Those are two different things for me. My first "really love each other" was in high school. My first and only "potential to get married" was well into my 30's.

It would be nice to have a definition of "serious relationship". To me it means one that could lead to marriage. Which mine did at the age of 21. Before that, I might have had boyfriends but none of them was what I would define as 'serious'.

Sure, why not. My first "serious" boyfriend was in HS and I wound up marrying him

I see it as unlikely, but possible.
