Get married. There’s nothing better then maturing with your spouse....I was 20 and my wife was 21...that was 35 years ago wouldn’t trade it for the world.

Yep. Got married the weekend after my high school graduation to my wife who was 23 at the time. We had a number of people tell us not to do it. A lot of those people are divorced now. We are still going strong after 30 years.

We all wish that were universally the case. Today, that would the rare exception.

Unfortunately, in the present societal state (as opposed to 1949 or 1959) that has become almost impossible; Drugs, music, the internet and decadent TV programming makes early marriage failure virtually inescapable.
