This topic seem to be very vast as different folks hold diverse opinion about it and also have a lot to do with the individual male or female is said to have the right to take or make decisions that pertains to how he or she wants to live his or her life.some desire to marry early to build their lives together,while others want to meet up with life demands before getting another person involved in their life's affairs.whether you marry early or not,you both need all it takes to make the marriage workout.and this open the podium for my question which do you prefer nairalanders share your views.

None

In Late mariage, the patner is xprience and maturd

M M M: None

Why none?

EARLY MARRIAGE LIKE THE GUY BEING 24/25 and THE GIRL 20-22 PROVIDED BOTH ARE MATURE PHYSICALLY,MENTALLY,EMOTIONALLY,INTELLECTUALLY,FINANCIALLY ETC

Early. It wil enable u to enjoy your children for a long time.

What is consider late and early? I think its best not too early or too late.

I like both

There is no such thing as early nor late marriages. There is no time frame when a person should marry and each marriage is tailor to the couple not the spectators.

BUMPS

^ Your view is very Non-Nigerian (western).

@OP, Definitely early marriage (girl should be between 22-25, the guy should be between 27-32).
All things being equal, it gives the couple ample time to be with/enjoy their children. You don't wanna be old and senile when you give birth to your first child. etc.

i think we should define at what age is marriage early or late before sending in our comments.

I agree to an extent. I married at 28 and that was late to me. I planned to do by 26-27. Some other person would consider 28 early.

From a combination of my religious and cutural orientation, anything above 30 is late (27 for a lady). But there is still an acceptable exception to that: lack of basic financial means.

then wait until you are 65.

wat if u neva had a car? Wil the girl agree?

A friend of mine who got married at the age of 19 has a 13yrs old daughter, though she is from the north.she is 32 now and maybe in the next 7yrs she should be ready to be a grandma! .marriage I think depends on when the suitor comes knocking whether its at the early age or late age.

M M M: None

Are you a monk or a nun?

d scale shuld b of a balance ie 50-50...

dependin on d persons choice

early marriage or late marriage doesn't matter,what matters is love and understanding between the man and the woman

Early for ladies and Late for Gents.....

Early marriage is no doubt the best as they will afford you enough time to support your children and watch them grow into the adult you want them to be.
I got married at 32 and was just too late for me but I only realised how late it was when I saw my younger sister's daughter who is 13 this year while my first child is just 3 years age,few years from now my younger sister will probably be nursing her first grandchild while my daughter is still in primary school.
I sincerely advice people to marry early if you are able to find that special one early enough,don't think twice oooo

from ur response, i infer dat u married late. Eeya, sori o.
Marrying early will help protecting fornication. Being young does not literally mean u are immature. Dat is y my fiance and I will be married soonest. Odunnu, i no go marry u o; go look for your husband elsewhere. Stop disturbing me with PM

Thank God I'm a guy, there's no pressure guys, unlike the female folks, as soon they are above 25yrs of age, the whole of their mind set would be on marriage. Another disadvantage for em is that, traditionally they won't propose unless their man decides. Well as for me, I prefer early marriage.

I don't seems to believe There's anything like early or late marriage. It depends on when You're aged, ready and balanced financially.

am 31yrs but need some basic things b4 getin married,though i av my wife to be

huh! What did u just say?

No comment!! Whatsoever!!

Pls should age difference matters when choosing a partner, I mean won't people see it as child abuse if a 28yrs old guy decide to date a girl of 18 with the hope of marrying her in few yrs from now say 3 or 4

I'd rather marry early than late.

I think the age you marry should depend on your level of maturity
