The age varies from man to man, but there are patterns that are easily identified: Most men who graduate from high school start thinking of marriage as a real possibility when they are 23 or 24. Most men who graduate from college don't start considering marriage as a real possibility until age 26.

According to a new study, it takes around six months, or 172 days, for a person to decide if the person they are dating is marriage material.
According to Match.com's findings, women are more likely to meet that special someone earlier in life at age 25, whereas men meet their match closer to 28. However, 50% of the folks the website surveyed all meet their partner at some point during their 20s.
After compiling these responses, we sorted them by geographic region (West, Midwest, South, and Northeast). We determined that the median engagement age in the United States is 27.2 years for women, and 28.7 years for men — a 1.5 year difference.

The gradual decrease in sex drive (libido) in men is common with aging. The rate of decline may vary per individual. However, most men retain some amount of sexual interest up to their 60s and 70s.
While men seem to be genetically predisposed to be attracted to women in their mid-to-late-20s, women tend to be attracted to men around their ages, if not older; this means men in their 30s have the best of both worlds. Men in their 30s are attractive to a wide range of women, from 20-somethings to women in their 40s.
The researchers found that ratings of physical attractiveness peaked at 30 and then gradually declined as people aged. A study published in the journal "Evolution and Human Behavior" found that men and women are considered most attractive in their late teens and early twenties.
A guy who is ready to propose will most likely demonstrate changes in his behavior, especially if you've been dating for several years already. As he tries to plan things secretly, he might act like he's busy with something that he tends to ignore your messages or requests.
Women in their 60s report the highest rate of infidelity (16%), but the share goes down sharply among women in their 70s and 80s. By comparison, the infidelity rate among men in their 70s is the highest (26%), and it remains high among men ages 80 and older (24%).
In summary, Women are the strongest between 26 and 37 years of age. Men are the strongest between 26 and 35 years of age. But of course there are individual differences between athletes and some people peak before or after that age window.

Most couples date for two or more years before getting engaged, with many dating anywhere from two to five years. Once the question is popped, the average length of engagement is between 12 and 18 months.
