This past weekend my husband and I celebrated our one year anniversary. He surprised me and took me to downtown Cincinnati where we stayed at a very nice hotel called the Cincinnatian. When we went to check in I was amazed at the looks that I was getting by older couples because I am young. This also happened on our honeymoon. It is usually only the older couples that would give us looks. They look because I don’t look as if I am old enough to be married. I remember when we checked into our first hotel the day after we got married. I remember feeling weird because the only other people that I had checked into a hotel with were my parents. People judge too quickly and decide whether or not it is acceptable that I, at twenty years of age, am old enough to get married. I personally think that I married at the normal age. Girls who are still in their “teens,” I do not consider the normal age at which a girl should marry. I think that this is why the divorce rate is climbing. Girls are marrying at a very young age and they don’t realize the responsibility that they will have to take on. I am not saying that it is always the girls fault for the divorce rates rising. Boys are also at fault. They have only one thing on their minds when they want to get married, sex, lots of sex. Which is absolutely ridiculous, but unfortunately it happens many times.
