That.
BTW, the age thing annoys me. I know women HUNG UP on the fact that they're single and XYZ age...worrying about their eggs and what not.
anyone else think in the 20's relationships are worthless and overrated for the most part

I personally think that people have a void in their lives and think that it will be filled when they get in a relationship. i think that you should be completely satisfied with yourself and happy before you bring someone else in your life and try to make them happy. And that in itself has no age limit nor restriction. Enjoy life and dont stress so much. im learning this life lesson myself.

Only pointless if you're rushing into something for the sake of wanting to be in a relationship. I think a lot of 20-somethings treat love & relationships as some rat race. Take your time. You have all the time in the world.

You need to practice being in relationships so you know what you're looking for exactly and how to act in one. Experience is what you need in order to figure out who you are and what you need in your life exactly.

IDK man...Im 21 and Im less experienced than most people my age with relationships....its good in a lot of ways...especially when a good numbers of these clowns are whipped to the tee...I think it will better myself in the long run
....on the other side of the coin that 'long run' isn't a guarantee..and I feel a void in my life right now from not having that girl for support...sometimes I get worried that I'm losing (or maybe already lost) my capacity to give love and affection.

I married @ 21 and was divorced by 27. I'm now 31 and married to my best friend. I wouldn't say it was worthless, but it was an incredible learning experience for me.

I don't plan on being in a relationship until im upper 30's almost 40. Not worth it, its not going to last. I say its only worth it knowing its not going to last and just enjoy it for what it is. But at the same time, you can't tell the future...

I dont think its worthless but my mindset at 23 is stay focused on work and stack my money. Smash some girls and keep it moving( not tryin to sound cocky)I really dont want the stress of a relationship. Maybe I just aint meet the right girl yet...

You just cant have relationships in your early 20's man just gotta reach your life goals first
i find this somewhat true, but i'm still optimistic about that one special girl changing my thoughts about stuff like this. simp mode

It all depends on meeting that right person. age has nothing to do with it.
Balloonoboy said it best, age should not forecast the success of the relationship.
My parents met in college, got married at 23, and have been together ever since.
A lot of people write off the idea of being with another person because they think there are "better opportunities" waiting for them possibly.
Well how can you know whats the best opportunity for you unless you jump out there and test the waters?
Just be mature and go for a mature relationship. Just because the first date you go on isn't with the perfect girl, doesn't mean relationships aren't for you. That means SHE wasn't.

exactly what you should not do in a relationship...find someone who will love you for you and you'll be money.

I refuse to get into a serious relationship again until I'm older than 25.
Being in a serious relationship allows for too much risk against my life goals.
Women are manipulative monsters.

isnt that how most relationships end though? we put up this act in the first ___ months or years and once we're sick of acting, the real you comes out...

Same here, seems like some people are in a huge rush to tie the knot. No way in hell would i be able to get married right now, i'm 23.

Dope thread. It's really an open debate, good points to both sides. Dope perspectives from people my age bracket.
Somebody posted above, 20's are freshman year stage. crawl, walk, run phases on relationships.. A Sure Thing Just Might Fail you, and we live and learn from our breakups/fallouts.
Even though I'm young, & single, I don't rule out relationships, If a girl has serious potential why not, if I get burned, So be it.. 'Tis' Better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all'
I'm not looking for anything serious, while I'm in the army cause women cannot cope with my job and what it brings to the table. But When I get out in 2014, I'll be 24, I'd seriously would look to settle down, have a solid career benefiting from the Army.
Times flies and lifes short. People tend to forget. Don't take it for granted..
