Is it a bad idea to postpone getting into a relationship until you're older?

I just turned 26 and I'm single. I've put a hold on my dating life, I'm taking some time to work on my mental as well as to focus on getting into a better financial standing. I'm dealing with some anxiety and I tend to romanticize reality so relationships tend to make me feel unstable at times. I'm not sure if I'm making a mature decision or if I'm actually just avoiding dealing with my uncomfortable feelings. I'm quite lonely and at times desperately want a relationship but I'm also trying to manage my expectations and be ok with being alone.
