You know, before about 22 or 23. There's something weird and sketchy about it. I wonder how many of those marriages actually last.

Yeah. I guess you don't hear or read it often in everyday life.

as far as the US, not many
its part of why so many young men and women today are basically skipping out on it

what made it culturally "required" is no longer in play, the government got its hand too much in it, and people can casually get many of the classic benefits without the ring

"it's best for the children" isn't really a compelling narrative anymore...

Early 20's. Its true though, unless they have been dating for awhile or are mentally mature enough to deal with lige hardships and money, getting married at a young age is a bad deal. If you really want to be together very badily at a young age, move in together.

Are you suggesting forced marriages or something?

There are two couples I know who are engaged to their military guys, and they're all early 20s. I agree it's too young, but some marriages worked out for that long too.

"Any kind of 20s" is bold. Lots of people get married in their late 20s and it's not weird

A few years ago I worked a wedding where the bride and groom were both 18. I wonder how they're doing these days.

Yes, there is something exceptionally odd about believing that you're going to spend the remaining 2/3 - 3/4 of your life with one person. I mean, you barely remember the first 10 years of your life...so you've effectively experienced 10 solid years (plus change depending how young you got married)...and now your convinced that you're going to put up with someone for the remaining 80? Are you kidding me?

Think of all the shit that's happened to you in those 10 years. I'm not talking about just the bad stuff...think of everything, all the most boring parts, all the best parts of your life, everything. You're going to do all that 8 more times, but now with one person watching over your shoulder the whole time. Fuck that nonsense.

Irrelevant.
Even if you do remember absolutely everything you're still staring at 3/4's of your life like it's nothing.

As someone that almost got married at 20, I have to say yeah, that would have made for a miserable life.

My friend got married on his 21st birthday. It's been 8 years now and he seems pretty miserable most of the time.

Even locked it down with two kids.

I told him there was no rush but he was scared he'd never find anyone else.
