[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I think about the womanizing men sometimes I wonder why they need to “settle down”.

Their market value keeps increasing. If they are handsome and make good money, they can sleep with so many women and never have to endure a dead bedroom.

They can get companionship and validation through various friends with benefits type arrangements.

Why even put up with marriage? [/quote]

That lifestyle eventually gets very, very empty.[/quote]

Does it though.  For some people it may, others not so.  I knew a man who was disabled and lived in a wheelchair.  Never married and never had kids.  He lived with his mother until she died and then lived alone for many years until he died.  He had hobbies and he went up to the club every day, there were a ton of men who would go and eat together and they had a betting club together.  When he died he had so many people there to mourn him.  He was out every day socialising.

I agree with the other poster who said it's not about dying alone, because he was alone when he died, as the majority of people are.  It's about between now and then and he had a very full life surrounded by a ton of people who use to help him and support him, pretty much like family though none were blood related.  People that wept at his loss, real tears.

Life is what you make it and as long as you do what makes you happy you'll be ok in the end.  So if a man doesn't want to marry, so be it.  A marriage is only good if it is happy.  If the marriage isn't happy then it makes your life hell.  There is such a thing as being lonely in marriage, isn't that empty as well.[/quote]
