He is only 21, FFS.
How many 21 year olds, these days, want to settle down?
These are the years to gain experience so you know what you want when you are ready for a proper commitment.
It ain't rocket surgery.

I suggest people play the field, at this young age.

That may not be something innocent people are ready for or desire. Like, Porn used to traumatize me.
From my perspective, it is a sensible, mature thing to do.

But as long as they are ready to do it and not invest emotionally, which is harder for younger people, it could be fun. I don't believe that it would be helpful.
We will have to agree to disagree.

I have a lot of experience with not only playing the fiels but it hasn't brought me any closer to making it work with different people. You have to observe your issues and theirs, and avoid making them worse, but aim to build a safe and fulfilling interaction.
With experience usually comes greater wisdom.
I find it hard to believe you would have a lesser understanding of what you wanted out of life now than when you were 21.

They could be missing chances for serious relationships that will give them beautiful moments. They just have to be careful about what the people they want to date do, not what they say they are like. A majority can present themselves misleadingly up to the times that are to test if they can be respectful, kind and communicative.
Well, I am of the firm belief that very few 21 year olds intimately know who they are, let alone, what sort of life partner they want.
You are lovely.
I don't want to upset you.
So let us agree to disagree.
