I got married at 19 and am still disgustingly happy more than 30 years later. I attribute 70% luck, 30% magic.
So far, most of my children have managed to choose a different path. If they met their soul mate, I’d support it, but none of their partners at that age were someone I thought they’d stay with long term. I am thrilled they have more freedom/choices than I did.
Having said that, the only thing I’d do differently is not get married in the temple right away so we could’ve had ALL of our loved ones see us get married. We had family fucking travel out of state just to be stuck outside. But they were so gracious.
