Usually a man is ready to get married when they grow up.  They have a career.  They have a house, not a dorm, or apt, or Shack in the woods. And know how to treat a woman right.  I'm not ready for marriage I can admit to that.  I'm only 21, I do have a career as a Paramedic, but I don't feel physically, mentally, or financially ready.  Besides I have to have a GF first.

That depends on the Egyptian army rules. Your wedding might have to wait until his term of service is done.

No, not really. Do whatever your heart tell you to do. Sometimes spontaneous marriages work the best! This way you do not have a certain expectation of a person and you learn to love him for who he is!

Wedding Legalities \nIt is necessary to keep in mind that as a rule all marriages have to be compulsorily registered.\nThose who undertake a civil marriage (No formal marriage ceremony) marry under the Special Marriage Act, 1954, do not need to take any further steps because in their case registration is itself the marriage ceremony. But in the case of all religious/ceremonial marriages, and they are the majority in India, the additional step of getting the marriage registered with the registrar of marriages is compulsory. \nHowever, the non-registration of a marriage does not affect its legality and validity. Couples who do not register their marriages can be fined and any one giving false information to the authorities can be penalised with a short jail term. Even then it is always advisable to register a religious/ceremonial marriage because there is then proof of its legality and validity.\nIn matrimonial disputes it is not uncommon for one of the spouses to claim that no valid marriage took place. Religious authorities that solemnize marriages rarely maintain proper records. Once a marriage is registered with the authorities there is an assumption in law that a valid marriage took place. \n\nSPECIAL MARRIAGE ACT, 1954 Any two persons irrespective of their religion can marry under the Special Marriage Act, 1954. Conditions for Marriage. \n\nFollowing conditions are required to be met for a marriage under this Act:- \n\n(a) Neither party should have a husband or wife living. \n\n(b) Neither party is an idiot or lunatic. \n\n(c) The bridegroom must have completed 21 years and the bride the age of 18 years. \n\n(d) The parties are not within the degree of prohibited relationship. \n\n(e) Both parties should be citizens of and domiciled within the territories to which the Act applies. \n\nCeremony \n\n(a) Notice to be given by the bride and bridegroom to the Marriage Officer of the district in which one of them had been residing immediately previous to the notice for atleast 30 days. \n\n(b) Marriage Officer records the notice to a conspicuous part of his office and sends a copy to the Marriage Officer of the District in which the party giving the notice has permanent residence and it would also be affixed by the officer in his office. \n\n(c) 30 days time is given for any person to raise any objections to the intended marriage. \n\n(d) From the date of receipt of any objections within 30 days, the Marriage Officer should enquire into the objections. \n\n(e) If the objection is upheld, either party to the intended marriage may appeal to the District Court whose decision shall be final. \n\n(f) In case there is no objection or the objection is rejected, the parties with 3 witnesses sign in presence of the Marriage Officer declarations to the effect that they are unmarried and are not related within prohibited degrees and have completed 21 years (Husband) and 18 years (Wife). \n\n(g) The marriage is therefore solemnized in any form which parties choose to adopt. The form must have the following declaration by each party to the effect; "I take thee to be my lawful wife (or husband)." The parties and 3 witnesses then sign the certificate of solemnization. This certificate is conclusive certificate of solemnization. \n\n(h) The solemnization should be completed within 3 months from the date of notice and otherwise the notice lapses and a new notice will have to be issued. Civil Marriage by Registration: The marriage under the special Marriage Act is a civil marriage by registration.\n\nhttp://www.seasonsindia.com/marriage/specialact_sea.htm

Hi I feel some times dowry is necessary in customized countries like India.Unlike in Western countires where both M/F work togeather, here it is still a male who makes the earnings. So for a male a new lady entering their family will always be a burden on his earning resourses.\nI think this might be one of the reasons.

NO I DO NOT THINK YOU SHOULD GET MARRIED AT THIS TIME. YOU BOTH SHOULD FOCUS ON BEING INDIVUALS, AND SETTING YOUR OWN GOALS, THEN JOIN AS ONE. THINGS CAN GET VERY COMPLICATED FOR COUPLES WHO ARE TRYING TO HANDLE THEIR SPECIFIC GOALS AND TRY TO KEEP A MARRIAGE TOGETHER. GOOD LUCK AND GOD BLESS!!\n\nMSCHOCOLATE

You mean like meeting a guy, dating, getting engaged, and then marriage?  Or the actual ceremony itself?

No..No...and No!!\n\nDo not marry anyone under any kind of pressure.\n\nMarriage is about loving someone and wanting to spend the rest of your lives together not being forced down the aisle.\n\nGood luck.

Yes, because standards in today's society are not emphasizing the fact that you should be married to have sex. Everything is much more free-spirited, and do whatever you want kind of attitudes.

You'll just know. Besides, no one is quite READY for marriage, it's like having a baby--you have to know you want it and then plan for it. When that's in place it's trial by error, so to speak.
