Holy shit, you're still around.
and yes, i believe that sometimes, there are exceptions in which people marry young and through some sheer miracle, they manage to stay together for at least 10 years. I doubt these people will stay together till their death bed, but there are of course going to be a few. However, in these changing times when finances are becoming more of an issue, a career path and independence from your parents is a must before undertaking marriage. I will probably get flamed to hell here, but the majority of people who marry young are not as educated as those who do not. This is probably because people go through college start focusing on moving out, setting a career and they are up to their necks in debt from college to even think about marriage. College grads who marry outside of college probably were born with silver spoons in their mouths and will probably not be very good at their chosen careers since marriage right after undergrad is the pivotal time in your life when you must concentrate on your future (and no I don't mean getting hitched).
Thats true and not true.
Ask a woman who put her career before relationships or anything else, paying for her fourth round of IVF and hormones and still no pregnancy...she might say she wished she had done things differently
You will never hear a man say that though, true

The OP is a dood. Besides, more adoption of impoverished American kids and less selfish IVF treatments would do this nation some good. Yea yea i know its just not the same if its "not mine". Women should have thought of that before thinking it was a good idea to be a careerist until their 40's.

It's always case by case. I know of couples who have been to together since high school and I just get the sense there's extra curriculur activities going on that help them keep going on. Overall, in this day and age in the U.S. where juvenile attitudes are extended and prolonged, I say yes, it's too young. They need to really ask WHY ARE THEY SO SURE THIS IS *THE* ONE? If they feel they are connected to that person through every bone and pore in their bodies and love them with all their heart, soul, and mind, then you just have to step back and let them do it. You can't argue with feelings like that.
I settled down too young and in my mid life crisis started wondering, why didn't I shop around more? I didn't have feelings like the afformentioned. I was merely comfortable. Why was I thinking this was it and there was not going to be anyone better I could grow up with? So many questions and issues come into play: economics, growing apart, sexual incompatibility etc.... But, there are people who think and act 50 at 15 who will absolutely not waiver from their opinion that they are right about every decision they make in their life. People in the U.S. HATE admitting when they're wrong and I think many stick it out just b/c everyone else is just waiting to pounce on them and say "We told you so!". People who married older would not give a crap and just go ahead and divorce b/c they don't have that I TOLD YOU SO looming over them. It's all about pride sometimes.
