How Old Is Old Enough For Marriage? by MyneWhite1(f): 7:18am On Oct 08, 2012
16, 17, 19, 21, 25?



Someone said - well, 19 is too young. I got married at 22, I have 3 kids and to be honest I blame my husband for so many things. No 1, I did not reach my full potential. For crying out loud I had 8As in secondary school!!!! in uni I was just ordinary and struggling. I love my kids and I love my husband, if I could turn back time, I would wait at least 4 years before marrying my hubby. To be honest my parents, grandparents, uncles and aunties asked me to wait but I refused and married with my big head. This is my story, others may have a different experience.

i do not believe there is a particular age for a lady to get married, it should depend on the objectives and aims of the lady. Different ladies are in different situations, some find love early, some have build careers and need to settle down, others are old and past child bearing age and just need companionship.

You are in fact very lucky that you found love early. If you are truly brilliant as you say, you should finish having children by age 30 and get an education, by 35 you should have gotten a degree and started a career. By 45, you should be way above your peers, socially and professionally, and you children will almost be independent. I have seen many women follow this route.

To be honest with you Nairalanders, once you you get your first degree, oya do not waist time, because it could be dangerous to wait a little longer
Re: How Old Is Old Enough For Marriage? by Nobody: 3:24pm On Oct 08, 2012
Ah, because you're regretting that you got married at 22 don't make that a Bad age for Marriage.

I'd say when you're ready. It generally varies. undecided
Re: How Old Is Old Enough For Marriage? by emenim(m): 3:25pm On Oct 08, 2012
Well, the truth is that mid twenties is very much appropriate for the women, because they are like flowers very tender and time do flies more for them.

If you're Blessed and you're ready why not, But if you wanna marry make sure you're financially Bouyant, Because it won't be nice if you called ur wife τ̅☺ Suffer it won't be Fair and the innocent unborn Children, Life is tough but those Kids Should Enjoy it even if you and I don'τ̅, And Make Hay while Sun Shines......Time waits for no One.

Age has nothing to do with marriage,it has to do with maturity,when a person is matured,without being taught it will happen naturally.most people feel that when they've a small money,next thing is marriage,a person aside finance,must be ready mentally,and spiritually.

Age should never determine when to get married but maturity,finances and readiness to take up responsibility should.

Exactly, but there should be age bracket, 25-35.
