Millstones at such a young age

Removals in Edinburgh
We live and work In Edinburgh (Unlike some)

Recently I did a small removal for a young couple who had just got married, they must’ve been about 20 and seemed very green and  innocent, both students studying at Edinburgh university and not really that street wise – got me thinking ..why do people do such things at a young age having not experienced life in any shape or form ? or more importantly experienced different relationships, a must if you want understand how other people live, think, work - you know getting to know life and its mechanics.

I predict it’s going to be a hard future for them staying together, what with university studies then possible career related conflicts- moving in opposite directions etc. I suppose they have moved on from their home towns but sticking together for life, that I very much doubt. They will soon get bored with each other everyone does apart for the kidders out there… how can you be interested in someone at such a young age and keep it up till death do us part - throughout married life?
I would understand if they were bog standard small town hill-billys (sorry hill-billys) ‘’all our family live within 15 miles/minutes of each other’’ call up canon fodder that doesn’t know any better and all the extended family do the same going back generations, but these individuals are actually using their brains for study and looking to expand horizons, seems total madness to get married so young and commit to each other – I give it 2 years, hopefully they don’t have millstone-kids, then that will be an issue…. sticking together and both putting up a false front of happiness with ''kids are great'' and all time classic ''best thing that evey happened to me''  total whitewash mind numbing from the proud dad book of guff  - but secretly both hating it and longing for the when we were free past, Imagine living life like that!!
