Spartan men were encouraged to marry at the age of 20. Although, if they were not married by the age of 30, it became compulsory. Spartan men were not allowed to live at their homes until they have finished the 10 years of military service, starting at the age of 20. In these ten years, if they were married, they lived away from their home and in their barracks with the syssita. When they turned 30 they went into the reserve, and could move home.
