I don't understand why so many of you are against it, you should experience it before judging; getting close with people and getting to really know them, spending time with them, laughing together as boyfriend and girlfriend or simply dating is so enjoyable, why would so many people do it if not?
I'm not sure whether most of you are Pakistani and Indian? that seems to be primarily the culture I see on here, but in New Zealand and other western cultures, its the norm to be in relationships from aged 13.
Marriage proves nothing and people in my culture repeatedly break their vows anyway so it just isn't successful judging by our divorce rates.
getting married before you date seems foolish since you don't even know the person, how can you judge that you want to spend every moment of your life with this person??
