[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The title of this thread should read "marrying a complete douch-bag because I'm too old for anything better - at least he's not beating me". It's clear OP recognizes this guy's faults and has every intention of marrying him anyway - she just wants to vent. Which is why she seems troll-like, because nothing we could say or advise would change her course.
Good luck, OP. [/quote]

PP again. Just wanted to add that you CAN do better - I do not agree with your perception that you must settle because you're 40.

Do you know OP? You don't know if she can do better. If she could have, she probably would have. [/quote]

That's so mean!  But OP was probably a troll, so I guess she sort of deserves it.   :twisted:

I disagree that she can't do better on principle.  Being alone is better than being with a douchebag.  There are unmarried people out there who live satisfying, happy lives without ever getting married OR having children.  My aunt never got married and never showed any interest in romance.  She is one of the happiest, most accomplished people I know.  She has a fantastic career, financial stability, friends, family, a beautiful home, everything she wanted for her life.  She even helped raise me and says she feels like she got all of the benefits of motherhood by watching me grow up.

You don't have to be like everyone else to be happy.  /Off-topic rant over.[/quote]

but OP is already like everyone else in that sense that she wants a husband, kids and a million dollar house in the suburbs. she said so herself and in fact ask rhetorically "what woman doesn't want this...". so she is not like your aunt or "unmarried people out there living happy, satisfying lives...". of couse it is possible to be happy and single and all that, but from the facts presented here, it doesn't seem that OP is the type - all. therefore, the view that "being alone is better than being a douchebag" is highly questionable in her case.[/quote]

Yes that is correct I have been alone for years and really prefer beng a couple. And yes I want kids in a stable environment.[/quote]
