In this fast phasing life a lot of things could happen in a blink of an eye. One day you're young and have all the time, tomorrow you've aged and running out of time. A lot of things could happen without you noticing it. So the question is, are
you ready to share your youthful years with someone in a serious matter?
Here are some reasons why it is a good idea to develop a serious relationship in your 20's
1. Strength - you are both still young and has vigor to do things out together. You two can go mountain climbing, biking, visit different places, and do extreme adventure/things together. That youthful strength that you have in your 20's would be a good foundation of your memories together. And just to remind you, that energy that you have right now in your 20's would be different in your succeeding years. So it would be nice to spend that energetic years of yours with the person you want to grow old with. Right?
2. Time - by this time maybe your are still studying in your college, or perhaps enjoying yourself in your first job. Either way, your schedule is not yet so tied-up. You still have more time to discover new things to your soon to be partner in life. Unlike others who are already in their late 20's who are usually in a pressure to find "the one". They don't have ample time to know more about that person because some of them hears the ticking of the clock (the pressure).
3. Stable - when you think that you've already found the one, you can now focus more on the bigger concern of your life which is your future. If you already have a stable or what they call the "steady" relationship, it'll be easier for you to excel in your work. Knowing that there is someone who's excited for you to achieve your goals in life (aside from your family) would be great!
4. Set for a married life - if you've been together since your early 20's.. settling down for good or entering into a married life in your late 20's wouldn't be an issue for the two of you. Perhaps by that time you've been in a relationship for 3-7 years already, and getting married in your late 20's or early 30's would be the best time. It wouldn't scare you because you had enough time to discover each others' strengths and weaknesses, what's good and bad with each other. You are already prepared financially, mentally, spiritually, and emotionally.
Look, I am not saying to settle down in your early 20's.. what I am trying convey here are the points in finding a serious relationship in your early 20's. I know we all have different views regarding this matter, but let me share my thought towards this topic.
I've read an article few days ago.. don't get me wrong, it was nice and I love some of his points regarding life and relationship. There is just one thing that I would like to expound. He said, "DO NOT settle on your 20's" and "explore". Yes, me to.. I don't like to settle and to have a family on my own in my early 20's. I am not ready for that neither. But when he said "explore".. I just don't agree with that idea to be honest.
I am a kind of a person who doesn't want to waste my time with unnecessary things -- and people, to be precise. I don't want to explore by trying each man that i'll meet along the way. I am a person who enjoys sticking with one person whom I believed in. I always try to make a relationship work, I stick 'till the very end. But when I say it's over.. it's over.
I would rather take the term "explore" as a verb, in which... The two of us will explore new things, food, places, and experiences together. I think that sounds better than the idea of exploring with different people you meet, not knowing that you've let that right person go. As some people says, "You've lost the Moon while counting the Stars".
Remember that not all people can find a serious relationship, that is why you're blessed if you've already found that person who's serious being with you. It's your part now to take good care of him/her if you would really want that serious relationship to work. You found him/her early, you still have a long way to go.. together. :)
