[quote=Anonymous]I think marrying younger is better than marrying older, but that a successful young marriage (even more than any marriage) requires profound devotion to the institution as well as the intended spouse. Marriage is tough. It requires huge self-sacrifice. Kids, financial issues, employment demands, possible relocation for more education or work all add additional stress. Maturity and life experience can make these stresses easier to handle, but not all experience is helpful. Some experience can reinforce attitudes and habits that are antithetical to a successful marriage. Shared religious/social values certainly make a marriage more likely to succeed, but they are not guarantees. One of the strengths of a younger marriage is that the partners come over time to have shared a larger portion of their time together, as compared to people who got together later. [/quote]
