Re: If your parents were married, how old were they?

Mom: 19
Dad: 23 (1 month shy of 24)

They were married for 16 years when they separated and finally got divorced after a 22-year separation.

So I guess they were technically married for 38 years but really only 16.

Re: If your parents were married, how old were they?

Wow!! This post is making me realize how much older my parents were in comparison to others. I guess in the 70's (or even 80's) it really was strange to have someone married for the first time in their thirties.

Re: If your parents were married, how old were they?

OMG how sad is it that I dont know?? I think my mom was 22 and my dad was 33 ( it was his 2nd marriage) they were married for 17 years.

DH's mom was 20 and my FIL was 33 ( yup big age difference) and they are still married 34 years later.
But she was 14 when they got engaged Chat Icon

My DH's parents were older too- his mom was 35 and his dad was 37 when they got married in '68. My own parents had already been married for almost a year at that point. They were 20 and 22 and will celebrate 38 years next month. I can't imagine- I have only known DH for a little more than 2!

My Mom was 34 and my Dad was 32 when they married in the late 70s. My Mom was quite content being single (she had been propsed to twice before) and my father was previously engaged a couple of years before. My parents actually had been broken up a couple of weeks when my father asked my mother to dinner for his birthday and she was nice enough to say ok and he proposed. Still married ( I wouldn't say happily, but I wouldn't say unhappily either - depends which day and who you ask ! LOL!)

Mom- 23

Dad- 24

They were married in 1964 and that was a bit older for then. They were very happily married until my mom was hit and killed by a car in April of 1979. They were married for 15 years. I was 8 and my brother was 5 days shy of his 5th birthday.

My Dad went on to remarry twice after that. Neither marriage worked out.
