My uncle tried to talk me out of getting married when I was barely 18. My step-mom said getting married was a better road than the one I was going down, at that time, so marriage was the better choice.
So I didn't listen to my uncle; I chose marriage, never experiencing the independence I should have. We only stayed married three years and I jumped right into another relationship afterwards, and have now been married for 44 years.
Although I'm very happy, I sometimes wonder what it would've been like, where another path would have taken me. Just out of curiosity, of course.
