I'm having a "young life crisis". Scared of never finding the right guy even though I'm 15?

So my mom met my dad when she was 14 and they have been in love forever. My brother met his girlfriend of 6 years when he was 14. I'm almost 16 and I still have only met one guy that meets my standards and was interested in me. I want a smart, nice and really funny guy who loves animals who is also very attractive.

I just had this thought that if I go to undergraduate school then get my minor in photography and travel the world for a year, I will be a year older than all the other people in graduate school (like dating possibilities)

I will be 28 when I'm completely done with college. I'm scared that I'm never going to get married. It's not that guys aren't interested in me. It's that there are very few (available) nice guys. The only ones I know that are attractive, nice, funny and smart are my brother, my dad and my ex. Soo... yeah. I feel like I'm never going to find that guy

Update:

Why is that too high? It's just like me, except guy version. I have met guys like this. I know they aren't mythical creatures or anything

Update 2:

Wow. I'm not trying to act like a grown up. You're the immature one if you're just going to bash me for posting this. I am not going to marry young for fear of being left alone.

    You're all just babies trying to act like grown ups.

    At 15 you shouldn't be looking for Mister or Missus RIGHT!

    No wonder the divorce rate is so high. All you insecure kids are so worried that you haven't found your "Perfect Partner" by age 18 that you marry whoever is willing to marry you out of sheer fear of being left on the shelf.

    What can I say? Some people get married and some people don't.

    I'm 31 year old female and as single as can be. I also went to University but I graduated when I was 25.

    I don't know why some people get married and some people don't. Just deal with it.

    I was kind of afraid of the same thing most of my life but the most when I was 24, I just felt like it wouldn't happen.

    I still want to meet someone, (tried dating sites, Church, social groups for YEARS) but the older I get the more I feel at peace.

    I think, in a sense, you are putting your standards a bit high but, the fear, I believe, that you're feeling is legitimate. I'm 17, nearly 18 but, a year ago, I had that same fear. But, don't be too terribly hard on yourself. You will eventually, and this I can promise, find that someone who is perfect- for you. I'm not saying that they'll be perfect to everyone but, to you, they will be. And, that's the main thing. It's best if they're perfect in your eyes and you're perfect in theirs. It just takes time. But, you'll find someone- eventually. Even if it takes a few years. :)

    If you're that worried about finding the right guy, the best thing you can do is to socialize as much as you can. By socializing, your network will become much bigger.

    Since you'll have more friends, those friends could introduce you to their guy friends. And the more friends you have, the more guys you could be introduced to.

    They don't even have to be close friends; just get on their good side.

    Look, you WILL find the right guy. Just keep yourself open. (But not TOO open)

    Well personally I think you are setting your standards too high. No guy will ever be "perfect." No PERSON can be perfect. My advice to you is to start paying attention to other guys that would normally not catch your eye. Not only will this change your dating life but it will introduce new kinds of people you wouldn't have found appealing previously. Really, you should try it. You never know who you might find:)

    Well. I am going to be honest with you. You are only sixteen and why are you worried about finding someone. you shoud live your life go to school do what you can while you have the chance because with commitment comes responsibility and change. and Why not let your true love find you? You never know where you might just meet that special someone so give yourself a chance...

    YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO BUILD YOUR SELF CONFIDENCE.

    MAKE EVERYTHING IN YOUR LIFE RIGHT. LEAD A LIFE WORTH OF EXAMPLE. KINDA LIKE THE BEST PERSON YOU CAN POSSIBLY BECOME.

    YOU'RE 28. NOT 35. NOT 40. YOU STILL HAVE TIME. JUST ENJOY YOUR LIFE. MEET MORE PEOPLE. ITS THE ONLY WAY YOU NARROW DOWN THE RIGHT ONE. MEETING THE RIGHT PERSON ISN'T A MAGICAL FEAT. IT WON'T JUST HAPPEN. ONLY FAIRYTALES HAVE BRAINWASHED AN ENTIRE EDUCATED NATION INTO BELIEVING SO.

    REALISTICALLY, MEET PEOPLE AND SOCIALIZE. YOU'LL BE AMAZED.
