I’m 25, about to turn 26 in less than a month, and the looming question persists: Am I ready for marriage? What is the right age for marriage? Does it hinge on someone’s gender, geography, culture, finances, health aspects or something else entirely?

I have been wondering about this question a lot, and while I acknowledge there may not be a one-size-fits-all answer, we can explore the possibilities.

This question poses a significant dilemma, particularly in countries like India, where an incredibly diverse culture complicates matters.

Before we dive in, it’s important to note that your perspective may differ from mine, and it’s 100% healthy to have multiple outlooks on this kind of question!

So, what is the right age to get married? Let’s decode it together.
