I ask this because a lot of my friends who are in the age range of 25-28 are getting engaged and married and I thought it was more common to people to be married in their 30s.
Everyone moves at different paces in their life however I thought 20s was more to explore and enjoy and 30s was for being more serious. That’s my perspective and that definitely doesn’t apply to everyone .

He started asking me out at 23, I wasn’t ready for something serious. We started dating when I was 30, married when I was 34. We divorced but remained best friends from all that history.
it depends on where you live ,in the south or small towns I’ve noticed people get married in their 20s or even as a teenager .,and bigger cities it’s more normal in your 30s .everyone is different but also some people like myself wanted to get married in my 20s but didn’t meet my person,
I was 35 when I got married. My 20’s were definitely not fun or explorative so once I turned 30, I was determined to make those years including my 40’s now, amazing.
I got married at 31. We had been dating/living together for 4 years.
Married at 34
I was 31 and my wife was 30 when we got married.
We had been together for 10 years and lived together for 8 already.
We spent our 20s partying and visiting lots of different countries. When we were both nearly 30 we decided to start a family and got married about a year after our son was born.
34 if I count correct.
Yup 36… I’m 43 now we’re still going.. it’s tough but we’re in it for all the right reasons.
I’m not trying to be mean, but a lot of the people I personally know who got married in their early to mid twenties are divorced by now. In certain circles, young marriages are certainly pushed. The great thing about dating while younger is you get the practice time to hone your interpersonal skills, figure out what makes you happy, and how to be an empathetic partner.
34 here. Too young.
35 when I got married but had been together for 17 prior. Lived together for 15 years and we got married when she got pregnant
I got married at 48. My husband was 40.
I (f) got married at 30.
I got married at 39
I married my first husband at 31. I married my second and final husband at 40.
Knows multiple people actually. The general rule was either focusing on education or career. Or relationships failed.
Either way finally got married with helps of friends and families setting them up with someone.
I got married in my 30s. It does seem to be a lot more common now than in our parents’ generation
Met my wife when I was 32 (speed dating). Married her when I was 35. It’s been as good as I hoped it would be ever since.
Meeee. We started dating when I was 30 and married when I was 33
I always said I didn’t want to get married until I was 30. It just worked out that I got a job with insurance and we had lived together for like 5 years, so we got married when I was 30, and still are many years later.
I got married at 34. But if I would have met my wife earlier I would when married her younger. But mid to late twenties is a good age too. I am 49. A lot of my single fiends around my age are know they are too set in their ways now.
Yep. We Started saying at 30 married at 33
I was 28, but that was a long time ago.
Getting married should never be rushed. You are foolish if you get married before you have established yourself financially.
Got married at 37…..
35 yrs ago.
I got married when I was 32 🙂
I married at 36 after being mostly single except for a 2 year relationship when I was 27.
My wife was definitely worth the wait. Our marriage is the best thing to happen to both of us and we tell each other that every day
