishes to the both of you!
