Amen!

OP, the loneliness of the dating years is a gift in disguise. You are figuring out what you value in life, how you enjoy spending your time, what kind of people you are drawn to and who make you feel good. If I'd gotten married before 30, I would have made a terrible choice. People who marry later are less likely to get divorced.

Live your life. Find happiness in what you do have. Trust me when I tell you that you will need that skill in marriage, too.

Met my husband when I was 31 and he was 30. Married at 33/32 respectively. I’m so happy that I didn’t get married in my 20s! Plus, I think relationships move a little faster when you’re older. You have a better sense of self and what you’re looking for in a partner.

I wouldn't say "old" I'd call it normal! At least in NYC and DC. When I meet people here in DC who are married and in their 20s I usually think they're pretty young to be married.

Yes and I am so so so glad I didnt get married in my 20s.

We married at 32 and 33. Have 2 kids now. Totally normal around here.

My god I hardly know anyone who didn’t

Lol. Like everyone I know. I was mid 30s. Two kids by 39.

Yes. I married at 34, my husband was 35. Most of the couples I know met in their 30s. Most people I know didn't buy a home until their mid- to late-30s. Most people I know had their kids in their late 30s and early 40s.

These are very common things. You are ok. Have hope.

I didn’t meet my husband until I was 33.

DH 31
Me 35

1st kid DH 33 me 37
2nd kid DH 35 me 38

You can do it.

I’m losing hope
Anyone able to settle down after 30s?

I feel like I’m damaged goods
