Not just being flippant, if you are mature enough to get married you are mature enough to wait 2 years.

The fact you think you must get married NOW shows you are not yet mature enough to get married without your parents consent. What do you know, sometimes the system works.

You'd have to look up the laws for each state, but even if you went far away to get married and then came back, it might still mean nothing in your home state.

Marriage really should be something done on the sly these days. We are not in the middle ages where it meant nothing but god could separate you.... your parents will just get it annulled.

The best way to get your parents to allow you to be together is to show them that you are a responsible and real couple for a couple of years till you are old enough to marry for real.

Good Luck!! xx

Your only 16 years old!Hun you have so much of a life a head of you i mean being married is great and fine and dandy but it takes alot of work

.I got married 3 weeks before my 18th birthday(i am 19 now and my husband is 21).I look back and say oh my goodness a what did i do,I love my husband dearly dont get me wrong and we wouldnt trade our life together for anything but I and my husband both agreed we did it alittle to soon and we've struggled for almost 2 years now.Marriage isnt easy ecspecially when your as young as you are theres tons of responsibility my best advice to you is live your life to the fullest before you tie the knot or else you and your spouse will be kicking yourselves in the ass.Like my mom asked me on my wedding day "are you ready for this" i knew i was because i had been with my now husband since i was 14 but if you truely love yourself and your boyfriend and love eachother your love will outlast ANYTHING i promise you even Time its self
