I'm 34. I was 22 the day of my first marriage. I was 27 the day of my second. I was getting married while all my friends were dating. In retrospect, I made no mistakes. Your understanding of yourself and your needs changes as you age. If I could travel back in time, would I tell myself not to get married? Yes, I would. But my younger self would tell me all the reasons he believed he should get married, and he'd do it anyway.

I don't know of anything more challenging in life than relationships (except maybe fatherhood). I don't really expect that to change too much. If I was sipping coffee with you right now, I would probably ask you why you're considering marriage. I would try to shine light on the deeper meaning behind the idea. What are your hopes? What are your expectations? Does your partner share the same ones? I would ask you about economics. I'd tell you that while I know that 'economics' is probably the least romantic word to think of when you're considering marriage, you need to take a hard look at it. I'd mention that if you don't think about it now, you will have to address it later, and it will most likely happen through conflict between you and your partner. I'd ask if the sex was good enough to last you....forever? And most importantly, is your friendship and interest in one another strong enough to carry you through times when you can't be intimate for whatever reason?

I don't know of any 'negative' effect of an early marriage to be honest with you. Your relationship will bring you pleasure and pain whether you are married or not. Getting married will give you tax breaks. If you have a lot of $ or some property, it would be at risk.

In the end, you have to feel open and uplifted when you think about getting married. It just has to feel like the right step to take at this moment in your life, regardless of what others are telling you. Best of luck~
