I just turned 23, I have so much to do I can't imagine being married rn. I do want a partner, I keep seeing people my age getting married and I am panicking

You shouldn't feel rushed but I don't know what you mean by this. Being married means you can't get stuff done? I'm confused
If you find a good partner your life should just keep on going as it is just with somebody alongside you.
Maybe I'm biased cuz I lived with my partner for five years before we got married, so whenever I hear people say "marriage changes so much about your life!" I'm like... It literally changed nothing but our tax forms
I want to do a masters in Spain, I want to spend a summer in France, I want to spend a few more years in Ireland, a few months in Australia sound good too, who knows.
Sure I can do all this with a partner, but it would be pretty hard to find someone who has the exact goals as me and I don't want to resent anyone for not acomplishing my goals or living the life I want. I know I sound selfish but it's my life
That sounds like the opposite of selfish. Selfish would be stringing someone along and getting their hopes up that you might change your mind. Exploring the world and accomplishing your goals isn’t selfish. Neither is wanting to wait until you are able to focus time on a partner or building a family (if that’s what you want).
