[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's only difficult for women who have unrealistic expectations of what they "deserve" in a potential spouse (looks, job, money, emotional stability, etc.)

If they are holding out for an A+ guy, they better be bringing an A+ package to the table.

Very true. And unrealistically high standards may be the reason they're still single in their 30s in the first place.[/quote]

I have several friends in their 30s/40s who are still single. They talk about how they will someday meet someone who is everything that they are looking for/throw out seriously crazy prerequisites.  I think they would rather turn down every potential mate due to their lack of ability to meet their crazy standards, vs take the chance at getting hurt.[/quote]

Being single does not equal being celibate.

To the rest, I'm on the tail end of my 30s and am currently pursuing having a child on my own, while dating. It takes the pressure off the guy to be all things and we can just enjoy getting to know each other.[/quote]
This has to be the stupidest life strategy I've ever encountered.  You've clearly never been around children if you think you can "enjoy getting to know" someone while pregnant or with a very young child.  If you are pursuing having a child on your own, you should be comfortable with being out of the dating pool for at least two years because a pregnant woman or a mother of a very young child is at the very bottom of the dating market - not to mention too busy for dating, in all likelihood.

+ 1. Yes, this is really a very flawed approach on so many levels [/quote]
