When Did You Finally Stop Worrying About Marriage?

Salaam everyone, I'm posting this because the whole marriage hunt has been weighing on me for a while, and honestly, I'm feeling kinda down. I'm a Muslim brother in my mid-20s from Toronto. Alhamdulillah, I've got a steady full-time gig, I try to keep up with my deen, stay close to family, and work on myself-so I really feel like I'm in a good place to tie the knot. The tough part is actually meeting the right person. I've put myself out there in different ways, chatted with people, checked out some matrimonial platforms, and even let my family and friends know I'm looking. But everything seems to fizzle out after the first few talks. Sometimes it feels like everyone else is getting married and I'm just spinning my wheels. I'm not chasing some unrealistic dream. I just want a wife who cares about faith, family, kindness, and building a calm life together. But lately, the whole thing is draining me emotionally, and I can't help but wonder if other folks are in the same boat. For those of you who found your spouse a bit later than you hoped, how did you keep your head up and stay patient through it all? Any advice or stories from your own journey would mean a lot. JazakAllahu Khair.

Bro, I'm 33 and still waiting. Tawakkul is key-Allah's timing is perfect. Keep making dua.

Lol it's brutal out there. I'm 29 and not even close. But wallahi, seeing my married friends' struggles made me appreciate the single life a bit.

Honestly, the process is draining everywhere. In Karachi it's the same. Just keep your intentions pure and don't settle for less deen.

Mid-20s is young, man. Don't rush.

Got married at 31. Before that, I was stressing hard. Then I focused on my salah and let go. It happens when you least expect it.
