Serious Relationships

The general rule is, don't have a serious long-term relationship until you're 25. If you're in a committed relationship, it says you're ready to settle down.

Get everything out of your system first: The three-ways, the one-night-stands, the fetish girls, the fantasies. Wait until you're in the 30's before you marry. You should have a well-established career by then, you'll be better prepared to afford a wife and kids. Hopefully within a steady well balanced home environment. Remember, once kids are involved there is no such thing as separation. She will always have some input into your life.

Even if you leave she can make you pay child support. Make sure you are ready to have kids and make sure both of you agree on it.

If you're under 25, you should not have a girlfriend. Do not move in with your girlfriend. You should be having fun and sleeping with as many people as possible. Some men do mature at different rates. If you're ready for marriage or kids, go for it. Just remember that over 50% of marriages fail. You had better be damn sure of it, or you will be paying for it the rest of your life. Marriages where both parties are older than 25 have a much, much higher success rate.

Children raised in solid households are much less likely to be social delinquents.
