This isnt some sappy love story or me venting, just looking for some solid advice from people that have been down the same road and know what the deal is.
Im 21 years old, just graduated from college and have a girlfriend of 11 months now and things are going good, she is 23 years old and just got a steady full time career job so shes all set. I have yet to find a career job and am still doing random jobs here and there until i can find something in my field, im a criminal justice major and wanna find a cop job somewere.
I think a lot of the problems stem from the fact that all my friends are also 21 years old and all of them are single, and im the only one with a girlfriend right now. Every weekend all we do is party our ***** off and go to clubs ETC, my friends hook up with girls etc and dont have a care in the world, we are all 21 and who could give ashit right?
Well me on the other hand, it seems like everywere i look people are talking MARRIAGE between me and my girlfriend, and this scares the **** out of me, all my parents talk about is how we should get married and we are perfect for each other etc
I will tell you right now that she IS the type of girl that is good for settling down with, shes extremely level headed, very logical of a thinker, extremely good with her finances due to the fact that shes a math teacher and has a bachelors in mathematics, has a solid job, can cook good, etc and is generally always there for me like any good companion would be
The thought of settling down right now scares the hell out of me, and even though i know she would be a great wife, at the same time im also 21 years old right now, im only young once and i feel that im "missing something" in my life right now
quite frankly, i feel like i should be single, party my *** off, and live life because im young right now and i feel like i need to get this phase out of my system so that i can settle down with someone later on in life and be content, i feel like if i settle down right now without ever experiencing my early 20s as a single guy that i may have regrets later in life like i missed out on something
am i being stupid or is this a logical concern?
