This was my brother 15 years ago. He was a serial monogamist until an unfortunate phase of single life that coincided with all of his friends marrying, and it made him panic. Now he’s still sad because he got desperate and got engaged to the first woman he interacted with on match. He has kids with her and moved for her job and now he’s depressed because he married so he wouldn’t be alone, not because he likes her or because she’s nice.
Yep.
That said, we really don’t know what he’s bringing to the table to attract a nice young woman. I’m not even talking about finances. No one wants to date the depressed guy or the one having a pity-party.
