@SilentObZerver Your 20s are your first decade of being an independent adult (well, theoretically). You're exploring life, trying on different faces in different places. All the things that people talk about wanting to do — backpacking across Europe, becoming an actor, whatever — are things that can really only be done when you have the independence and vitality that you have in your 20s.
By the time you're 30, you've lived a bit of life. You've gained experience and, hopefully, maturity. You've also likely slowed down into the rhythm that the rest of your life will follow. You will have become who you are. At that point, partners can genuinely see if this person is the one they will, potentially, spend the rest of their lives with. You'll be more established, have a reasonably stable job, maybe even have some money socked away for the future. Maturity, stability — these are essential elements in making a marriage work.
