I want a woman I can share companionship, comfort and affection (not even referring to sex) with. I want to take long drives to the middle of nowhere and enjoy the view with no other concerns in life and be able to do that at any time. I'm ok with the idea of marriage but I don't want kids or to settle down in one spot or to become too established. Is this all too unrealistic?
Just 10 years ago that would of been reasonable.
But nowadays more and more women have higher standards for the man they date while simultaneously demanding men lower their standards for them. Singlehood rates are off the charts nowadays especially in your age category.
Also many women who “say” they are in relationships nowadays are stretching the truth too. They are either in a friends with benefits which isn’t a real relationship (but they like to think of it as that), dating other women or have some twisted notion that a “virtual relationship” or a “fantasy” is a real relationship.
Not to say your expectations aren’t impossible and that special women doesn’t exist. She does. But are up against a lot more nowadays compared to even 10 years ago. Your best bet is to stay patient and not give up from being jaded (a lot guys have given up)

It's pretty contradictory energy. The kind of lady who is down companionship and long drives in the country isn't (generally) going to be the kind of lady who doesn't also want to settle down.
That said; all it takes is one. I guarantee you that those kinds of ladies are out there. But you'd have to be a particular kind of guy to meet one of them. And even then, it'll pretty much happen by chance.
Lots of people find someone to travel the world with and so on. Everything you mentioned, Sounds realistic. And a lot of people no longer want kids apparently. But you have to realize life won't always be drama free. There will eventually be concerns. You can only run away for so long
I like that saying that goes to the effect of "There is the person out there that you want, and the person that you need." You'll probably be surprised when you find someone who makes you want for things you haven't before simply because of her natural influence.
AI Opinion
The only unrealistic thing about your desires is thinking they're unrealistic! 😉 Seriously, wanting companionship, comfort, and spur-of-the-moment adventures speaks to a free spirit, not immaturity. It's all about finding someone whose life goals align with yours. Lovebombing alert: plenty of people dream about a life unfettered by the traditional anchors of kids, settled spots, and the whole white picket fence scenario. The trick? Communication is key! Make sure you're upfront about your views on kids and settling down. There's a lid for every pot, and your desires are just another flavor of love in the vast menu of relationships. Keep your heart and your options open, and you'll find someone who's eager to jump into the passenger seat for those long drives to nowhere. 🚗💑

At your age, I would say that seems reasonable. You at least know you want to be with just one woman. Most guys in your age group only care about who they are going to score next. You seem mature in that sense.
No, I don't think that it's immature. I have the same preferences pretty much for a guy.
No, on the contrary, so many women looking for an actual serious companion and partner are looking for this. You’ll be ok.
No, but you will have to find someone who wants the same things so you gotta be very clear when communicating that you don’t want kids and marriage so you don’t ens up with someone who thinks you’re open to that later on.
The best indicator a person is right for you isn't a list.
It is how that person makes you feel.
Oh hat, what have women reduced some men to. This is far from immature, this is very mature for you to know what you want from a woman.
