Well, for men and women what do you think is an age when things start becoming difficult...meaning finding partners who are single with no kids becomes challenging and in general the odds are against you if you want to marry, have children and start a family.
Well I will be turning 32 soon and found after people get into their 30's the pickins start to get slim. Many have already been married and have at least 1 child.
Viraj is some what joking but there is alot of truth to the comment if you are looking for someone who has not been attached and does not have children.
I'm 35 and will be turning 36 soon. I'm dating a guy who will be 40 this year, neither of us have been married and neither of us have kids. However, when you meet someone who's in their 30's and over it gets a little more difficult because at that point you've been single and taking care of yourself for awhile and can become very "set" in your ways. It becomes challenging factoring the other person in to your life. Also, at this point it's the whole family issue is front and center. The good news is that you have a lower tolerance for foolishness so it's gets easier to move on. You also realize that no one is perfect and you start to look for someone who really gets you. If you find that person you will be willing to overlook minor inconvenices such as the person having a child (however, I personally prefer men w/o kids but wouldn't rule him out if I really, really liked him).
But to answer your question, it depends on the people. Where they are in their lives, what they want in their future and if they're in sync, there's no age limit.
This is a two part question. I would say from what I’ve seen and the people I know, the 30’s are tough for finding single people with no kids. 40’s and over is a challenge if you want to marry and have kids. From a medical perspective, woman in their 40’s are at a higher risk of pregnancy related complications. Plus, do you want to raise teens in your 50’s?
Marriage though, alright at any age, or with parental consent if under 18.
And I wanted to add in, I'd think I'd rather have someone with a little baggage..i.e. kids, maybe been married. They've learned the ups and downs of life, and hopefully they came out a better person. Where as if they been single all this time its gonna be hard to convince them why change is ok.
It also depends on where you live. If you are in a more metropolitan area (ie NYC) you will find more single professionals who are unmarried but older then say a smaller town environment.
