What is the best age to get married?

Question

Miristheiss · Accepted Answer

20s.

Maybe 18-23 for girls, 21-27 for guys.

We pair bond when we grow together. "You can't teach an old dog new tricks". Once you've lived on your own and formed all of your habits and your way of doing things you can't suddenly move someone else in at age 30 and grow together. You are both too set in your own ways.

The entire men and women pair up is to have kids and family units that make a healthy society. You don't wait until you are almost infertile and then pair up.

People aren't meant to "bond" with tons of people sexually. Modern lies preach that career is the number priority in life. Go F around and then once you've messed up your ability to pair bond, accumulated tons of bitterness and emotional baggage by getting screwed over multiple times, once you screwed tons of different people, you are jaded by life you are set in your ways and have become inflexible THEN you pick a mate and settle and have a family and bond and grow together as a couple.

Western society if fucked. Nature made us to be the way we are. This wait until you are 30 to marry and start families is utter insanity. That isn't the way we are designed.

Honestly 40s would be best for the actual relationship , but you have the problem of Childbirth and 40s is just too late for this , so with reproduction in mind , late 20s would be absolute best , but in reality these days , people will not just be having " lifelong " relationships , so most likely they will be teaming up with others in 40s / 50s on the assumption their marriage went okey , but nothing lasts forever now , so just be mentally prepared for separation down the track , as it will happen sadly.

I’m almost 27 soon so I wish I was married by 25. But wasn’t. I think 25 would be good age I am ready settle down by 25 but I’m 27 soon and not settled down yet as I never had a good boyfriend that loves me so I’m delayed in getting married. I don’t want be married by 30 tho I want settle down sooner 27-28

That depends on the society. Shakespeare's Juliet was two week shy of fourteen when her parents arranged for her to marry and, at the time, people didn't think she was too young. In our modern society 19 through 22 would be the best age for females to marry and a little older for men.

DishLady · Answer

I’d say 25-35 so you’re young enough to run after the kids but old enough to know how to choose your person.

Universaldance · Answer

Due to not knowing who I am or getting finances in order until now (at 27-28) I am biased due to my values. I always wanted to be prepared to start my ideal family and made me select the 30s

…but really should be 20s because that’s enough time to have figured some things out, gotten experience, traveled around, made some money, spent some of it, saved some, and even seeing through enough big decisions about the direction one would want to take their life in

Writing this out, 30s now feels too far out there as I didn't need that much time so some early time in my 20s would have to be my final selection

leenatita · Answer

It really depends. Everyone has their own right timeline
I am 25 and my husband is 28 and thats perfect for us. We both work and also spend the time together in our free times so the person should feel ready financially and mentally. And I belive that If I was married ın my 30's ıt would be so hard for me to fit in that. The responsibilities , sharing the life with someone would be harder and I would be so selective to choose anyone after getting adapted to have a single life. So girls try to marry ın your 20's

O_Canada · Answer

Love's sweet aroma
When hearts and minds expand
Seek wisdom and love
Not just age's strong demand

Souls entwine, hearts
Mature and arise
Find balance and harmony

Paths merge and collide
In life's Canada
Where two souls can agree

Our hands in hands
We grow and we see
Life's grand saga
Unfolds naturally
Joy's agenda
In love's jubilee

Benjiman19 · Answer

I'd say mid to late 20s so that (if you've worked hard for yourself and are stable not only financially but physically and mentally or emotionally) then you can have a marriage work out for you by choosing the right spouse for yourself. Plus, you're still in your prime years of life. Not too old where you'll die off before your children are grown (if you choose to procreate) and not too young to where you have no idea what you're doing or how to do it.

PeachyPie93 · Answer

I would say 30's you are more likely to be ready and smarter at that point. Also you should have lived a bit and got to explore to see the type of person you want to settle down with.

Nikki1989 · Answer

There is no right age. It is whenever it feels right.

SugarSugarplum · Answer

If you subscribe to the notion that marriage is to provide a stable home for your kids, then you want to do it when you're the youngest and most fertile.

If you're just getting married for the free sex, then who cares?

LadyBecks · Answer

I think it's different for every person, so you can't attach an age to it. I would think ideally late 20s but as already mentioned there are other factors to consider such as, maturity, finances, etc.

Crazzyyworld · Answer

in old days, people get married at 16. I think it's actually good age to get married in terms of production. but these days luxury financial support is emphasized so people fool around until they get a job and get married after school which is BS.

LazerBean · Answer

As soon as you are mature enough for it. The better you were raised, the sooner that will be.

Anonymous · Answer

Personally I say very late 20s - early 30s. But it depends on other factors like finances, mental and emotional maturity, etc

ritxi · Answer

I voted 20's but it's more important to check if this is the adequate person to live for ever, so it doesn't matter if you marry later unless you buy a flat together o have children without getting married.

Apple1996 · Answer

Early 20s so the couple can grow together. I got married at 19 and it was the perfect time for me and my husband. Even tho beforehand I never wanted marriage meeting him changed that

TommyMountainFigure · Answer

It's not about the age so much as the financial position, and of course meeting the right person!  Don't forget also, everyone matures at different ages!

SeriouslyNotSerious · Answer

No time, really. If everything's secured and stable, I would get married right now. But life happens, and I have to wait for that right time.

PBandJ_Nerd · Answer

People usually get married 25+ years. Old these days. But doesn't matter how old of an adult you are, anyone can get married at any age.

BetaBucks · Answer

Late 20s for guys, early 20s for girls. Maturity level is pretty well synced up with that age gap.

Passerby2 · Answer

in today's world ID say your 40s is a good age. by that time you're both mature and know life is shorter than you thought it was. And you also won't have that crazy idealistic notion of purity that makes so many young couples break up

msc545 · Answer

Never unless you enjoy the prospect of legal problems. 70% of marriages end in divorce. For men, this is a disaster. For women, this is often a windfall. This is why women file for divorce over 90% of the time.

mistermike · Answer

I don't need women, sex, and children i rather have deep pockets and luxury items!

HawkPerception · Answer

I would say ideally in your 20s if you have your financial situation sorted.

strangeatcircleK · Answer

Ideally, 20s so you have your whole life together but in terms of maturity 40 makes the most sense  Really, it's the time that's best for you as a couple

Wiredone · Answer

It depends on your career, finances, relationships and maturity. There is no perfect time for anyone. Some people shouldn't get married until their 30's. Others can get married in their 20's.

genericname85 · Answer

20s. cause in your 30s or 40s, you got way more money to lose in case she decides to leave you.

RingOfFire · Answer

I'd say the best age to get married is about 5 to 7 years before you want to be divorced. That timing should work out pretty well.

standardguy · Answer

Yes 23/24 for girls and 25/27 for guys. But it all depends if there is financial safety. At least one of the two should have a good job to be able to have enough money for both partners.

Ladsin2 · Answer

Younger appears to be better. People can build their lives together. When you’re older both people have their own lives and therefore it’s harder to build one together.

OhLongJohnsoning · Answer

If you even want marriage I don't think marriage is necessary to be happy It's a religious institution, brought on by the government But, that's just me, you do you

TacosRAwesome · Answer

I'd probably say mid 20s to mid 30s for either gender.

exitseven · Answer

I just turned 25. It just seemed like I was ready.

DrPepper12 · Answer

LATE 20s to mid 30s. Your twenties are for finding your bridesmaids/grooms, not your wife/husband.

Starrrboy · Answer

Just marriage? literally any age. Marriage and having kids? I think 25 and up considering this time and age..

OtterMan68 · Answer

mid to late 20s: after your career is established.
