Avril Lavigne Was Too Young For Marriage

On Thursday Avril Lavigne confirmed on her blog that she and husband Deryck Whibley are getting a divorce. A source close to the couple says that Avril was ready to move on from the relationship and find herself again.
"She married too young and she finally realized that," says a source. "Avril realized she needs her own life and needs to explore things without him."
It really is a shame that this young couple couldn't make it in Hollywood. For the most part, their relationship was kept out of the tabloids which usually means that things were good. But I guess in the end they decided just to go their separate ways on good terms.

I agree that's it's a shame. They were too young though. Maybe she'll come out with some more inspirational music or something. Maybe more mature. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Too Young or too immature? These two adjectives are not mutually exclusive.

Before the age of 25 they are the same in this context. No one should get married before they are 25. That is when the frontal lobe is usually formed and judgement is mature.

Yes... I am 22 and I could not even fathom the thought of marriage at my age even though I've had a boyfriend for more than two years. I am so young and want to pursue other things in my life first.

Being that I've already sent you an email on this subject and I've yet to receive a reply, I shall make my statement public. Vera, how long will you let this person continue to post on this site? This person continues to slam America in many posts. He/she is disrespectful, inflammatory and ignorant. Please do something about this. Thank you.

It is probably hard to censor the anonymous comments. I really am impressed by your tact in commenting on the fact that these types of comments have no place on INO. They are not only a little confusing but they are dripping in hate and quite unpleasant to come across.
I think she was just too immature. i married at 18 and have been married for 11 years now and still going strong. Never regretted marrying at a young age.

You are by far the exception. I wonder if your partner feels the same way? Usually, one or the other feels like they missed out on something by committing so young at some point. Congrats if it is working.

She's not my favorite person in the world. Maybe she'll mature a bit...maybe.

yeah they were too young but there's a few who can still make it. they are probably becoming two different people. that sucks she will now say she's divorce at such a young age.

She looks good in that picture, besides the hideous dress...
too young but not too immature.... lol
That's really too bad. I thought they were a great couple. I love both bands music and it just seemed so cute they ended up together. Punk love. I don't think she was too young for marriage, but it's her view that matters not mine. Not everyone is ready for the same things at the same time and marriage is a huge step to take. I also don't think she was too 'immature' either. After all it's not like it was a huge messy break up. They just realized that maybe they weren't ready for this part of their lives and split.
