Thank you everybody for replying to my question. I guess this question is meaningless now for me, as my girlfriend has broken up with me last night and she has decided to go with another guy, fundamentally because of my hesitation for marriage.

I analyzed her too logically, weighing too much about our differences. I didn't treat her as a teammate to solve our common problems. We didn't communicate enough.

The past few hours was the darkest time of my life. Only now I realized how much I loved her. I regret it so much.

She made her choice just as you have to make yours. I feel your pain but these things have away of working out one way or the other.

I have a different take on late marriage: maybe its not the career that's holding you back, maybe its the quest for compatibility, the need to have a spouse that understands and supports your goals. This carries more weight than we normally give credit for. This may be why driven men who marry early frequently get divorced.

Just a theory

i am sorry.
