Why Wait?

T

here is a lot of information about the best age a person should bewhen he or she gets married. For most states within the U.S., the marriageable age is 18. Could there be a perfect age to get married? Some people feel they should wait until their career is established. Others may wait until they are able to generate more income, experience life or when they are mature enough. Bottom line: there is a reason and that reason could cause people to marry later in life.

During this month, take some time to reflect on the reasons why you should wait especially if you're thinking about marriage. If you are already married, reflect on the reasons you waited to get married and maybe you can provide guidance to others who are in the decision making process. The perfect age to get married is the age you are when you get married.
