    You're 20 years old!! There is no need for you to be in a serious relationship!!


    Get rid of the guy and move on!!

    Why not? Why can't she be in a serious relationship at 20? I am. I'm 23, and I live with my boyfriend and we are planning to get married. Not all girls need or want to have that lifestyle of nothing serious.

    Make sure you've healed and learned since ending the toxic relationship or you're liable to bring the same issues and make the same mistakes in the next relationship regardless of how serious or not it is.

    First, a 20 year old should experience life before settling down! Most men are very immature in their early 20's.

    Why settled down now with a person who doesn't treat her right!!

    Happy for you but it doesn't mean everyone should get married at 23. There is a big difference between 20 year old woman and 23 .

    If you just got out of a toxic relationship, don't worry about getting serious so soon. If it's been awhile, just starting dating again. When you think you've found the right person, it will probably become serious on its own.

    She isn't talking about settling down, she's talking about getting "serious" which could be understood to mean that she is thinking of entering into a relationship instead of having a couple dates here and there. That is by no means saying she wants to settle down and get married. Ultimately it's her decision.

    Also, all men are immature. My boyfriend is 26 and still thinks "wangs" instead of "wings" is hilarious.

    Last year at age 23 I married a 26 year old. We have a very healthy and mature relationship. Everybody is different.


    This is in the wrong board.

    I married at 21. My husband was 23. We still married after 43 yrs. Whether you stay together depends on two things. The most important is to be friends as well as lovers. The other is willingness to compromise. If your aren't ready for either of these two things then you aren't ready for a real long, long term relationship. It's hard work. And sometimes you don't get your way. But if you are both willing its worth it.
