[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My cousin's kid is about to get married in few weeks. They are almost 22 and make a sweet young couple and have been together for a year.

He is quite intelligent and just graduated with a good STEM degree and nice job. She is hard working, finishing up a bachelor's from a community college and works part time but barely average student.

They also have different race, religions, socioeconomic status and cultures. He is conventionally handsome and she is rather plain. His family is intact and traditional. Hers parents are divorced and one remarried. He was coddled all his life, she wasn't privileged that way. She attended school on financial aid but has some credit debt, he was on merit scholarship and has no debt. He is a bit immature and spoiled.

His family is supportive (after some initial hesitation) paying for the wedding and helping set up an apartment and all and for sure would be supportive in future as well. I'm hopeful for them as she seems like a sensible young woman but do wonder what are the struggles of such couples in long term? Only couples I know who made it against difficult odds were bit older and knew each other for several years.

They are too young and have but been dating long enough.

It is weird that you bring up their looks (mind you an older person’s subjective opinion, not the potential partner’s opinion!).

It sounds like there are risks to both of them, but it is their decision (and strangers on DCUM get no vote!)
