Different strokes for different folks..

In my little "world" people don't get married until after college and landing a career, or at least a steady job. I can only think of a few people in my social circle back home who got married in the 21-24 age range, for most it was/is between the ages of 25-30. I considered the latter normal. When I moved to TX I noticed a lot of young married couples (same as when I was in the military) as well as the funny glance my way when people found out that I was 27 and had never married with no children. They thought it was weird I was 27 and unmarried, and I thought it weird that someone in this day and age would want to get married at 19. Even now at 29, only half of my peers from high school or college are married (thx facebook).
