The perfect time for both a man and a woman to get married is when they are willing to give thier all to the other person and be honest and truthful in all circumstances

You were not reading it in context. “Through no choice of my own” was starting a complete other sentence. So again, I don’t see the humour in that.

I believe having children is , as I ALREADY said, ONE reason. Not the only reason, of course. Obviously love and commitment. I would have thought that goes without saying. Good grief.

Through no choice of my own”. I thought the part about through no choice of your own that you are 35 was/is funny. Nothing about having babies.

Do you believe that having babies is a reason to get married? If a couple does not have children, then they should not get married?

Why is the discussions about when a woman marries based on her ability to have children? What about love, commitment, etc?

Why would you think that is funny?

You took my comments out of context. I said, “through no choice of my own I have had limited fertility.” Having limited fertility is not something I find funny at all.

Becoming a parent is one of the reasons to get married. Not the only one. Becoming the best marriage partner you can be, is a work in progress. It isn’t something that happens right when you get married, but is something that grows as time goes on. The key is patience, diligence, and including the Saviour in your marriage.

Don’t blame the women if they aren’t married by 27. And there really is no magic age. Women should not just get married because they “should” be married. Men carry a lot og baggage as they get older too. Women don’t have the monopoly on that.

I feel bad for women who are trying to start long-term relationships in this age range. The baggage that they carry makes dating much harder. I’m all for having fun and enjoying the single life. But ladies, try to be married by 27. You’ll thank me!

Well, maybe the same argument, but not really. I have always wanted a large family since I was a little girl. I have always wanted to be a mother to many children, even before I knew fertility would be an issue. Don’t ask me why, you think I would have learned my lesson since I am the eldest of 7 children. But no, I have always had the desire to be the mother of many. So age isn’t really an issue for me, nor ever has been.
