I got married right after I turned 20. I am 22 now, still happily married, fighting is just part of a relationship. My husband and i have a fair share of fights, but that is to be expected. Just be happy for him and wish him the best. It is normal for family to have thier doubts and to worry, but I wouldn't worry to much, even though 21 sounds young... he is still a big boy and can take care of himself. If he thought he was making a mistake he wouldn't go threw with it.

nt realli...it depends on if he is mature about da relationship....cuz ususally 20,21,22 are clubbn and partyn years.....so if he realli down for her and he ready to lt dat go then......hes gud to go and even if he isnt let him make his own mistakes dats how he will learn to make better decisions about his life...

Yes! I am 21 and although I've been with my high school sweetheart for 5yrs I still learn something new about him every day and we have gotten through many trials together and grown with each other but a lot of the time some people just grow apart. I don't know how long they have been together but I'm a true believer of being together at least 3yrs before you decide to jump into that. The years between 17-25 are crucial changing years there so many new things going on and changing in your life than if you were 25 with a career and settled down knowing who you are.

there is no such thing as being too young to get married. but it is alot better to wait till they are at least in their mid 20's to get married. if they love eachother then whats the rush, y not move in together and seriously date and wait a few more years. i think you should ask ur cousin wat the rush is and if he really wants to go on with it then be supportive
