I am doing a research project for college and was wondering if I could get some opinions on the topic of marriage at 1)a young age (17-23) or 2)marriage without living independently (going straight from parents house to spouses house). Any feedback would be helpful. Thanks.<BR>--RaeAnne<BR>

Rax,<P>Specific Questions are:<BR> * Do you regret getting married at such an early age?<BR> * Would you have waited if you were able to do it over again?<BR> * Has your marriage suffered because neither of you had an independent life?<BR> * Do you ever have the desires to just go do whatever-by yourself?<P>Thanks for your help!
