good age/stage of life for serious dating
This might be a silly question, but I just want your opinions.
When is the age that you should (well, not 'should'... you know what I mean) start dating. Like really be looking for a long-term relationships and even potentially a future husband? I've never really dated seriously before, and I would just like to know what a good age/stage in life would be to start looking for a potential husband.
I'm 17 and a half, and I would to get married at 21-22. (I'll be done with college when I'm 21, and I want to have a kid before 24... LOL I know I'm weird).

Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Love Life?
Don't search for a potential husband. Search for true love. Don't plan your life depending on finding someone- just let it happen when it happens. Date around. Hang out with people you have things in common with.
Do you really think you're ready to be married and have a kid in less than six years? You may think and like to pretend that you are-- but chances are the longer you wait to have kids, the better off you'll be. Maybe not [depending on just..how you are] but maybe you'll be more mature to handle a husband and child.

Ugh.
Don't plan it like that. Simply put, if you plan out the ages you want to do something, you are far more likely to just marry the guy who fits in the schedule. And if you get "behind" then you put yourself in a bad situation because you can put unneccesary pressure on a relationship because you feel like you should have been married already.
I would say, don't get married before 25 unless you find yourself in a relationship of more than 2 years and you both decide that you want it. And don't marry the first guy you date unless you fall in love with unless you date a few more before the marriage.

if your 17 and one half how old is the guy you wish to marry becouse most men around this age will not be egar to wed .... a good time to start long term relation ships would be around age 19-20 and its not wise to marry any one befor dateing them for 1 or more years ..... to look for a potental husband would be age 20 and thas the youngest i will tell you becouse the college life setting is far more potent then any one imagins and befor you can marry all your finances need to be stable and i bet by the time you or any 24 year old has kids your not quite stable finatualy ... but if you have your life paln id say 18-19 start looking

i think in college is when really you should really be serious with relationships and on the lookout for a future husband.

It sounds like you have your life planned out to a T, which can be both good and bad. Long-term dating is something that you have to feel, not a statistic that someone can just spit out at you.
I know that I didn't start dating seriously until I was eighteen. I have hopes to be wed and have a child by age twenty six, but at the same time, one should seriously consider what you will be giving up to have a child and a marriage.
My best advice here is that you are still young, hell I am too, and people in our age bracket need to have all the fun we can in life, so I would simply wait for life to happen to you. When you find someone that you feel you are willing to adapt for, and stick it out with, then you can make that a long-term relationship. They are long and hard and sometimes do not pay off like you want them to. You'll just know when it's right, and when the person is right.

17 is a great age to begin dating at. You're more mature and you know whom you are and you know the kind of guy you want.
But when you find this guy isn't very clear. In fact, it is impossible for anybody in the whole world (unless their prone to premonitions) can tell you when you're going to met the right guy.
Anytime when you feel ready to have a long-term realtionship is the right time. It's completly up to you as to when you want to have the realtionship.
I hope that this helped,

well there is no real answer for this question. you never know when you are going to find the right guy. you could just be walking in a supermarket one day and just bump into him. well if your still in high school i dont recommend you finding a husband there...high school is for experiance. its to help you know when the right one comes along.

Well, I never planned to get married or anything like that and at 18 after 4 months of dating I was engaged and really looking forward to spending my life with him.
The point is that as you go through your life you will probably date the same people, if you're looking for a potential husband or not. I think you're more likely to find someone you want to spend the rest of your life with if you find someone you enjoy being with.
You can still have that idea in your head but don't forget that dating and marriage are meant to enrich your lives, not be a trial trying to find the right guy.
I hope it all works out for you!

It depends, do you want to marry a man, or a guy? Speaking generally, guys do not become men until they are well past 25 and you would have to look real hard to find one worthy of being a father at age -24. I have always told my daughters to not even bother with dating until 25, they didn't listen to me and neither will you. They pay for it on a regular basis and so will you. If I may suggest, get through college, get a job, invest your money and get yourself stable, then go looking for a man who has done the same. Make sure you have the option to say home with your children before they get to school age.
Even though you won't take my advice, Be well

Your not silly, the age you want to do things is perfect.
I have been with my boyfriend for 3 years now, I'm 20 years old right now but I want to at least be engaged and a deposit on a house by the time i'm 23 and married with a bub by 25.
It's not strange to think about these things, I love thinking about it.
Everyone does things in their own time but you hear some people say that they did things the right way.
I interperate things the right way of how you and I would like to start our lives.
