Marriage can be a tough commitment, especially when you're very young.

From infidelity to growing apart, divorce happens for many different reasons.

But for some people, the reason for divorce is largely due to getting married at a young age. So for those who got married before their 20s (or in their early 20s), we'd love to hear your story. Maybe the root of your issues stemmed from money problems that you hadn't discussed before getting married...

Or maybe, once you hit your mid-20s, you both just started to drift in different directions...

Or maybe, at the end of the day, you think you both didn't know what kind of partner you wanted to have and be when you first got married.
