Is getting married at 18 (when just legal (here, anyway)) too young?

Assume the two have been together for about 4 years.

Please elaborate your thoughts.

Anything under 25 is too young in my opinion.

You're just becoming adults and moving out into the world. Too young , but if you really love eachother go for it. My opinion shouldn't matter you aren't marrying me.

its not to young

but you gotta be smart about living by your own house...

if you can afford it sure it dont matter, but dont expect anything "big of a  marriage", since your only 18(or are you rich?) haha

but yeah really being in-love has nothing to do with age..  


so i say, THINK ABOUT IT SOME MORE if you both decide - yes then do it!

I think that it's way too young. You'll be changing a lot in the years after high school and might not still be as compatible after that.   At 18, you should be just getting out on your own, not depending on another person. People who are married before age 21 are less likely to finish college and the divorce rate is about three times higher. And it's just too early to make a decision for the rest of your life, if you ask me.

Well, if they're truly in love and have the financial means to live with each other, why not? They're adults and have every right to get married. My parents got married when they were 18. But that's because they were going to flee the country, but that's another story lol.
