No dear, there is no set age to be married by.

So many factors....

there is no 'right' age, but there are 'legal' ages


because marriage means so many things to so many people

for some it is an obligation towards sexual relations(on the part of the female)

for others it is an obligation towards financial support(on the part of the male)

if we cant remove sex from marriage(which we obviously cant in this culture) , the question would become is there a right age to be having sex and Id say at whatever age one is ABLE to deal emotionally and physically with all it entails

that age is not universal,,,u just have to know yourself(and the laws where you live,,lol)


ALL THAT BEING SAID

I wouldnt personally marry until I was sure I could support myself and sure that my 'parnter' would be supportive of whatever dreams I were trying to pursue in life,,,

a lot depends on the maturity level of the people involved...Then again, some should NEVER be married.

As long as they are legal, there's no specific age.

When you finally wake up to yourself and grow up...
and I have absolutely no idea when that it..

My brother and his wife started going out at 14, they where married at 18, they are still married 22 years late and are still madl7y in love

Hmm I was married twice and both where disastress, sooo who knows..

..if two people are in love..why ruin it by getting married...spock ..after all if things go south it makes it alot easier to say adios,rather than the usual ..yea we're separated and i'm waiting for the divorce to be final blah blah blah..some would be quick to say well ya just don't know how to commit..no..i just know people and feelings have a tendency to change..and considering those odds ..i just play it smart.

..there are plenty who marry and cheat..now there's your lack of commitment and integrity..s'pose it's all how you look at it...smokin ..jmo

Legally, it's 18, but I think in some cases you can marry younger with parental consent.
