[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my experience, most people who end up finding someone to marry before their mid 30s see their potential pool of partners as the people who are interested in them and pick from this pool without feeling like doing so is settling. In contrast, many of the people who stay single for a long time focus on a different potential pool of partners that includes people who are objectively way out of their league, and see a relationship with someone on their own level as settling. I use gender neutral pronouns here because I've seen this dynamic play out with men and women. [/quote] This is absolutely true. I've never seen a person over the age of 35, who wanted to be partnered but was single, who didn't have wildly unrealistic expectations. [/quote]
