TheFinalWord Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 I don't know what field you're going into, but if you're going for your PH.D, I would imagine you would be smart enough to know when a man doesn't love you enough to MARRY YOU. There I said it. Aww cut her some slack guys. Don't be mean. There are a lot of misconceptions about PhD. PhD means you are trained to analyze data from a scientific perspective. It doesn't mean you know everything about love and relationships. Most of us think very linearly/sequentially (esp. if you're a quantitative researcher). This can make for a good researcher; but can cause problems in other areas of life. There's pros and cons to everything. The main thing you learn from a PhD is that you know very little at all 'As our circle of knowledge expands, so does the circumference of darkness surrounding it.' — Albert Einstein.
turt Posted February 18, 2012 Posted February 18, 2012 26 is too young to be married these days & 30 isn't that old. Honestly, every friend I got that married <30 is either miserable or divorced 10yrs later. If she wants to get married & he doesn't then end it. but don't just rebound onto any guy who will marry. ^This^ Did you ever ask him why? If you're demanding to get married he is likely not to tell you his thoughts. You need to communicate with him or it isn't going to work out. Did his parents get divorced?
Oxy Moronovich Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 26 is too young to be married these days & 30 isn't that old. Not if you live in the South or Midwest. In those areas it is common for women to get married right after high school or college. In other areas women take a little longer, but before they reach 30, they're already husband hunting. In suburban and rural U.S., people still get married early.
Woggle Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Not if you live in the South or Midwest. In those areas it is common for women to get married right after high school or college. In other areas women take a little longer, but before they reach 30, they're already husband hunting. In suburban and rural U.S., people still get married early. And then these women hit 40 and all of a sudden want to experience the single life and resent their husband for stealing their youth. It is much better to marry around 30 or at least late 20s. 1
KathyM Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 26 is a good age for getting married. If a woman wants children, that will need to be late 20s or early 30s before her fertility rate goes down around age 35. I think 26 is the average age for women to get married these days.
