Absolutely it has to do with maturity.
I was pretty mature for my age when I was 20, because I had a 2 year old son, but I was still immature and not ready for such a commitment. Of course, I can tell my 20 something self that now.

In general, I don't think society views marriage as a sacred union. If we did, then we would marry for life, instead of thinking "well if it doesn't work, we'll just get divorced."
I know a lot of couples who talk to their pets with more respect than they do their spouse. How sad is that?

I remember posting this summer as I sat outside on my patio and heard a couple fighting in the building next to mine.
Both of them screaming, cursing, and calling one another names.
I was appalled by this, but mostly because that used to me.
How could I treat someone I supposedly love & cherish like that?
It was a very eye opening experience for me.
It made me realize that I don't ever want to be in a relationship like that ever again.

Sorry for rambling.....
