Am glad you've finally found someone you're compatible with.
In terms of getting married after graduation from an institution, it mostly applies to girls. There are a lot of complicated facts that parents put into consideration which the most common is age & child bearing.
Well, the opposite is the case for guys. In most cases, when a guy graduates from a higher institution, his sponsors/parents will cease to support him financially with the intention of pushing to secure a job.
In all, having a family that supports you in strength and weakness is a blessing. Those born into a broken home can relate.
