Am i too young to get married

I am 18 and my boyfriend is 24, we have been together for alittle over a year, and he asked me to marry him. I said yes, and my parents love the idea of me getting married. So you may be asking your self whats the problem, well I told my friends and the...

rest of my family members and they are not crazy with that idea, they all say I'm to young, I dont know what I want, I just wait longer, my parents are stupid for supporting me, I'm making the biggest mistake of my life etc... And now it got me thinking like why wouldnt my family and friends be happy for me, I love this guy with all my heart and I'm sure on his love for me. But I'm still alittle confuessed and I ask am I to young?????

There is no concrete answer. Nobody knows which is the right age to get married. What you can do is maybe move with him, try how life will be. The fact that he proposed and you agreed does not mean you have to marry within a week or a month. You may marry in a year. Maybe just try to get some experience on whether you guys can live together, stand each other, and still have time and motivation to run your lives. If everything runs just fine, I don't see a problem. After all, a marriage is just a formal document. With or without it, you can be happy and live together.

There is no right age to get married to the guy you want. I do agree that you parents are doing the right thing to support you through this. But the rest of your family needs to back off and your friends to. This is your choice that you want to make. I know there are teens that are your age that will marry to the guy they really want to be with. What you have there with him is love. No one can tear ya'll apart. You and your boyfriend want to do the right thing. You are doing the right thing to marry him. You could marry him in a year or two. There is not a mistake here. What you and your boyfriend wants to do is ya'lls choice together. No one can't make that choice for you. You and your boyfriend makes that choice forever together.
