Too Naïve for Marriage

When my parents were my age, it was normal to get married because they were not stupid enough to get married just because they wanted to. Nowadays young adults get married just because they feel lonely and they want somebody to cuddle with at night. Our generation is so messed up that some of them get married just because they think that if they have someone special that is going to make them happy. Some people get married just because they think they are going to last forever and live happy for their rest of their lives. They think that is a fairy tale like how they make it look in the movies shown on the Disney channel. People should really think about what they are going to do because marriage is a huge step. Although there is no law that states what age someone can get married, I think that getting married younger than twenty-five can be a terrible mistake because the couple is probably immature, not stable and not committed.

The first reason why people should not get married younger than twenty-five years older is because they are too immature. Marriage is great, especially if it is with somebody with whom it is worth spending the rest of their lives. It is not a good idea to get married that young because most of the people of the age have not grown up yet. Most twenty-year olds want to party, enjoy life and have a good time, especially if they are in college. They just want to live it up and go crazy. People need a few years of experience so they can be prepared for marriage since they might be used to being single. Some men tend to have a hard time giving up the “single life” to commit to one woman. While others like to explore around and try different things and oftentimes they sleep around. For instance, Lester, who was...

...at he should avoid her but it was too late. That is why people younger than twenty-five years old should not get married because they need to be one hundred percent sure that they want to spend their rest of their life with the one person that they chose to marry.

Obviously, people who are younger than twenty-five years old are not going to stop getting married because oftentimes they actually love and care for each other. Marriage is not bad, it is just that people of the age should not be thinking of marriage unless they are capable of handling the responsibility of having someone to take care of. If an individual cannot take care of themselves without having their parents helping them out, the person should not get married. The individual is obviously too immature to look after themselves, and they are probably unstable too, since they have to depend on somebody.
