Same expectations as in college (wants you to be tall, handsome and socially adept), except now they also expects you to have your own car, pay for their meals, etc.
Yes, because they're the most desired age. Once they get older, their standards quickly get re-adjusted. Not because they "get more mature." Because reality sets in.

It depends on how much relationship experience they've already had, and how mature they are. Those who have only had one or two relationships are still learning about themselves, their needs, human nature, and how relationships work, what pitfalls to watch out for, etc., so their expectations tend not to be high. By the time they're seriously looking for marriage (which often doesn't happen until their 30's), they have a clearer idea of what they want, what is unacceptable, etc. They've developed standards. Women who started having relationships in highschool would be ahead of the curve, and might have higher expectations in their 20's.
I think older women have higher expectations. When she's 23, your entry-level or part-time-while-you-go-to-school job is normal. When she's 33, she'll probably expect more from you. By 43, you've been in the workforce for a couple of decades, so a part-time or entry-level job probably doesn't cut it.

I'd agree - but I'd add that, at least for me, when I was younger (meaning in my teens), I was attracted to guys that I thought were hot that I didn't know at all. When I got a bit older, I realized that I was more attracted to who someone was rather than just what they looked like at first glance. I never cared about money or status - but I met my husband when I was 25. I think that when women are single in their 30's a 40's - financial stability becomes more of an issue. I also think that the longer you are single, the more set in your ways you become and the harder it can be to change them.
if your adult life starts at 18, a 23 yr old is only 5 yrs adult..
thats still pretty young, most that age dont know what they really want... the high expectations, may be more of a mix, of confusion, or not being tied down- most women today have carreers, so at this age,,,many bury themselves in a carreer direction.....
also- they are told since 18,,you have your whole life ahead of you,,,,shoot for the stars,,,dont f---- it up

Not sure, my expectations have always been pretty much the same.
