The shidduchim-emuna thread got me curious.
How old were you when you got married?
For those who've done it more than once, I mean the first time.

Engaged at 19. Married shortly after 20th birthday. I didn’t feel young but I was really just a child.

Engaged at almost 18, married 4 months later. I didn't feel too young at all, I was totally ready.
I wouldn't do it to my kids though.

Almost 18 means 17?? That’s little!

I got engaged at 20 and married at 21.

I know right?!?! I guess I was super mature or something! I'm from the older ones in a large family so I knew exactly how to run a house and care for little ones.
Marriage for me was freedom. Imagine only having to care about yourself and 1 other adult? It was fun and liberating. My shana rishona was a blast.

You're missing an option of 31-35.

I got married at 23, which was pretty typical for my circles.

Thanks.
Does anybody know how to edit a poll?

I was 24, average for my circles.

I would group the age ranges differently - there's a big difference between being 20 and barely an adult and 25 and completely independent, with a graduate degree and a career.
