Im 22 years old and i know that im aware that im in my last couple years before i begin peaking in my mid twenties where the beauty and attractiveness will unfortunately fade away, most people are attracted to people in their late teens, early twenties age range. Even my own grandfather is always bragging about me being single, he always tells me and warns me that its better to get yourself a girlfriend now before I get older and no girls would want me, my grandfather is 71 years old and he really is nostalgic about his younger days when he was around women, my grandfather says about himself that women are the most attractive in their twenties only and early thirties, is he really trying to put me down to thinking that i should just hurry up and and rush to find someone already?
If you want to go ahead otherwise don't, what your grandfather thinks and what you choose to do may not be the same thing and no one's grandfather is always right. There are beautiful humans at every age but I have found beautiful outside does not mean beautiful inside as well.
Your grandfather says women in their 20s and early 30s are attractive, but you--a man--are 22 and feel at the end of your attractiveness? (I'm assuming you're a man and not a lesbian.) I don't think I have ever heard anybody say that men "peak" before women. It's a silly notion to me that mid-20s are the end of anyone's attractiveness.
Age, like looks are irrelevant, what matters is the person on the inside. Would you be happy with a really attractive girlfriend if she was a bad person?
I think the majority of people would say that most men and women in their 20s are at their best looking. However, people well past their 20s find love all the time. Grandpa is probably just being nostalgic, and maybe a bit self absorbed making those comments to you.

Usually don't see this from a dude. Interesting. I mean, it's cool to be aware of your youth and seize the day, but don't let it become a worry. It's all good. You've got plenty of time.
I am sure that the majority of people have differing opinions, but I personally think that men are at their most attractive about age 45-55. I am 37 (as of yesterday!) and I've always had interest in people who were older than me, and the older I get, the older I like and the more of an age gap I'm ok with.
But here's a bit of advice I'm solid on giving you: DO NOT settle for someone, when it comes to who you marry and have kids and a life with...you had better make sure that you can LIVE with that woman, that you can happily wake up next to her every morning for the rest of your days. Because that's what marriage is supposed to be. If you are just settling, then part of you is operating under the premise that maybe you can do better one of these days or basically you're not "all in" on the commitment to her. It's a mistake.
