...Or you can have a long term relationship fostered slowly, maintain both individual career/educational/entertainment/financial goals, and begin to find common ground with these goals as you move towards marriage, all before the age of 30 if that just coincidentally happens to be the time it occurs for you. There are 50 year-olds who should not be looking at marriage, and there are young adults who waste a chance at a more fulfilled married life, all because they create artificial timelines. There is no such thing as the ultimate lifestyle, be it married or single.
