Of an age suitable for marriage, especially used to refer to a woman at the beginning of her childbearing years; nubile.
For most of recorded history in Asia, Africa, and Europe, men could be considered marriageable at 14 years and women at 12 years, although usually both parties had to be physically mature enough to consummate the marriage.
The bride is usually between 12-25 years of age, traditionally; depending on where and when the setting is, a bride 18 years of age can be seen as too young, too old, or perfectly marriageable; Ancient Greeks and Ancient Romans and Ancient Hebrews, like much of Africa and South Asia today, wanted to marry their daughters off before she gave into physical temptation and had sex before she was married. Vikings, on the other hand, preferred a bride closer to age 20, in full bloom.
The groom, on the other hand, can be any age from a few years younger than the bride to roughly her age to at least a decade older than her.
Until recently, the quinceañera and sweet sixteen parties marked a young woman's entry into adulthood and marriageable age; now that so few women are married that early, both have lost some meaning and degenerated into excess.

Betting someone half your shit you'll love them forever.
After pressuring me into marriage, Kendra now tells me that after 4 years she no longer loves me. So she gets to keep my house, my car, and my boat. I have to totally foot the bill to raise our children, and if I behave she'll let me see them every other weekend.

It is when two people come together and choose to do what is best for their unit over each individual. Marriage is a legal contract that two parties make with each other and there are penalties for not continuously working on the marriage like you would a garden. Weeds will come in and plants will die if you don't water the garden. Same with a marriage. Both parties must work to keep each other happy and treat each other nice regardless of what tough times they are experiencing individually. Life is no longer just about you, it is about the team. When this happens, you will know you are in a real marriage.
We are in this marriage for the long run so we don't worry about the little things

Instead of paying full price at the strip club, Jim used marriage to setup a payment plan.
