What do you consider marrying young?

[mrplunkey]

I have a totally different opinion than most here, but I think getting married young is the key to staying married.

You need to get married before you get set i your ways. Develop habits and hobbies together.

You waint until you are 40 and you are fucked. Your best friends can hardly stand to be around you much less your girl.

I've never thought about it like this, but it's hard to argue with that logic.

But the counterargument there is with free travel, an ever-shrinking world and Internet options, it might be easier to find that perfect, set-in-their-ways chicka.

This has a certain logic as well, when you're older and settle in you have your habits and a lot of people take the "take it or leave it" approach, if they dont find someone 100% perfect who also finds them 100% perfect they'll pass... which is ok if you wanna stay single for good, but when you do want a family it's harder....
@Feedz, fuck that I didnt know you had to buy your own damn dress.... every time someone in my family or friends get married they pony up the dresses...

I think who buys the bridesmaids dresses just depends on whether the bride and groom can afford it or what the tradition is in that family, because I know some people who've had the bride pay for theirs.

This one last weekend I had to buy the dress which I think was actually like $189, then $48 for alterations on the dress, then she wanted us all to wear gold heels so I went and bought those for however much...and had to buy all those gifts on top of that. She's lucky she's my best friend, that's all I have to say.

Doesn't the couple to be married pay for crap like that?

Bridesmaids pay for their own dresses, etc?

The tradition i have is when people i know talk about marriage i tell them to STFU

I was a bridesmaid over 6 times in under two years...the last time I was a bridesmaid I promised myself I was never going to say yes to anyone ever again. Only two of those girls paid for my dress. LOL

One of my wife's sisters got married like 6 months ago...Bitch tried getting my wife to pay for the stupid ass dress. I naturally told them to fuck off.

do you even get to pick the dress or it's what they want? was it the friend with the weird discipline thing?

I also got in trouble with the wife because I wanted to give them an IOU as a wedding gift. Basically, it said that if they made it to 5 years of marriage I would buy them whatever they wanted.

They're already talking about divorce. lol

I'm not saying everyone should be out looking for their soulmate, but if you into life thinking "I just want to get laid," you are really closing yourself out from a lot of options. My philosophy is just take what life throws at you, and see where it ends up, don't exclude any possibilities for yourself.
