I'm 25 years old and I've had 3 serious boyfriends and have dated a few other guys casually. How many boyfriends is too many? Should I settle down with the next one? I don't want to marry the wrong man, but I'm wondering if I am too picky

NO do not settle down because you think you have had too many boyfriends. I have had many and I'm not settling until I find someone worth settling with. Never think you've had too many relationships and if your picky, its for good reasons I suspect.

There's really no such thing as too many boyfriends when it comes down to finding the right person. I suppose 10 serious boyfriends begins to be a lot. Either way, you shouldn't settle just because you think dating a ton of guys is bad. Maybe give the dating scene a break and focus on some goals or hobbies. There is no rush to marry. You husband to be is out there. You ought to be picky when it comes to the man you'll spend your entire life with. Just focus on other things in your life. Marriage will be in the picture soon enough. Until then, enjoy your days of being single:)

I'm 26. I've been very happily married for 3 years. Before I met my husband I had 2 (maybe 3....depending on what you consider serious) boyfriends. And lets just say I had fun in college. I don't regret ANYTHING! I always worried about getting serious with a new guy, because what if I was wasting my time and he wasn't "the one". Realistically you need to have some experience to know what you want in "the one". Your only 25....have fun discovering. And whatever you do, don't marry someone just to be married. It's a mistake, mistake, mistake! You will know it's right when it's right!

Go for one who has a good career, nice car, and has a roof over his head and that doesn't mean mom and dad's roof... and who can also provide you with good sex.... looks too if you can get it... oh and lets not forget the great personality... and find one who is not paying all his wages in child support ...so be open minded and have fun finding the right one... there can never be to many men to date while you are single... Oh and only get married if you don't need him .... because with need come dependence then with that comes settling... so make sure you are where you want to be as far as your career, and area you want to live in.. always put yourself first and use your head more than your heart and you will be very well off and not to mention happy that you did it your way...

3 in 25 years, gee, I've known girls that had 3 in 25 hours. Not much point sticking with someone that it isn't going to work with. Maybe you're destined to be single, better stay that way rather than get married just for the sake of being married. If the "right" one comes along, you'll know it. As for how many, what has arithmatic got to do with it? A friend of mine likened it to buying a car, if you don't test drive a few, you'll never know what you do and don't like!

Its not about being picky, its about finding what you want. Only you know what you want, and you shouldn't settle because of the norms of society. Do what you feel best in your life and what makes you comfortable! Settle down with that person because they are who you wanna be with, not because you think its the right thing to do. If you rush something you might regret it!

There arent 'too many' boyfriends. You settle down with the one that makes you the happiest. Dont date more than one guy at a time. That is 'too many' boyfriends.

In todays day and age a person cant be picky enough. Choose wisely because you do not want to settle for second best.

How can you decide to settle down with the next one when you have no idea what the next one will even be like? He might turn out to be the worst you've ever met. Settle down with the one who feels right, regardless of numbers.
