Did you marry young?

We started dating when we were 14 and 18 and got married three years later. We're happy as can be. 🩷🩷

@CleverGirl I know two women who courted from 14 or 15, then married young. They both eventually divorced. One told me she grew to resent her husband as she got older because he'd effectively denied her those years of experimenting and experiencing life, love, sex, disappointment, joy. She felt she was too young and she shouldn't have married as a teenager, despite thinking at the time that it was what she desired. Her husband was slightly older, so she felt he should have been more empathetic and allowed her to live out her younger years without taking her as his wife. I know many will disagree with that, but I wondered what you thought and if you ever feared you'd develop a similar resentment? I'm glad you're happy and I wish you continued happiness.

@Richard65 Everyone isn't the same. Nothing was denied.

@CleverGirl not actively denied, but denied through the circumstances of being married early. She meant she was unable to experience relationships and boyfriends as a natural rite of passage. That was her feeling, but I appreciate it isn't yours. Thank you for answering.
