When did you get married?

I know this has probably been done before, but I'm curious as to know when NSC'ers got married, or if you're not hitched, when you think a good time to do so is? Reason i ask is that two of my good friends have just got engaged. Mad if you ask me, but I am 25 so I guess I'll have to start thinking about it some time soon!

What about YOU?

I got married when I was 27, and my wife was 26, but I'm no great supporter of marriage. People shouldn't think about it because other people they know are getting married.

It should be a personal (i.e. between two people) decision only.

I was 28 and pretty much the first one of my mates. A couple of blokes I went to games with years ago got married very young and divorced quickly but then one of them's now happy again with a lovely kid. There's no right age, just the right person.

I don't think you should fall in love with the idea of "being married".

You should only do it if you meet someone so special that you can't imagine not spending the rest of your life with them. If you have to think about it or aren't sure then you probably shouldn't be getting married, no matter how much pressure you're being put under.

I'd rather be on my own than married to the wrong person.

Great advice and very very true.

twenty-five. It seems very young now when I talk with nieces and nephews of the same age. But it wasn't something I was actively looking for at the time. It was just the right thing to do.

We met when we were 13 and 12;

went out with each others friends until we were 17 (often as foursomes);

first official 'date' was her 17th birthday party;

got married at 23 / 22;

we now have 3 kids (14, 12 and 8) and have been married nearly 17 years.

29 had been with partner for 9 years, and had lived together for 3 years of that.

2 and a half years ago, and still going great.

Marraige dosent change things at all in my opinion.

Was 24 when I married Yorkie in 1993 and I love her more now than I did then .

To quote Motty (?) "It just gets better and better".

As has been said, don't marry the person you think you can live with, marry the one you can't live without.

A lot of my mates waited longer than me and married in their early 30s.........with the exception of 1 all are now divorced.
Age is not important...its the person you marry that counts.

There is no right time, you are never financially ready, just make sure it is the right person, that is the main thing.
Remember no more shagging other people, its one for the rest of your life.
