    I honestly don't think age matters. It all depends on the person and his/her maturity. If you feel you are ready to get married and realize marriage is not a game, it's serious and it comes with a never ending responsibility; then go for it. Most "adults" that are already married see a minor getting married wrong because they realize the huge responsibility and assume a minor can't deal with all that pressure, and yes, for some that may be true. I met my fiance online, and I'm not ashamed of it. Yes there are ALOT of perverts out there, but theres also people looking for love, just be careful.

    I just want to tell these girls that they're not alone.I don't think anyone should critisize you period.We all have our own opinions about things and I personally don't think it's smart to want to be emancipated just because they want to move in with an older partner.Remember these guys are legally adults, SOME feel once they've got you they can make you into anything they want you to be and theres no way out.However when you have had to grow up fast like myself you don't have time for the teenage drama. Your mentally an adult and that's what you want. As for gaurdians WE DESERVE RESPECT TO

    Wow, all you girls that are like 15 with 20 some-odd year old boyfriends, What are you thinking? The reason why your parents are hard on you is because you have twenty year old boyfriends. Where do you meet a 20 year old guy at 15 anyway?!?! If you were my kid, I definitely wouldn't let you out of the house to go "hang out" with your boyfriend. Do your parents honestly think that you're not having sex? You must be dang good liars with extremely naive parents. Don't you have better reasons to want to get emancipated besides your boyfriends conning you into believing they love you?
