I was told by a friend and the more I date i'm finding it to be more true that, seriousl relationships just don't work if your under 25 years of age. Not that the age itself has anything to do with it but the fact that by 25 youre ready for this kinda thing at that point in your life. I'm sure it depens on the person and where they're at in their life but Is it true? *sigh* someone tell me, i wanna see some opinions on paper to either prove me wrong or write. -,-



thank you...

I've never heard that before. Maybe it depends on the individual, not their age?

my friend is an older individual and I trust him when he says thing but this I think is determined on someones person. I've been in 3 serious relationships and I'm only 20, and each of them have failed miserably. I'm a good girl friend, I have a great personality and as a girlfriend I do everything I should but i just hasn't happened for me. I'm not sure whats up but it does have some logic to it. People by 25 have an initial idea of where theyre headed, who they are in the world and quite a bit of obstacles are out of the way and the person is ready for a relationship because they're not distracted by all this other personal who-ha. But at the same time when you fall in love, it just happsns and you work together right??? ugh, so confusing -,-

You know it's funny several people who disagree with you say that they were married before the age of 25 and then say they were divorced soon after. I find that kind of ironic hell rather funny. People need to think about what they are gonna say before they reply or else they will seem like complete idiots. What do I think you ask? Well I think age plays no part in it. If things were meant to be then they are meant to be. however there comes a certain level of maturity with people under the age of 25 that sometimes makes having a lasting relationship difficult. Thats just my opinion though.

my sentiments exactly, I saw what they were saying and I was like -,- yeah...what I'm thinking is people are kinda busy battling others things when they're younger than 25. Like getting out of the house, figuring out what kinda person and who they are in the world, getting things started for yourself and just in general dealing with personal things trying to develop ones self. By 25 i think typically people have some sense of direction, which is why I think my friend said it. Once that kinda stuff is out of the way I think maybe it makes it easier to accept someone else into you because you've already accepted yourself kinda deal. idk. I don't claim to know everything or be mature enough but idk, maybe its just a matter of time.

most importantly unicue you have to love yourself before you can ever love anyone else. that is the only way you can ever be truly happy.

thank you -,- I do love myself, I pride myself on having a great personality, I am an awesome person, and I know I'm a good girlfriend, just other people aren't at my level I guess. I just want someone to share my journey with. I have so many wonderful things in my life that I would love to share with someone else, but the best I can do right now is share it with friends, family just that last piece is missing lol I'm a little beyond my years. lol

My parents married when my Mom was 18 and my Dad 21. They were married 62 years! But they were from that generation that didn't look at marriage as "going steady" and broke up over nothing.

Relationships just don't work, don't worry it is a pretty typical thing in dating.

They also might not believe in divorce, I met a young woman yesterday whose mother is a victim of domestic violence; her husband throws her through glass windows, slams her against the walls. Now her daughter has married an abusive man, who cut her with a knife from her wrist to her elbow and beats her unmercifully. He kicked her out of the house and she ended up on the streets with no where to go, why? Because her parents won't let her come back home because they don't believe in divorce. I think they've been married about 40 years now, yeah, I'm not sure if that's something to celebrate or not, but what do I know?
