If you are really so deep in love that you feel you just have to get married, then wait, real love will wait, if real it will be here in 4 years, in 18 years, in 50 years. So dating for a few more years does not take anything away from the relationship

Waiting will enhance the marriage, because you'll be more mature, more prepared, more knowledgeable of one another and your individual characters and foibles, etc.
You don't want to rush into marriage seriously, usually that ends with rushing to get back out again, take it slow enjoy the view.

At sixteen, worry about your Sr. Prom Gown, not marriage.
My wife and I married at 18 and believe me when I say we were way to young then.
We have been blessed and we are still together 45 years later, but we are the exception not the norm.
Please wait, finish High School and College. Learn who you are and then learn about your intended.
Married life is a tough life, it is not for the faint of heart.

Don't do it. Most people don't really know themselves until 30 and that's just a maybe:rolleyes:

My friend got married at 20 after dating a guy for 6 months.
Now she's 22 getting a divorce and has been single the past year...
Do yourself a favour and wait. Its not worth the trouble. Get engaged if you feel the need but don't marry

I'm 20 and I'd rather move to another country by myself with only $5 and a bag of clothes than marry right now. That's an awful Idea.
