    Guilty...Married twice, divorced twice. First marriage, married young, he stated he did not want kids, i accepted that at the time, thinking he would change his mind, but he didn't, so we decided it would be best to part out of respect for each other, the love was there, and still is a place in our hearts for each other.....Second marriage, a nightmare. Still wondering if maybe the love of my life may still be out there.

    In Scotland where I was born and raised the age of consent is just 16, so I saw many of my school friends get married at that age , I was even bridesmaid to one....far too young!!!

    Agree; it's too young. But I think we were much "older" at 18 than 18-year olds today.

    we were that's true. The kids ''know''more than we did due to social media and the internet generally, but education isn't anywhere as good as it was when we were kids, and we were much more mature
