A lot of people say that getting married early is a “bad idea,” as if it means you’re somehow “missing out.” People love to rush to judgment about two people who decide they’ve found “the one” at a young age and don’t care that they’re a little younger than average when they did it.
In the past, it was normal for women to be married before they were 20, or even earlier. The standards of society have changed, and now it seems like anyone who gets married before 25 is considered abnormal or irrational and foolish.
The stereotype is that people who get married young are old-fashioned, ignorant, and probably going to get divorced. And I don’t really think that’s okay, or fair. I think there are a lot of great benefits to getting married young, and I think that couples who tie the knot when they’re younger aged get a bum rap for absolutely no reason.
1. You grow with each other.
For most people who get married young, they’ve known that person most (or all) of their life. They know their history, their character, and the way they’ve responded to challenges.
2. You don't have much baggage.
When you’re younger, you’re going to naturally have less baggage than when you’re older. Collecting baggage is just a given when it comes to going through life.
3. You can choose who you want to be.
When you get married young, you’re still deciding the person you want to be and how you want to live your life. Therefore, you don’t have a lot of deeply ingrained habits, attitudes, and patterns that you have to change and adjust to make room for each other. Instead, your patterns and habits will grow out of the time you share with each other, rather than have to be changed for the other person. And the bond you form will only grow stronger.
4. You figure the stuff out early.
When you get married early, you haven’t spent a decade or two looking forward to how “perfect” marriage is going to be when you get there. You still might have expectations, but they won’t have the weight of years of hope behind them. That way, it’s easier to shoulder when life takes your expectations, spins them upside down, and smacks them into the sidewalk. You don’t have as much riding on them because you haven’t held them for nearly as long. That makes it much easier to roll with life’s punches, and learn lessons about life, relationships, and marriage way earlier than most other people do
5. Cheap weddings
You're young so guess what?? No one is expecting you to have a huge wedding. You're lucky you get to save all your money!
If you are getting married young do not let people ruin your moment, It is OK to be married young. You get to experience life with 'the one' how amazing is that?
You do you boo, don't let anyone take away your shine.
