I mean... under the circumstances (war) I guess it makes sense why you would marry someone from your high school and not travel the world and experience life first. (not that nobody can do that in life, it just seems that everyone does in HP, again, because it's set in war times and everything becomes much more immediate)

That being said, I think Lily and Severus are soulmates. But I wouldn't want her to marry someone that mistreated her. And neither did she. But if it wasn't set during a war, Severus would have time to work out his issues and they could've met again later in life.

I'm not sure. I could never understand why Lily married a "jock" but possibly he was more than that (James).

If we're talking most compatible, I actually see Lily with Remus much more so. Scarred bad-boy Sirius also has some similarities to Severus.
