[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No way would I trade my 20s for marriage. I got married at 31 and had two kids by age 36. Perfect. [/quote]

See that’s the thing. I didn’t trade a single thing. I just had those experiences with my dh. We still went to Ibiza and danced, backpacked Europe, went on girls only and guys only trips, supported each other through grad school. And when I reminisce on that awesome decade, dh remembers it too. We didn’t have kids until our 30s. Dh was just there like a best friend. He wasn’t claustrophobic and didn’t stop anything.

My single friends just seemed to have terrible strings of first dates, guys they were always trying to break up with and unsatisfied sex lives. Even my most independent girl friends spent a lot of their 20s unhappily. [/quote]

Honestly I wouldn't have had time to date in my late 20s when I was getting started as a lawyer.  So had I not been married or in a long term relationship pretty sure I would have been celibate.[/quote]

Yes, this is one of the pps. Law school and being a junior associate in biglaw was brutal. Many of my single female friends either stayed single or (imo of course) really settled because they wanted a family and in most cases it didn't work out in the end. I was lucky to have met my "not serious" husband in college. [/quote]
