I aint gettin any younger and i'm tired of smash and dash with these hoes..

Im ready to settle down and start a family or at least seriously commit to a chick..problem is, i dont trust these hoes and most importantly i dont trust myself..i dont want to get involved with a chick then once shes all wrapped up in it, i hav3 a change of heart and go back 2 bangin random ? ..

what do you think is the right age to settle down? then once i decide on who to settle down with, i still have years of trust issues (no drake) to work through..didnt worry about trusting a broad before bcuz i didnt care..now that i'm ready to retire the jersey, im paranoid like muthafuccah..

    There is no specific age, it depends on the person. It could be 40 for one person and 18 for the next person. Just depends on where you're at in your life.

    I feel like I've always been ready to "Settle down" and I'm only 19.

    Not when, IF, they decide to.

    It seems like you already have. As long as ya' chick feel the same, shouldn't really matter.

    Whenever u feel ur ready. Can't place a specific age limit on it. For most men I'd think around 30 is optimal if u want an answer to the question though. I personally have no issues w/ marriage itself...it's the ? divorce & child support laws I donte agree w/. A ? taking an L in the courtroom if it don't work out.

    financial stability.
    longevity.
    what your looking in a woman, is a woman who makes a good mother/woman that also has the same mindset.
    your ability to provide.
    parental skills.
    Shelter, in terms of family... are you thinking about getting a house?
    Infidelity, not only for yourself either.
    Children.

    lastly, if this is something you really want...

    Been settled down since 16, but I'd say a good age to really settle down would be 30-40. Big gap but between that you can settle to be more stable overall in life.

    How old are you t/s?

    You should settle when you get all the sex out your system and have your finances right and definitely make sure your girl is on the same page as you are.

    This shouldn't be based on a specific age but rather on how you feel.
    Whenever it's right and not a moment sooner.

    YOU CAN'T SETTLE DOWN WITH "GAS ON YOUR CHEST"

    MEANING IF YOU STILL FEELING THAT NEED/WANT TO RIP AND RUN THE STREETS OR NET

    JUST AS IMPORTANTLY A LEVEL OF RESPECT, UNDERSTANDING AND MATURITY HAS TO BE HELD
    AND MAINTAIN BY BOTH PARTIES

    AND YOU CAN'T LET NO ONE FEEL MORE "SPECIAL" THAN THE ONE YOU LAY UP WITH EVERY NIGHT
    AND ITS HELP A HEEP, IF YOUR POCKETS/ CREDIT ARE LOOKING RIGHT

    yeah all this right here, I would just add in to make sure you live with her for a while too. Get the real feel for how she handles bills and her day to day ? .

    When youre ready to settle down you will. But just cuz you settle down doesnt mean you still wont be "bangin random ? ". You just wont be chasin random ?

    I dont think theres a certain time when people should start thinking about settling down. Whatever feels right for you is what you should do. I mean im 23 and been with the same girl for 2 years now. Its crazy cause I aint plan it that way, my plan was to stay single and ? as many chicks as possible till I was like 30, but I met shorty and things just progressed to what is now, and there really wasn't too much thought behind it, it just happened naturally and in a really comfortable way.
