Reason is, you're an idiot.

On topic, first marriage at almost 31.... won't marry a second time.

I got married at 23. It lasted 11 years. I don’t regret it. I loved his family so much. But I married for potential, thinking if I loved him enough & supported him enough, he would get his shite together & kick depression. It turns out that doesn’t really work; it’s just codependent.

Even when things were going well in my marriage, 23 seemed insanely young to get married in hindsight.

30.

To be honest, i realized about 34 that i was at the age that i was best suited to get married.

I didn’t have a divorce or anything like that, just realized that i was still wanting to do single people stuff from 30-33 still.

Sorta finally hit a certain maturity point in my life at 34

Gotta be a tough row to hoe.

And then to think the guy you are e-crushing on currently could not be more of a flamer if he was sitting on the sun wearing gas-soaked flannel.

I was 21. Divorced at 26. Wouldn't recommend anyone get married till 30, or at least late-20s.

I was 29 and she was 25. We'll make a year in a couple of months


I never saw myself getting married until I was around 30. I'm glad I stuck to that because I would have picked a disaster in my early 20s. My wife is loving, supportive, level-headed, and is a great yin to my yang. I hope we make it as long as some of the posters in here.

27, then waited until 29 for kids. Both of us are the same age. Nice $$ saved us, bc kids are expensive as farger.
