Not necessarily, my mother & stepfather got married in their 40's, they were together long before that though.
Furthermore, reasons specific to you notwithstanding, marriage is technically unnecessary.
Of course it is not. Until you are 30, you discover yourself and live your life fullest. After that, you can Choose the man you want and marry.
Yes for me at least
I want to get married at 21 latest 25
If I’m not married by 30 I would…
I just want to be a young mother
That's right 👍
For a woman it means your in line for the bus to box wine and cat land. For a man it means you dodged a bullet and are on the way to financial freedom and early retirement.
No. Being married to someone who brings out your insecurities and darkness is bad.
Bringing out insecurities isn't bad. Bringing them out and then abusing them is what is bad.
Bringing them out and then working through them together can actually be a good thing.
@Jamie05rhs Sure. I meant bringing them out and abusing them. When you're in a relationship and you feel more insecure and less confident than you were single.
Bringing them out and helping you feel more secure about yourself and confident would be a dream. I know my parents' marriage worked that way. Very lucky.
@itsalyssaagain 🥰
Not really. My plan is to finish PhD in next 1-2 years and then, being 30, focus on starting a family.
no its good, f*ck marriage, just stay girlfriend and boyfriend
No.
You can always marry me. Want to be my wife?
If you're a man? No.
If you're a woman? Yes, and your smv is going down throughout your 30's. Some cultures call women more than 30 left over women. Which is not bad if you don't want kids. Maybe one or two at most.
What a load of shite
How many older women are getting married? Remarried?
The rate is low. If you don't believe that, just spend anytime on TikTok where there is an endless amount of older jaded women.
Just because guys entertain them for about year, doesn't mean they're winning.
Not at all. Everyone wants to rush everything these days including marriage. I believe that's why divorce rates are getting higher.
That will be a proud moment for me because I will have achieved what I needed and its now time to go on.
Nopers. To me being in a relationship is just a bonus. Sure being single is lonely and so on, but I have nothing against it...
Nah. Honestly, the best years of our marriage have been in our early 40s. The late 20s and early 30s were kinda chaotic.
No, a lot of people get married after that. And if you don't want to get married, it definitely isn't bad.
Depends if you rejected good guys just because they were good and didn't like good things as many girls chase the bad boy then you did make bad decision.
I wanted a relationship but I just wasn't in the mindset to get in one I was just quite depressed at times but I'm OK now
Well that's normal sometimes you need to take break or just quit dating till you're ready
Not at all, for me as a single person I focusing on my education and enjoying a life of adventure, those that I know that are married really don't have the time as it conflict their schedules.
I wouldn't say its bad, especially in this day and age. I would certainly say that I'm behind the development curve as far as relationships are concerned, since I haven't even dated anyone.
I mean.. if you want to get married then it’s bad but if you don’t it’s not.. you have to see how you feel about marriage. I know some people who have no children and they are fine.
No it's not even though marriage is something you have to have
Thats better than being unhappy in a relationship or in a bad mariage.
For a woman, yes. Search for "female delusional calculator" to see if you are too "picky".
Lol I tried it just for fun but it's so stupid it's actually funny :D Or maybe there's so many obese men in America that finding one that isn't is an accomplishment in and of itself :D We must be living in completely different worlds :)
@Seinna It's not "stupid" , it's based on actual population numbers. Chasing Giga Chad is a losing strategy for females.
It's stupid because it says eg you have 5% chance of finding such a guy... but you're also about 5% chance or less. You're not competing against 50% of population (ie all females), you're competing against women who are also in that bracket which is a few percentage of the society.
So it couldn't be any less relevant, a girl who takes care of herself will always find a guy, even the crazy ones. In fact it seems guys like them the most. Also, the website doesn't ask for "chad" features... just height, if they're obese and how much they earn. And unless a woman is overambitious, she wants a guy who's a bit taller than her, not obese and makes at least as much as she does... oh and their race. Majority of people want to date within their own race and there's about the same amount of men and women in each race (with some exceptions).
This entire concept is so simplistic and derives completely wrong conclusions, it doesn't reflect on anything. Besides, men are still more likely to be single than women, it has always been the case... sure, a woman might need to lower her expectations but usually that's all it takes. But sure go ahead and lie to yourself, what do I care. I'll just laugh from the side :)
Sometimes being alone is better than being with the wrong person so no, I will not lower my expectations to date a <5'5 (my height), obese and unambitious man when I'm not one of those things.
Nope, I am still unmarried... I am currently single too
Same I'm single aswell
So whats your plan for your future?
Well I'm back from Canada after 2 years and in the UK. About to start my new job in a new city soon. I feel like I've junled around a lot to really establish a relationship I my 20s. I feel more ready for a proper relationship and learned lessons from picking bad guys
Well same here. Its difficult to find a good girl these days.
I am not sure where to find her lol
Dating sucks people are good at putting on a show and lying that they are nice guys
I agree with you. I think I would go for a friendship with a girl instead ;)
If you think of it logically, you should not do anything committing and life altering as big as marriage if you are not ready for it. The responsibilities and all. Better do it when you're ready.
Not at all. I’m almost 30 and I’m honestly super happy with being single. I’ll be more emotionally and financially prepared for marriage once I reach my thirties 😁
Nope, not at all. I even doubt I'll be married by 30 lol
No, do Not get married until you find a Friend you want to be with Forever!
That's funny to me because iv never had a friend I wanted to be with forever. Maybe once or twice a week forever.
@lucas262 😆
@DiegoO 🤣🤣 😥
Obviously you Totally Missed the Question and my Point! Marriage is supposed to be Forever. That is why it is Best to marry a person you Like, have Fun with, have things in Common and can Communicate with, which is the definition of a Friend!!
I don't understand what you mean. Why would that be bad? What am I missing here?
Im unable to have romantic relationships because I don’t drive
Why don’t you drive?
I have medical conditions that prevents me to operate any vehicles.
Oh I see. Well hopefully you’ll find a woman who’s okay with that!
The chances are slim but thank you
I suppose it's bad if you're a member of the church
Not a huge issue these days. Though if you're a chick and you want kids you should really get on it.
Nah I'm 29 it's kinda a tad late
Is that right? How so?
Well by the time I get a boyfriend I'll need to date him for 3 years atleaat
Hmmm. . . yeah, by the time you're in your late 20s you shouldn't need to date for as long before getting married as you'd need to if you'd met at say 22.
Really why do you think this
Because by your late 20s you know yourself a lot better than in your early 20s AND you're able to get a sense of people much faster because you've had nearly 10 more years of experience.
It's the same with sex. Early on it's normal to wait months and months before getting into sex. Later you're usually making that move after a few dates or even sooner.
I've also experienced guys I don't want and stop going for looks. The best guys have been the average looking ones as they were more down to earth and way more interesting to be with. But yeah you are right I'm way more smarter than I was in my low 20s. I know the red flags now.
Looking forward to the goals I've set. Settle into my new job, new city
That's cool! What are your current goals?
Keeping fit I love to maintain a fit physique at the gym and to find a guy who's also into fitness
Ha! Nice--I'm lifting right now! :P
I'm 32 and not married yet either. I wish I was though.
girls are the only ones really concerned about that, age doesn’t matter for guys in that regard
For guys noFor women yesBeing divorced sucks for both
If you want to get married, why haven't you done it by now?
because generally men do the proposing, and nowadays, most men prefer to marry in their 60s.
According to social stigma yes... but really no... people have shit to say about unmarried people no matter what... better not to mind the noise..
20-27. This is the perfect age to get married. Beyond that it will be useless to get married. It is better to get married before the age of 28 at most.
why? because you say so?
After that we will not enjoy the sex inthink
If you are married by 30 actually that is bad
No it's not I haven't been married and I'm 32
No. Everyone has a different life path and timing is different for everyone.
Not at all. It's more rare because of the cost financial and emotional
Marriage is a scam. Its glorified prostitution.
Yes I think so (for a girl). For a guy 30 I’d like the ideal age
Well I it wasn't for idiots I could be in a relationship but I found out he was engaged with somone else the whole time what a waste of time
I don't care, being free is the best lol
Get your eggs frozen ASAP, they go down hill rapidly after 30.
no, they don't dumbass. most women have no problem getting pregnant naturally up to 38 or 40. they start going down hill rapidly after 40, not 30, otherwise why do women get menopause at 50 if they can no longer have kids past their 20s? what's the point of having periods for another 2 decades? nature is a lot more intelligent than your uninformed views.
@DianaWest yes some people online are quite thick in the head really
@DianaWest Just because a some people can do amazing things, doesn't mean the bulk of the population can or will. According to the medical science Egg quality for many if not most women does decline rapidly after your mid 20s really.
This does not mean you can't get pregnant but the odds become less and less. You should remember we evolved as a species who's in the wild life expectancy wasn't too much beyond 30.
@monorprise "according to the medical science?" let's see that science please. what is the source of your claim, or is it just your opinion? if you look at statistics Canada, the average age of first time mothers in the country was 31.3 in 2020. if MOST women in the country are having their FIRST child AFTER 30, and usually more than one child, i guess your "medical science" must have a bit of a flaw. most "medical sciences" that you see on the media were taken from the 1800s. back then, there was no electricity, anesthesia, medicine, hygiene, soap and water, etc. so of course most women had trouble giving birth back then. and of course, a lot of people can benefit from scaring women about their biological clocks. i. e. the egg freezing industry which asks for thousands of dollars from 25 year old women who are convinced in 5 years their eggs will be useless. do some women over 30 have fertility issues? yes. but how do we know she wouldn't have had the same issues if she was 20 if she waited till 30 to start trying? sometimes, fertility issues cannot be easily explained by age. there are other factors, including genetic factors, environmental, etc. so your number is closer to 40 than 30. i'd say fertility begins to decline more quickly in a woman's late 30s, so 38, 39. definitely not while she is still in her early 30s.
@DianaWest The Age of first child in the western world is a MAJOR problem leading sub-replacement level birth rates and decline the decline in western civilization as a whole.
This is from a long term point of view the single most significant problem of our time. If it is not fixed we simply will not continue as a civilization, our lands will be colonized by forign cultures actually able to grow who will eventually assimilate whatever remains of our people.
I'm 32 and have no intention of getting married
Nope I’m still single
It depends on if that's what you want or not.
It’s completely fine.
It's bad if you wanted to have children.
Nah no kids 🤣🤣 fuck that I want to keep my tight gym bod
Hell no.
I'll be 44 when I get married.
I never plan to get married. Is that bad?
Yeah the thought of being tied fown in your 20s no thanks I'm single aswell
facepalm
Absolutely not. Love has no time limit.
No you never have to get married it doesn't matter
I think it makes you smart.
Not at all I might even say it’s an advantage.
I will not be getting married ever
🤣🤣
You don’t have to get married
Yes. If that's one of your life goals.
Yes you are probably hitting your wall by then
