i always thought i should get married by like 27. and i always wanted kids since like 18..
but with my goals, i will be really busy and (hopefully) focused on school until im about 32.. so if im not in a serious relationship thats ok. kids, i will be a little confused.. i dont wanna take a year or two away from my goals by having a child. But if i do, i think about things like, will i have enough time to spend with them being in rigorous courses full time and needing to study all the time..? But at the same time i dont wanna wait until im like 32 to have kids..
idk what ill do... ill never panic though. whats meant to be will be.

I had my life all planned out. Married at 24 and 1st baby at 26. Well, the saying goes " if you want to make God laugh, tell him your plan"
Right now I am content. No man in sight and I am ok with that. I can honestly say that I am not in a good place right now to have a boyfriend. I need to get myself together 1st and figure out what exactly what I want to do.

Alright ladies, lets be completely real here.
Aside from the reassurance that "God will provide" at what age will you go "oh shoot, I gotta get on that!" if you're not married or in a serious relationship.
If you're already married, at what age did you think you were going to get married and what age did you end up getting married?
For my own personal self, I think by age 30 I don't got a serious something-something going on... |
tbh, there is no age limit
I started to get serious about marriage in my early 20s because that was the ideal age for me to marry ( which is "young" according to today's standards). But if I reach my 30s and am not married, I wouldn't start to panic.
I've learn to let things run their natural course and be content. Muslims/we have a well known saying in our faith "We plan, but God is the best of all planners." If I'm not married by the age I 'plan' to be married, then I would exercise patience and understand that there is a reason for everything. Meanwhile, I would use that time to concentrate, improve, and focus on myself; finish goals and spend time doing the things that I will not have time to do once I get married and start raising a family.
So to answer the OP, there is really no age limit

Is this for me? If so, in not where I want to be in my career...I'm not where I want to be financially....I haven't decided if I'm moving back to my hometown....I haven't decided where I want to go to grad school (hometown or GA). I have to figure all of this out within the next year

I have no interest in kids whatsoever.
Not sure about marriage either.
In a great relationship right now, if it ended, would not be the end of the world.
Don't wanna be alone though.
But no panic, I'm great and I haven't been single since kindergarten.
