From a mature person. It depends on their maturity, and when they are ready for a serious/possible spousal relationship. No 2 people are the same. If you have gotten to the point where you feel you are wasting your time, there are red flags, see them, talk with the person, and move on if, necessary for both of you.

twenties unfortunatly to late for me

It's not the age that is important. It's whether or not the person is ready to get married in the first place.

Well, hard to say, Jadey, but I would say not before the twenties at least and not before you have gotten yourself "established" in the real world and earning your own living and a "legal adult". We all have crushes and "passions" in high school and college, but, that is not really the best time to focus on a real relationship. Too much remains "in the future" at that time. Some serious relationships survive that time and are successful, but not many. Circumstances play a great role. Your careers may take you away from each other. It certainly happened with me. It was painful, but there was not much I could do. She was not willing to follow me, and I could not stay where she was.

Like everyone else I dont think there's an age when you should start looking..... I do think there is an age below which you shouldn't be tho. At some point, if you're lucky, you'll meet them, & if you're even more lucky the timing will be right, & if you're mind bogglingly lucky, you wont cock it up!

you do not look for a potential spouse, the potential spouse finds you...it just so happens you both agree

There's not an age, but a mindset for me. I don't date for "fun" in any sense like that. I think emotional investments into relationship shouldn't be wasted on a "good time", so I have always viewed potential dates as serious materials. I don't go right out and say it, but if I can't see myself with them in the future, then I don't waste time with them in the present.

You're reading At what age should a person ideally start "looking" for a potential spouse, rather than wasting time on relationships that may not last forever?
