Don’t have fertility issues but was browsing my coverage for some other stuff and went down a rabbit hole. I have really really good health insurance that is probably better than 99% of Americans so I’m sure it’s true for everyone else. This is honestly super sad considering I have several coworkers that battled with infertility and spend THOUSANDS of dollars out of pocket to finally have their children. But they’ll pay for you to mutilate your body and even fly you to have the procedure done. Unbelievable.

I am mainly talking about those Marriages where they wait until they are "secure" financially or decided to just wait.
But I get what you are saying. Problem also is the MWGTOW "movement" too. These POS guys want to have it all but not commit. Well take away what they want and guess what, they gone and weren't worth it anyway. while people dont like to heat it, church is a good place to meet a lasting partner, as they understand what marriage is about and who sex is meant for.
Part of my problem with dating was not wanting to have early sex with men. So because if this I never had a serious relationship and finally just lost my virginity at age 28 to “get it over with”. in some ways it was prohibiting me from finding a long term partner. No one wanted to stick around long enough for me to develop real feelings before we had sex. Because these guys could easily go get laid by ordering a girl up like a pizza on tinder. So it pisses me off seeing so many men shaming women here for “waiting” til they got “old” as if it was a choice - men chose not to date me because I wouldn’t have sex with them without at least falling in love first. I had given up on the waiting until marriage thing a long time ago because I felt I’d never find a guy willing to wait and I was right. So then there I was still single and a Virgin at 28 all for nothing. And I get shamed for doing what I thought was the right thing. I didn’t “wait” to settle down because I wanted to hoe around first. Now I’m 31 and in a loving relationship and men here say that women in there 30s are expired goods. Well I’m sorry but I’m still very young and fertile. I’m also not going to rush my bf into marrying me too soon because that’s what causes divorce.
You are not damaged goods. Once you hit 40 that's is when things really start having issues. I have many friends and family that experienced this. Hell we experienced it with 3 miscarriages as well have our First when my wife was 30, and our second when she was 34.
I feel for you, Hollywood, internet and MSM has created this hookup culture and it pains me to see people your age struggle.
I married my wife after a year and 9 months of knowing her. Hell I proposed to her 9 months of knowing her. I knew she was the one and still is 18 years later. We've had our ups and downs and adding kids into the mix strained our marriage, but we believe in Gods promise for Marriage and took those vows for "better or worse" "Richer or Poorer" and "sickness and Health".
Divorce isn't caused by marring to early. It usually caused by one partner forgetting the Vows they made under God. The Bible has marriage mapped out, just follow it and let it guide you. You'd be surprised at how much wisdom is actually in there when it comes to how to treat each other. 1 Corinthians 13 4-7 should be printed out and posted everywhere. Such good advice.
