18, to my first wife, though we weren't married at the time. Before that, I had engaged in every act possible without actually losing it.

Okay.........for those who are critical of getting married young: I was 17 and my husband was 19.

Do I recommend it? NO!! But in our case it worked. We had loving, supportive parents, and nearly 40 years later, we are still together.......4 kids, 7 grandkids.........all intact, and happy people!! Was it all easy going? Of course not, but what marriage is all smooth? I don't regret a thing.

Derrick: You will be a completely different person in 10 years. Come back to us then and tell us if your hasty life-long commitment is still that - a life-long commitment. What are the chances of your new, older personality and your wife's new, older personality being compatible? Pretty slim, if you ask me. People who marry during the teenage-adult transition phase tend to have the highest divorce rate, simply because the person you marry usually lands up changing quite dramatically as they enter true adulthood (something I admit I still have to do).

You're very perceptive. Our marriage did end in divorce due to financial difficulties. After half a decade of "marital bliss" the marital engine hit a rock and blew an axel. We tried separation, it was a sad and tearful moment before I drove away. We then decided to call it quits. If I wake up one morning next to her and discover this was all a bad dream, I will try to make it work on the next go around, because the unique thing about our marriage is that we really loved each other. (There's a recent movie, can't think of it's name, where a man who separated years ago wakes up next to his wife as if nothing ever happened, and discovered he was happier making the marriage work. I keep meaning to rent that movie.)

That's fairly close to our story too. We married when I was 20 and she was 15. No, it wasn't a shotgun wedding.

She'd told me back when she was 13 that she was afraid that her older sisters were going to have the whole earth populated before she had a chance, and she was quite serious about it. We had six before she was satisfied.

4 kids, 7 grandkids.........all intact, and happy people!! Was it all easy going? Of course not, but what marriage is all smooth? I don't regret a thing.

I feel exactly the same. Plus, we're working on our 42nd year together and we have 7 grandkids too! LOL.

Frankly, I'm inclined to believe that the young age is not so much the problem as is the input the "adults" give them about not expecting it to work. It becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Perhaps if they gave them as much support as they do doubt, there would be many more young marriages succeed.
