Almost the opposite from my peer group and family.
My Dad always tells me that I shouldn't spend time with boys and that I should spend all of my time concentrating on my studies. He's been telling me that since I was 15, and now I'm 25. Sometimes I wonder when he's going to see that I like the people I date and that I need to get out there if he wants grandkids.
Also, most of my classmates are my age and we all have 3 more years of school and at least 3 more years of hard training after that before we have real jobs with real incomes -- being in school really prolongs the "kid" feeling. There are a handful of engaged or married students, and many of the single people think it's odd to be getting married "so young".
I guess I always thought the ideal age was 28 or 29. Enough to be done with grad school and have a job, not too late for good meoisis.
