dear internet,

i've been married three times in my life.

once when i was 16, and that was a complete disaster.
second when i was 19, and that just didn't work out.
now, i am 27, and married with a child, and this is completely different from any other relationship i have ever had.

my question is, what is your opinion on marriage? have you ever thought about it?

    well, nothing applied here. I don't believe in marriage, I believe in commitment sure but I don't think that entails marriage. and I don't think anyone is ever ready to make that commitment, I think you get ready while you're making it... then again, what do I know.

    I think that if you want to make the commitment that marriage entails, that's great. But before you do you have to know yourself really really well, and nobody does before they're at least in their 20s. If not older. I know I don't, and I'm almost 25 and have always been pretty mature for my age. God only knows what a mess up I would have made if I'd married the guy I was with when I was 16.
