JMO but too many people get married way too early I think a lot of your friends getting married will be divorced in a few years. Hopefully not, as many will probably have kids if they haven't already, but the odds are not in their favor.
There is living your life and getting to grow into yourself as well as setting and achieving some goals in life that you might want to do single. Getting married isn't the goal of your life finding someone who is right for you and treats you the way you want to be treated is
when you find that person it is up to you and them to decide if getting married 'now' is right or not.
I think the only thing you could do is try expanding your circle of friends to new younger people maybe they all won't be in a rush to get married or ultimatly moving away from your area may be better for you to meet and find other people not in a rush to settle down.
I can totally understand the 'sluts and people who bang 27 people in a night' I've never needed or felt the way most people I know have about I'm young and want to have fun=bang lots of people like there is no tomorrow and/or do drugs like it's 1969. But that seems to me how many people think, either they are going to marry their sweetheart at 19-20 if not at 18, or they are 'young having fun' there are not a lot of I don't know what you'd call them 'stable' young people enjoying life with no pressure to settle down or be party animals.
Best advice I think I could say is to just try meeting new people outside of where you usually encounter the 'slut' type people. It sounds like where you live people are 'brainwashed' into getting married so they can 'start their lives' when getting out of your parents house and on your own is the real 'start' of your life.
If you meet a cool chick your really interested in and she is in a relationship or engaged break them up if you succeed they weren't 'meant to be' if you fail she wasn't ready for
you.
