Young Marriage as a Way to Have Happiness

Getting married young is not a scary thing. Most people today Choo e married young.
According to Berita Satu, a person between the ages of seventeen and twenty-five years is the
limit of youth. In Indonesian law, a person is said to be no longer a child when he reaches the age
of seventeen and over. That's why in Indonesia, getting married young is not a problem. So when
you choose to marry young, if you don't need to have high expectations and it's relatively easy to
combine your life with it.
First, you don't need to have high expectations from your marriage when you choose to
marry someone. You just want to live with someone you love without much hope. Usually
people who marry young, they don't need something perfect for their life like adults who want
perfection. Living only with someone you love is enough reason to marry young. I remember
when one of my seniors in high school, he got married when he was twenty one years old. She
looks happy for her husband, even though her life looks simple because her husband doesn't have
a permanent job.
Young marriage apart from wanting to live with the people you love can also aim to
prevent us from adultery which is not allowed in religion or the state. It is undeniable that in this
day and age a lot of young people who have ages ranging from 17 to 25 are no longer virgins. All
of this can happen because of the lack of education about young marriage. Most young people
today think that marriage at a young age is scary because of lack of finance caused by not
working. Young marriages can be obtained and maintained as long as both parties always try and
be grateful because insha allah there is provision given by Allah for those who marry.
A young marriage is relatively easy to combine your life with. It's easy for you to learn to
put together musts, bits and lifestyles. This is why I say that getting married young is not scary
because we can get to know each other with more certainty. Things like this happen to many
people. Like my friends who chose to marry young and wanted to study together, learn about
their cultural differences because she was Javanese and her husband was Sundanese.
However, many young marriages fail because of their unstable and childish egos.
Something like that cannot be used as an excuse for a young marriage. Things like this can be
solved by understanding each other and lowering each other's egos. So it also needs parenting
about the premarital family, and mutual understanding of the nature of the role of each, both wife
and husband.
I believe being married young is not a scary thing. When we choose to live with someone
we love, then we will help each other to maintain the marriage. The difference will be a
sweetener in the relationship. Failure in a relationship will not happen if we have prepared
ourselves from the start. If we refuse to marry young because we are afraid of failure whenever
we are sick, don't marry because failure in marriage does not only happen in young marriages.
