What age do you think women are ready to settle down?

[MattR1984]

I've google'd this and they always say 27 to 31. That sounds about right, however every longterm relationships I've been in was with girls younger than this. Typically 24 or 25. One was 26 and one was 20 believe it or not. Typically I would believe a girl in college is not, being in a college town and knowing a few they are up for hookups and sleep around a lot. I'm 31 and I'm thinking of each "GF/BF" label longterm I've had, not flings or plates or casuals.

I agree with the 27 to 31 thing. But it's not a hard and fast rule. Sometimes it's earlier because the girl is more traditional or she got into a serious LTR at a younger age or is ready for kids at a younger age. Or her bf proposed at a younger age because he wants to lock down the decent good looking girl asap lol.

Sometimes it's much later because she's riding the carusel or she's holding out for LOOKS AND MONEY and finally compromises on one of them lol.

Where I live ,they all start going nuts at 25 if they haven't locked someone down. 30 is considered abnormal to be single and never married. For guys, I think its a little more common to have never been married - its very easy to remain single where I live even if you have a lot going for you.

In the midwest if you're 25 and unmarried people think something is wrong with you. Most people have 3 kids by the age of 25.

In California many 36 year old women aren't even thinking of marriage. The work hard/play hard mentality of cities causes people to delay this kind of thing.

That's pretty much dead on. During ages 23-27, they're prime for picking and this is the age range where they should be dating their future husbands. However, the best time to influence them psychologically and emotionally is in the 20-23 age range.

I've noticed a lot of girls who are approaching 30, or are 30+ in my area who are still unmarried. I think it's the ones who still believe in that Disney fantasy nonsense who are husband hunting in their early 20's. But there's plenty of dudes trying to lock them down. But people change a lot between their 20's and 30's IMO so they are the ones who will end up single moms by the time they are in their 30's. Husband trades them in for a younger, hotter girl.

For most 30. I recently met a 38 year old who was very attractive and she wanted to settle down. I imagine she had all the **** riding fun in the past and now was ready to settle.

Huge difference between asking what age women are ready to settle down, and what age do women settle down at.

Here in the Midwest, most women think they are ready to settle down by their mid-twenties, but then a lot of them end up cheating on their husbands by the time they're about 30 or so because they realize they got married too quickly. I've seen it happen several times with friends of mine. It's unfortunate for everyone involved.

In reality, I think you're spot on with the assumption that on average, most women are probably ready to settle down by the time they're 30 or so, give or take a few years.

There obviously are exceptions and variables depending on where you live though, as well as family situations. If a 24 year old girl has 2 older sisters who are both happily married, she's going to be really feeling the pressure to settle down, because she hates going home for the holidays as a single girl with all these couples around in her parents' home.

Women between the ages of 30 and 35... who have never been married and have no children are absolutely desperate to find some breeding stock. I have one plate (Danielle) 34, was married between the ages of 26 and 30... didn't last, never had any kids. Wants me to father her child... I've been fixed so even if I was willing to go along with that cr@p, it can't happen.

She dumped me and is looking for a dude that isn't shooting blanks.

Don't sweat it. She dumped you to find a guy she can enslave.
