seichel, I believe that there is a pressure to get married ASAP since the girl and the parents are afraid the girl may end up single at <gasp> twenty three. Because of this whole ‘crisis’ (growing number of older singles) girls feel a need to ‘just get married’ lest they remain an unfortunate, unmarried single girl of 23+. I’ve heard of too many divorce stories that happened since the girl was ‘forced’ into the marriage because of this pressure.
I do not believe in girls getting married straight after seminary. I feel that a girl should first get some degree (or begin working towards one) and some experience in the ‘real world’ before diving into marriage.
But I do think the above causes pressure in others to try to marry as soon as they can.
