By that question I mean, at what age do women realize they aren't going to get a rich, tall, superfit, passionate, caring, loving, sensitive and tough, exciting, and handsome soulmate? so then they realize they themselves aren't perfect either so they lower their expectations of men and try to have realistic expectations of men.
P.S
I haven't been dumped or anything so dont say "you will find the one! LOL!" im 16 and im just wondering

I think some here have missed your real question. You want to know at what age do women get more realistic in their search for a perfect partner. Its not age, but experience that will guide you. Experience gives you hints and clues. Its like looking for a perfect job. You try several times and if you can't get it, then you have two choices: go broke while you continue this search, or accept a less than perfect job. At least with working, you can still continue to look for a better job. You can't (theoretically) do this after you have chosen a mate. So far I have been no help at all. I would say that in general, if you haven't found a partner by age 30, then after that your choices get more limited, and there will be a greater proportion of divorced men out there. So now you have to be engaged by 28 or 29. Who can plan a wedding in less time? So this means you have met him by age 27. So get busy, you have 11 years left. Have fun looking. They say you have to kiss a few frogs before you find your prince.

This is the difference between realistic and unrealistic expectations. Some women will never realize their expectations. You can be attracted to some or all of the attributes you mention, but if you meet someone who turns out to be a really good friend, no matter whether he has those attributes or not, it could lead to a very satisfying relationship. Sometimes the most modest guy will really knock your socks off.
There are a couple of things you shouldn't compromise on, though, the guy should treat you well and be respectful (if he shows signs of violence -- RUN). I value grooming -- like taking a shower, changing to clean clothes and brushing your teeth!
So I'd say, just keep yourself open to all opportunities. That skinny guy with the glasses might just be amazing. (Or the short bald one.)
Sometimes it takes more than one try, too, because we're not perfect and we all can make mistakes.
(I don't think there is any "average" age for women to mature -- depends on who is making the judgment.)

Women are complex because of many factors, including hormones and society. Women are almost raised to be not happy. The are taught by media to be skinny and not be happy with themselves. So women in general have a lot of issues they need to deal with. Issues and maturity have nothing to do with each other. Women are usually mature around the age of 23-24. Men on the other hand take few more years to mature. On average, people are mature around the age of 26-27.

Your only a babe in the woods with alot of growth to be done and alot of learning to occur. When your old enough like 21, then come back here and ask us. What I can tell you is that everyone is different and men take alot longer to mature than females.

errm, interesting question! I guess you mature more and more everyday. There really isn't a peak time. And, I like to believe that women are capable of being attractive at any age. So, why shouldn't we get the men of our dreams at any age! Keep dreaming!

Because by then you'll be of some kind of mature understanding of the real world outside of your mum n dad.

Well, some women mature(emotionally & mentally) earlier than others because of their experiences in life. One could be 35 and still be immature in choosing a mate...it really depends.

depends on the woman, her family and the way she was brought up. If she's a 'daddys' girl, chances are she will never grow up. If she's a 'mommies' girl, she will grow up, but want approval for everything she does...
If she grew up on her own, (parents absent or abusive) she may have problems, but I bet she's a grown up and knows how to deal.
