1.4K opinions shared on Dating topic. Almost 24 and single. Should I be worried?
The simple answer is that at 24 no you should not be worried, its 100% normal and very common.
With that said, it becomes concerning when it starts to generate this level of anxiety, self doubt and insecurity. If you do not reign this type of thing in it will eat at you and burrow itself into your brain like a worm, and plant these little eggs that will hatch like maggots. Then you will start questioning everything about yourself, you're too fat, too ugly, too thin, or your are not sexy enough... that is how anxiety feeds insecurities and how insecurities manifest and multiple. If this happens then yeah, you're in serious trouble... good news is that you are aware of it and ahead of the game.
This will lead to you putting too much pressure on yourself, causing you to put too much demand on potential relationships or on yourself within any given relationships, and so on, and so on, until it becomes its own self-defeating circle.
So again I say, take a step back, take a deep breath... there is nothing wrong with you, its 100 normal and it is very common. Do not fixate on these things it will be fine.. stay confident and go forth and do great things.

+1 yWhat are your life goals?
What is your priority in life?
Having some busy, successful career and being a business leader or politician?
Is it having a family and marriage?
If you don't care about family and marriage and kids then you have no time constraints. Who cares if or when you date.
If you want to get married and have kids... you kind to need to get moving. You need to be dating and lining up a mate. You are at the prime of life now for having healthy kids and being fertile. Eggs get old and pregnancies get harder and have more complications in your 30s.

+1 yOMG the pressures of modern fucked up soiciety.
For God's sake... Having a boyfriend or girlfriend is not the primary objective of life. There are better and more useful objectves that take you towards a mich more successful life.
As for a significant other, if that is written in your destiny, it will happen, sooner or later.

@HaveNoName hopefully she gets your point it’s well intended I can tell!😊
Anonymous(45 Plus)+1 yYes and no. If you’re not looking to get married for have kids I think you’ll be ok. If you’re looking to get married and have kids then you may be pressed for time. I’m assuming if you got married, you’d want to meet someone, maybe date for a couple years then get married. Which would take you to about the age of 26. Then I’d think you would like to enjoy the married life for a year or two before having kids, so let’s say about 27-28 having kids at that age. You may be ok. But what about a career? You planning on having a career cause that could put kids on hold. There’s a lot to consider.

I do wanna have kids and be married im so scared it won't happen😞
Opinion Owner+1 yWell I’m not saying it’s impossible. I think the chances just get slimmer. Are you even talking to someone at least? Is age a big deal for you as far as on the man’s part?

Im meeting people at church and opening up more to people is that a good thing? And i prefer to date near my range. Its 18-28 years old.
Opinion Owner+1 yYes that’s a good thing. It hard to meet people honestly. But I think you will be ok. If I remember your pic you look very pretty. Just don’t rush things because you’re scared of missing out. Have you had a boyfriend in the past?
