what is the suitable age for getting married?

Answer 1

When they are emotionally, financially, mentally, and physically ready to get married.

Age shouldn't matter. I know some 40 year olds that aren't "mature" enough to get married. Some 18 year olds get married and stay married longer than the 20 year olds.

It's an individual choice and each case is different.

Personally, I'm choosing to wait till I'm done with school. My cousin (who is 19) isn't. Everyone keeps saying he'll get divorced in 5 years. Who knows? Maybe he will or won't. Ain't my business though. My job is to support his decision and wish him well in life :)

Good luck

Answer 2

I don't think there is a suitable age for getting married. I believe when you find your true love and you are able to maintain life, love and many other things that come with it, that is the suitable age.

Answer 3

There is no "magic age" when everyone is ready to marry. Just like people mature at different ages, people are ready to get married at different ages & some are never ready. This is a question everyone has to evaluate themselves on & no one else has the right to say whether or not a person is prepared for marriage.

Answer 4

The age when you know yourself well enough, and you have met the one person you truly want to share the rest of your life with. For some, that could happen early in life, and late for others. The only big mistake is to feel obligated to get married at a certain age. Then you are sure to pick the wrong person.

Answer 6

It is never too early or too late in marraiges. It all depends when you are mentally ready to get married. But sooner is better than later. If you or your parents have found someone
suitable, do not wait for education or career . It can still come to you. But not the suitable match.

Good luck!

Well i'll tell you about my experience and then give my recommendation.

When I was growing up, in a very small town, I was raised to think that you were supposed to get married early and settle down. The end... Well not exactly. I got married when I was 20 to a girl who was18. We thought it was love and great, but after four months of marriage we were on the rocks and she moved out. Two months later we got back together... six months later she moved out... we argued all the time and the little things that were cute at first became annoying. After 4 years she became pregnant after I returned from my first tour in the war. We divorced a year later. Now we are great friends, but we are horrible together, and now, 7 years after we were married, she's not even my type any more. Tastes change... So, after that first marriage I can't see getting married again any time soon.

So I ask this. What the hell is the point? Women don't need men any more to get by hun... It's not the 1800s were a lady needed to get hitched so that she knew she'd have someone to pay the bills while she pumped out babies to work the family farm. I'm sure you dated guys before that you thought were awsome right? Then, somewhere along the way something changed and you said, "screw this shiiit". Now imagine that you were legally bound to that turd and had to pay thousands of dollars to get away from him. Through the process he lays it out that he wants the house (because it's in his name) even though you helped paythe bills... My point is it's a pain in the ***. Honestly, the ONLY real benefit to getting married is the tax advantage. Other than that there's nothing. Over half of marriages end in divorce and there aren't any long term statistics for our generation yet so I expect that percentage to rise. Just date a guy for a couple of years and see what happens. If you are absolutely convinced that in 20 years after he's bald on top, hairy on the back, and has gained 60 pounds, that you still want him pressed up against you at night sweating under the blankets... then hell yeah, get married.

Just make sure that he's going to want to be with you in 20 years after a couple of kids when the skin isn't as tight around the belly as it used to be and the boobies aren't quite as perky as they once were. Aging and changing bodies are a huuuuuge reason why men and women start cheating in their marriages. Just remember that if you hadn't of been married you could have split a long time ago, avoided the drunk fights, and hooked up with that hot pool boy who'd been giving you the evil eye. ;)

If thats not enough... here are some stats from the site posted below...

-2 out of 3 married women and 3 out of 4 married men admit they have sexual thoughts about co-workers.

Conservative infedelity statistics estimate that "60 percent of men and 40 percent of women will have an extramarital affair. These figures are even more significant when we consider the total number of marriages involved, since it's unlikely that all the men and women having affairs happen to be married to each other. If even half of the women having affairs (or 20 percent) are married to men not included in the 60 percent having affairs, then at least one partner will have an affair in approximately 80 percent of all marriages.

Ten percent of extramarital affairs last one day, 10 percent last more than one day but less than a month, 50 percent last more than a month but less than a year, but 40 percent last two or more years. Few extramarital affairs last more than four years.

70 percent of married women and 54 percent of married men do not know of their spouses' extramarital activity.

So once again... Ask yourself... What is the honest to God point of marriage? Why do you need it?

Best of luck.

Answer 8

There is no "right" age. I've seen people married at 17 and at 35! Just depends on where you are in your relationship with the other person.

Answer 9

there is no set age of when to get married. I know people who got married at 17 and some who got married at 53. It just depends on when your ready for it. Alot of people these days live with their boyfriend, then get engaged and 7 years later they get married.

Answer 10

I would say mid-twenties to mid-thirties....When one is mature enough to take on the responsibility of a marriage and a home. Usually when one has a career going and has finished school. Financial burdens usually break couples up! You need to be well established financially and emotionally ready to invite someone to share their life with you! The age depends of when you have all your ducks in a row and ready for the plunge....you don't just want to take the plunge....you want to succeed with it!
