Hi, I am a mom of an adult woman. My daughter left home at 18, pregnant to live with and marry a guy with issues. I married at 20 myself, but didn't have children for five years.

Everyone here with have varying opinions and experiences, which is good. You can read them all and in the end decide on your own or even seek counseling.

I feel it's unwise to rush into relationships. Your 20's are your best years to pursue your own dreams and education. Personally, I think you are right to trust your instincts and follow your own values in this case and devote time to yourself.

True love stands the test of time and is always kind and allows the other person to grow. Anyone who puts pressure on you to do something that is life-altering should be looked at twice, and re-evaluated. Think very carefully and follow your own dreams.

By the time you are ready to settle down - you will know it in your heart. Perhaps you are not ready to make that leap now.
