AIBU that I am not too old.

[Lonelymummyof1]

So after a conversation with a delightful teenager, who asked when I was thinking about getting married because I am now apparently 1/3 of the way through my entire life ( charming I know )
It got me thinking I have never really thought about getting married yet.
How old were you when took the plunge ?
Now I know who I want to marry when the time comes just never seen the rush.

Married at 20
Still together 30 years later

Married at 26, we met at uni and had been together just over 7 years when we married.

Met when we were 17, married at 25. Now 31 and second child on the way.

Everyone is different.

Met at 24, married at 27. Surely age isn't really a concern though? It's more about knowing it's the person you want to spend the rest of your life with, whether you're 25 or 55.

Married the first time at barely 20. It was horrible and I divorce him after 5 years.

The second (and last!) time was at 33, although we'd been together awhile before that. We're now retired after raising 2 lovely boys. Life has had it's 'moments' but overall I wouldn't change a things. There's something wonderful about sitting together and looking back and remembering 'our story'.

You marry when it's the right person and the right time. And not a moment sooner.

Married at 33, 19 months after getting together with DH. Had our first child aged 34.

I really don't get this idea that marriage is so important. Legally, yes it changes things but other than that it has no impact on a relationship.

There is no right age and i don't think it's ever too late if you find someone you want to marry.

Yes, I agree.

37 the first time and 44 the second. Had dd at 43.

I'm nearly 37, single with a 3 year old. Actually believe I will grow old alone and all I ever wanted was to be in strongly solid relationship with someone who loved me and wanted children!!

I think I believed in Disney too much as a kid!!

I love my son, certainly no regrets there but it pains me that I'm a single mum and that we are not a happy family together!
