Until then

One needs to feel secured and comfortable with herself before she can feel the same way in relationship. One needs to really know what she wants in life for herself and what she wants in a relationship before disembarking into the next phase. Most importantly, one needs to understand that everything takes effort; relationship does not magically blooms. It's a commitment. Is one ready to add on another commitment into the list when one is still struggling with everything else on the list?

Until then, one isn't ready yet no matter how strong is the urge to be in a relationship. Just because everyone else is doing it, does not mean one has to do it too.
