I think too many people get married too young and that turns them off on marriage.

I was too young at 31 years old and the marriage didn't last. Fortunately I was old enough to know that there was nothing wrong with marriage and am now happily married for good, for better or for worse.

I got married at 19. Still am thirty years later. Nobody ever interviews me.

People are not maturing fast enough and are not marrying soon enough IMO. After a while, people don't see a point in getting married and they do their best to justify that decision.

I was married at 21. Just celebrated my 30th anniversary.

A long marriage depends on the individual's maturity level and what they actually expect out of another person. You need some breathing room in a relationship. If your entire happiness revolves around another, you will suffocate each other.
