I agree that everyone is different, but I think that most people still have a lot of learning about who they want to be when they're 17. They may still need to "sew some oats" as well... While people's maturity level differes, I think the majority of people at 17 may not fully understand the concept of a lifetime commitment... Which is a bummer, because have you ever really loved as strongly as you did at 17?

The thing about marriage that I think a lot of people don't understand is that a couple will fall into and out of love many times over the course of their time together. I guess the real question, regardless of age, is; Will the couple be able to stick out the times together when they are not "in love", and will they find a way to fall back in love when they do?

But on a side note, I think getting married in order to save someone from a bad situation is a bad idea.
