At either 18 or 24 I would just enjoy the person for the moment and not worry about the future.

At that age I was devoted to working, with a secondary interest in finishing school and getting some financial security and appropriate housing.

Dating was a distant third priority, and the long term suitability of partners not even a concern. There is so much that can interfere with a relationship forming: moving; career, lifestyle, or family objectives developing in incompatible directions.

Personally, I think that's an age for seeing a variety of people and getting some diverse data on what people are like. I also think it is much too soon for being in love.
EXCELLENT RESPONSE! I have three teen-agers and this is exactly how I advise them when they start with these kinds of questions. They have their entire lives ahead of them and they should be concentrating on forming their own lives right now. That includes dating different people, finishing school, getting the career, traveling, etc., etc., etc.......just living their lives first!
