[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think marrying late is a DC phenomena.  I feel bad for people in their 40’s who have young children.  It’s a great feeling to have an empty nest before you even hit 50.[/quote]

Great point.

It's also tons of being able to keep up with my teenage kids as we shoot hoops or do anything athletic.  Both kids will be out of the house before I turn 47.

Wouldn't change it AT ALL.

Sure, missed out on some happy hours and trips in our late 20s and 30s.  But the pay-off in the 40s was totally worth it[/quote]

But meeting my spouse in mid-20s, we still did tons of happy hours, travel and even a sabbatical and lived abroad before having kids in our early 30s. We were pretty heavy partiers, foodies together before kids---and our passport was filled with stamps.[/quote]

That's a good point.  It was the kids, not the marriage, that stopped us from the happy hours and the international travel, etc[/quote]

Yep. I'm another person who got married, then spent about 10 years traveling, going to concerts, etc. with my husband before we had kids. [/quote]
+1 from another PP who married at 25. We started having kids just after everyone else we knew our age were getting married.[/quote]
