You Got Married Too Soon
As a general rule of thumb, you should get married if and when you are ready, and you shouldn’t let anyone else tell you otherwise. However, if you got married straight out of high school or college and are now starting to reconsider your relationship, then you might want to look at the results of a study from Nicholas Wolfinger, a professor at the University of Utah.
He found that couples who married younger are at greater risk for divorce compared to couples who wed in their late 20s and early 30s. Unfortunately, if you got hitched when you were under the age of 20, Wolfinger estimates that your divorce risk is at 32 percent based on age alone, compared to just a 14 percent risk for those who wed in their early 30s.
