I'm 23 and have been in some pretty messed up relationships between the age of 17-present. They all seem to last for a couple of months to 2 1/2 years. Anyways, I really want a serious relationship because I'm 23 now, and I love children, I want a lasting relationship with a guy who believes in family morals, and living a happy life. I'm so generous when I date someone and I give my all, I even cook and clean, and show as much love as possible, even when it comes to sex, and letting them do what they want with friends, girls/boys. Am I normal for wanting a child at the age of 25 before I'm 26? I want to be the perfect house wife/soccer mom with buffalo wings and dinners cooked every night for my husband....but I haven't found someone who appreciates my love and concern.
I think I'm never going to find it.......

    On the internet no, it's not normal. People on the internet do not like kids and think that marriage is a scam, having kids is forfeit of all happiness and that being a model parents/wife or attempting to is antithetical to gender equality.

    However, it is normal. I would recommend you try to find youself first and live your life. Establish yourself. The more dead set you become on finding"the one" to father your kids, the more likely you are to end up with the WRONG one. Yes, it's normal but be patient. Rushing gets too many people into too much trouble and you need to have more sense than that rather than disappointing yourself.

    Normal to want a family, but why set a schedule? Do it when you're ready, and find te right person. Meanwhile, date and have fun.

    My mom had her first child at age 25 so I'll say it's normal.

    Because I love my mom.

      Yes, I do that. What's wrong with wanting a life like that?

    WAY too young. Don't do it. Your odds of divorcing are much higher if you're under 30. You sound like an awesome girl, though. Kids will change your life, your body, and almost certainly your sex drive with your hubby and the girls you're into. He'll feel like he was duped.

    And doing the easiest things - going to the market, watching a movie, sleeping - all huge hassles once you have kids.

    I agree with randypete - travel. Otherwise wait 20 more years to see how beautiful and vast this earth is.

    See the world and then settle down you will find your perfect man to settle down as you said you have found many clowns.

    You have a good heart and mind and i am sure you will find the perfect man to wine and dine and have a real good time .

    Why 26? Why not 27 or 24, or 35 for that matter?
