If you wanna go for arrange marriage, get married now, or atleast start looking. It's disgusting but the arranged marriage scene works like a market, and the value tends to drop the closer you're to 30. Options decrease as age goes up.
If you wanna go for love marriage, find someone you love and chill.

Marriage is like Layoff, the earlier you have it, the less scared you become of it.

Omg I love this comment
Guys there is a biological reason behind this
Only read if you want to have babies
- female fertility drops after 30s and drops significantly after 35
- Men see a drop in testosterone, sperm count and sperm mobility by mid 30s
- the infant is at higher risk of congenital disorders of born to a mother older than 35
These are based on studies spanning 10+ counties and 10,000+ women / men
In the new society which has greatly improved women rights the best age to have babies is 28-31 years post that your chances of spending on exorbitant fertility treatments, handling pregnancy risks increases manifold

To add, once you've baby at 35, by the time they're 20 you would reach 55, would be stressful nearing retirement age. Few yrs headstart is always better...

Can you source the studies ? Cant seem to find any. A-lot of women give birth to healthy children at even 40.

Relatives keep saying that the moment you turn 21 lol.
Marry when you're ready, don't listen to what other say
Woman's fertility is highest between 23-25, not too bad between 25-28. Beyond 30, a woman is doomed on child bearing. Beyond 35, be ready for a mentally challenged kid and other complications in your health. Men age much slower compared to women on child bearing. No matter how much feminists would like to whitewash facts, these are biological truths. Modern women want men with 3 years age difference at Max. Whichever way you look at it, you are heading towards the ineligible age bracket for marriage very fast. You marry only if you want to have kids. Otherwise there is no point of marriage. The "companionship" nonsense that modernity quotes as an alternate purpose of marriage is overrated.

Agree on age bearing. I don’t think so anyone was trying to be feminists here. You gave a blanket statement. Not everyone wants kid. Don’t know if you know but one can also adopt. I know happy couples in their 40s who decided to not have kids. Better to not have baby of someone you don’t love than marrying just for the sake of baby. I hope everything is good with you cos the last sentence makes me worried. Take care :)
Can't it normalised in society to not have kids if we don't, as in case we can't find suitable till child bearing age, why to pass on trauma to next generation..and India is already on top in terms of population. Also adopting is I think acceptable only if you are making enough money to shut up relatives mouth :)

Right now tbh, dating pool falls off a cliff after 30. The good ones have been taken and the ones left are toxic or won’t give you the feelz/chemistry.

18/21 tak shadi kr lo, uske bad you are late.
First you have to decide whether you want to get married/have children etc at at all. If yes, you have to keep in mind your options will keep getting reduced once you are past 30. If you are attractive, you can push till 33ish. More than age, you should be more worried about finding right partner.
You are very late, Marry at 18 . kids in early 20s. Get Divorce by 36 while kids are in college and roam around the world or go to Himalayas or do whatever you want
Most of these comments are so traumatising! Is nobody scared of getting stuck with the wrong person for the rest of their life? Imagine finding somebody you could love and respect. I think it should be one of the most important priorities in life compared to child bearing. I wish Indians weren't so mechanical about marriages.

Relatives poking you for early marriage is a subtle way of saying ki, " as you grow older, baccha karna utna hi mushkil ho jata hai".

Tough one cause like most issues of consequence the answer is it’s complicated. Some considerations and thoughts to chew on:
1. Ticking of biological clock is real. I would suggest that freeze your eggs asap and have the option value so that you don’t have to worry about the clock much.
2. Having kids or not in itself is a personal choice. I fully empathise with your thinking here. I know women who have been very sure since their early 20s that they want to raise kids and women who have been unsure too skeptical. Given how it’s a socially sensitive topic many people who regret having kids don’t ever admit it. So there is likelihood of bias in what people say about this. Think for yourself.
3. Finding the right partner is one of the most important factors for peace in life. Know enough people going through a divorce even after many years of love and then marriage. Also know enough people who are unhappy and want to get a divorce but are unable to because of their kids in the picture. Unfortunately I don’t know a fool proof hack here except that you have to start early and be deliberate.
4. The later we get married the more we know our priorities and the more we are fixed in our way of life. Being aware of both is great but also knowing what compromises one is willing to make will mitigate heartburn. Its best to spend some time getting to know someone before deciding to marry. Marriage is expensive and divorce is even more expensive - mental and financial both. It’s important to understand motivations also - if one of you wants to have kids and the other doesn’t, best discovered upfront.
5. Don’t fall for broad generalisations on what’s worked for civilisations / older generation. That people with kids claim to be happy doesn’t mean they are. That there were fewer divorces in our parents generation doesn’t imply they were happier in the marriages.

I am 40 many times broken and spent time on startup ideas nothing worked...age takes away some looks too..never mind people will always be eager to judge..settle when you find someone....
Don't worry about age and don't worry about relatives. I got married to my wife when she was 29. It was an arranged marriage, so even in arranged marriage, age doesn't matter that much. What matters is that you should be able to relax and enjoy the company of the person you are marrying.
