This is very good advice from pp. Your guy friends are right that you need to be aggressively looking, online dating, etc, not least because you might want kids and want all options open to you fertility-wise, and 35 is approaching fast, which is an important fertility milestone for women. Plenty of women have responded saying 'just don't get married at all-it sucks.' Well okay but your question wasn't 'should I get married?' If you want to get married in this area at your age you need to put some effort into finding a mate. I married at 35 out of sheer luck but by then I was already considering I might be enjoying the single beloved aunt life forever. D.C. Is a tough city for single women. You also shouldn't waste time on guys who aren't looking to settle down (no matter how fun they are!) |
. Umm...wouldn't this mean the guys are right, that most men are already married by her age, making it harder for her to find single guys (although she could marry a divorcee.) |

+1 this happened in our group with a few people. The key is not to waste two years on a guy. Give it six months, max. Just Move on, don't try to 'work on' things and/or expect to change him. |

Aaron Rodgers is gay, and Ronaldo very well might be as well. Those are paid beards, idiot. Most straight dudes marry women their own age. |
[ 39 year old divorcee, I am always taken aback when I see women clamoring to find a husband and get married. I want to yell from a mountain top that marriage is designed to benefit men. Period. Why would you want to enter into an arrangement that isn't designed with your best interest in mind?? I did all of the heavy lifting in my marriage and my husband still had the audacity to cheat. I left at 37, never looked back and my life couldn't be better. Meanwhile, my ex would do anything to get back what he had and has been trying to find my replacement with no success. |
You need a do not touch warning label |
So she doesn't break men's hearts? You'd like that, wouldn't you? You know she could break yours ![]() |
You’d be happy going to dinner or drinks with your wife and run into guys she slept with? |
Guys? What, an entire team? That would be awkward. |
Marriage is a trap for both sexes. Women only want it so they can have kids and men only want it for daily sex.
The divorce rate in my city is so bad that I don’t even entertain a man who is nor do I want to befriend a woman who is. |
A lie. But keep up the hyperbole. |
LOL sure being a SAHM is bad. You are crazy. I hope one day you will realize that you are to blame for you life not others(or those evil men). Take some responsibility for yourself princess. |
