I am 19, female. my mother is 56. father is 57. do i need to marry earlier??

my mother has been trying to train me to be more matured (as I am the youngest, kind a spoil), to do house chores and many thingswhile my father, who has always been proud of me, are giving me rules for every single penny he would give. and if I want more, I have to work with him (like marking his students test papers)the problem is my mother. she has been giving hints for me to marry. I have no one as a husband candidates but she tell me if I want to marry, she has one man in her mind. I ask her, why so early? she tell me she needs rests and time for herself (she has always been busy raising 8 child's and working as a high school teacher, for almost 25 years. she work damn hard). I understand that.then, she told me that marrying at my age could bring to mental depression (if I am not really ready) and 'that' things between a couple itself could be a trouble. I understand that because I am myself not meeting any boys (because I don't want to).actually, I'm planning to marry when I was 24-26. but... that is 5-7 years of waiting for my old and exhausted parents. and, I'm thinking of marrying someone who is 4-7 years older than me. please give me some suggestions/comments/advice. we all know marriage is not a game.

You're too young to marry.

I have heard that although you marry at the young age, you will get more matured after that. (I think this happens if only your husband is a good man)

True but maturity is being responsible knowing what you want to do, you don't mature because you marry but because you know how to live your life

yeah. agree. I don't know yet how to live my life...

You must learn about yourself more and love it because it's easy to love others if you know how to love your own
