[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 38, married 11 years, have 3 kids, own my home, have a healthy retirement savings. I’m absolutely dumbfounded by how few of my peers have progressed down the “normal” path of adulthood with me. I kept thinking they’d catch up to me at some point, but the door is closing. [/quote] I am 35 and nobody in my orbit was talking marriage at 27. It feels like it took my circle (myself included) until 30 to start "growing up" - I was married at 31 and that was the first of my friend group.[/quote] You were not in the right orbit. God 27 is late to be married if you want to be somewhat responsible. [/quote] Where are you from? Utah? I’m gen x in DC and I was one of the first married at 27. The couple that married before us? Waiting till marriage for sex.. But my peers all had careers and other things to look forward to so I guess they weren’t too worried about being married by 25.[/quote]
