[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Don’t want to hijack the early 20s marriage trend thread but as someone who met my husband at 30 and was married with a baby by 34, I WISH we’d met 10 years sooner. [/quote]

But the thing is is you WOULDN'T have met him at 20yo. He wouldn't have been who he was at 30 and ready to settle down, etc. You would be with someone else if you really wanted to marry young.

That's why I always think it's funny to idealize meeting your spouse at a younger age. You would have met, being different people at 20 than 30, and may have dated but probably would have broken up for whatever reason.

Many of the qualities he had at 30 that made him a good partner he wouldn't have developed by 20 and the same is true for you. Maybe you could say you wished that at 20yo you wish that you'd met your[/quote]

+1 My spouse and I  didn't meet until I was 40 and he was 45.
We actually could have been together 20 years earlier as our paths crossed  a few times before. We're great together, and there are times when I have thought  about what could have been if those chance earlier meetings had turned into something. But it's likely it wouldn't have been so good we both had a ton of stuff we were dealing with 20   or so years ago and weren't in a place to make a relationship work instead of helping each other  we likey would have destroyed each other.

It's cliche but timing is everything and eveythingdoes happen for a reason.[/quote]
