24.

according to my students i should be married.
awesome.


I think 25 is the marriage date for men.

I'm single and having people ask me why I'm not married is annoying. I usually just say "I'm working on it" (I'm 24).

All my friends are in serious relationships / married / going to be married. I can't even compare myself to them! I have no excuse!


that sounds a bit low. I'd say more around 30 for men. 25 for women.

and EVERY Korean relationship, even between highschoolers is "serious", so pay no mind. In the Korean mindset, you're supposed to marry your first girlfriend. Shocked

btw.. to the person who stated they're 27 but pass for 24 .. you mean there's a DIFFERENCE? (at that age, the difference in looks is almost impossible to detect)

you were smart. I've given this some serious thought and have come to the conclusion that you have kids either very early or very late.

the problem with very early is not having the means/resources to raise the, pay for their education, etc - especially in the shithole that is the US of A where the costs of education have gone beyond the ridiculous.

the way most people do it these days, they effectively destroy their last pre-geezer years raising children and when the children are your age, they are de facto geezers, effectively waiting to die.


I've decided to it very late... so my geezerdom won't be wasted waiting to die.. I'll actually be raising some brats into responsible citizens Very Happy

(unfortunately , only males get such a choice)
