Re: How young is too young??
I'd like to take a different spin on this and see what the board thinks. While it's agreeable that there is a wide range of maturity in this lifestyle, and while I think that those that have posted are probably big exceptions to the rule, we have found (as being in our early 30's) that we find those that are younger than us tend to have more cancellations, have more problems getting together, and more "last minute" things that come up then say, those that are 35 or older. That doesn't mean that they shouldn't swing per se, but I think that this is something that occurs on a broader scale than just our observations.
I don't attribute this to having children, because we know that couples in the latter age range still have that to deal with as well, even very young children. Is this a maturity thing? Do those that are over 35 just have more of a commitment than those that are younger? I can't believe that those that are younger have more going on in their lives, I would actually tend to think the opposite. Have you had this happen or seen it to some degree?
Again, not finger pointing here on the board, the fact that many of you contribute is a testament to your knowledge and maturity levels. Just trying to put a different spin on the question....
