I got married young, very young. We are going on 4 years of marriage now and seven years of being together. Marriage seemed like the right way to go. We went into this thing saying that we would stay together through hell or high water, and we have seen plenty of both, but we have always made it out alive. For the most part, it has been the best thing to happen to me. Sometime we both wish we would have waited a few years though. Neither one of us had much time to "sow our wild oats". But it is pretty cool coming home from work everyday and knowing that someone is there waiting for you and that she loves you. It is definitely a give and take kinda thing. You won't be able to change the other person, but you will be able to adapt and accept certain things if you truly love them. My only bit of advice would be to remain honest with eachother about everything. That was me and my wife's near downfall. She had told some "false-truths" about herself before we were married. These things were a big part of what I found attractive in her. Then, about 2 years after we tied the knot, I found out the truth. It came very very close to tearing us apart. But we had built so much other good stuff together, that it couldn't break us down. Marriage has its ups and downs, but it's a fun and interesting ride. Just make sure you have the right one with you for the ride.
