I was 23 when I got married and am now 25. Though I feel as if 23 might be too young for most people, I have been with Jason since I was 18 and have never wanted to date others. I could not be with him if I did not feel that I could also be independent and complete my education, as well. I never wanted to have to rely on someone else for support--I have wanted to be able to contribute and be able to be on my own if anything were to happen to us.
I feel that though we are two completely different people, we have grown and matured together. He brings out my best qualities as I hope I do for him. He makes me want to be a better person and I believe that is what marriage is all about.
