I'm 18. Cus being engaged doesn't mean you must get married like the same year or something. You can wait a few years. Being engaged is just a stronger commitment and I really want that.     This is very true. Being engaged shows an intent to marry. It doesn't mean you have to get married right away. Precisely. And I forgot to say that if you have a plan to get married with him/her some time in the future anyways, getting engaged just shows you're serious about the whole thing, not just fooling around. Chiefette Posted at 1:00 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 That was our main consideration when we got married.  My husband already had a career going, and I had a good job.  I was in school, and we had originally planned on waiting til I was out of school, but we ended up only having a 9 month engagement. LoveKay Posted at 12:58 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 I wouldn't care when I got engaged. It's how long I would want the engagement to last. Depending on what our situations are like when I get engaged, I would want to wait until we have our careers started until we got married. Narfled the Garthok Posted at 12:25 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 Engagement (which doesn't really matter to me as it is a very light term young couples throw around these days as some sort of symbol to show undying love) and Marriage in my late 20's as I want to live the best years of my life unhinged, then I will settle down. See Me Now Posted at 12:18 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 For me, I would be comfortable being engaged as early as 18, no marriage until 20, then no kids until I'm done with school, around 26 or so. All of this dependent on me being with someone I would like to marry. I mean, I'm 19 in two weeks, and have no plans on getting married, but my parents were engaged at 18 and married at 20, and it worked just wonderful for them. Chiefette Posted at 12:17 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 I got engaged at 18.  Married at 19. BubbleCake Posted at 12:11 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 Mid 20s. Natsy Posted at 12:03 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 never IamImperfect Posted at 12:02 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 For me, I'd say 24 for engaged, 25-26 for married, then 27+ for having kids. I want to start having kids before I'm 30, but I also want at least 6-9 months for an engagement to have time to really make plans and prepare for marriage. Then I want to be married a year or two before having kids to allow time for adjusting to married life before a child is added into the equation. Tavis Posted at 11:59 am on Jan. 6, 2009 23ish for marriage. Children once you have settled jobs, which in my case, would be 28 or so. 11Adrian Posted at 11:59 am on Jan. 6, 2009 19 or 20 engaged and 22 to 23 marriade Chiefette Posted at 11:58 am on Jan. 6, 2009 Quote: from MaryLin at 2:58 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 I'd get engaged right away if my boyfriend asked me...
