To follow on what Mark's implying, so some self-searching and be sure those are things you want, and are not just feeling pressured by society/gf/whatever into following the "normal" path because that's what you're expected to do.
It's not for everyone. I realized when I was of an age where being a parent was still likely that I didn't want to spend a quarter of a million dollars to have a screaming turd geyser come live with me.
Of course, that means you miss out on some positives, but it's worked really well for me. My misanthropic nature might have exposed itself then.
Arranged marriage is very rare in the US, so I don't think we'll be able to give you much insight into that.
Wait until your both grown up, or you might grow in very different directions. My first marriage at 19 didn't work out so well. Second in mid 30s has been great for over 20 years so far.
Couldn't tell you about kids. Have never wanted that and found partners who agreed. I'll just say "don't have kids to please someone.". Not fair to you or to the kids
So much perspective shared here. Really love the wisdom - grateful to be part of this group.
Curious for those of you that are or have been married — how did you meet your life partners?
Playing hockey.

I met my first true love (lolz 19yo) in Botany Lab at ASU. I often think about her and wonder how she's doing. Initial FB stalking ~10+ years ago yielded no results.
T-boned by a drunk driver. Start working with a massage therapist. After a few sessions in the middle of getting worked on my massage therapist informs me that she can no longer work on me cuz she wants to have the secks.
If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain
That’s great news. You’re crazy to even headkick at all though. Go find a safer hobby like juggling torches and gasoline canisters.
Por que no los dos?

Hobby group. We met a bit at one event, then saw each other a another 4 or 5 months later and had just enough connection for me to try a cheesy line on her. It didn't work, but she was interested anyway and amused rather than annoyed.
current one...only 7 months in, so doesn't qualify for life partner status, but it's indicative of where I'm at in my life. I went up and introduced myself to her while she was waiting at the coffee shop, said I was interested to get to know her and asked her if she'd like to go for a coffee or a drink or go for a walk with me.
had done some research and knew her name and a little about her (I live in a small community).
would never have done this in my younger years but these days, I realise there's nothing to lose and something to gain

Right era, but I don't like pina coladas. My wife was sorting the responses and put me in the maybe pile. One of her friends talked her into putting me in the yes pile.

Pretty ossumly random 3rd party intervention for such a life changer
