Aaaaand...what would that be? Because as we ALL KNOW, any never married man over 30 has serious hidden issues.

i am 42, married for a long time, and when i look around i think every single guy i ever had even a minor crush on is married with kids. there basically nobody left that i would have interest in if i had to look around. good stuff moves fast.

LOL, does Amal Amaluddin know that?

She's certainly smart enough to know.

She's drop dead gorgeous and incredibly wealthy. Normal rules don't apply.

Nothing incredible about her wealth, a dime a dozen in central London.

Yeah I don't know. I mean George Clooney is 54 years old and there's a 16 yr age gap. If he was 40 years sure..but I'm not really sure he's "that eligible a bachelor frankly as maybe a younger movie star. Even if he has preserved his looks and is rich. So I do think Amal Amaluddin did have to "settle" in a way.

+1. Who under 40 actually talks about George Clooney? Who really considers a 50+ never married guy a catch?

This is Clooney's second marriage. He was married to Talia Balsam in the late 80s/early 90s.

...you do realize you can propose to him, right?

My wife proposed to me. Same with a lot of my friends who are married. Then again, I'm from California, and we of the West Coast master race aren't saddled with a lot of the hilarious WASP bullshit you guys are, so that might account for the difference.

Ask your wife if she would have preferred that YOU had proposed to her instead, and report back, please.

PP here.

You must have extremely low standards for communication if you don't think we'd thoroughly discussed the topic. She was glad I didn't propose, she finds the concept of men proposing to be archaic and sexist. (She also didn't wear a white dress to our American wedding, opting for a dress in a color she describes as 'slut red'.)

Tldr: feminists are better than you at everything, including love and marriage.

Thanks for reminding me why even though I am a woman and believe in gender equality that I hate feminists!

Worked out for her - to not marry till late thirties, and to marry one of the "rejects" by age in your book.

Hmm...she married at 36 to a guy heading into his mid-50s. His "hot" days were behind him. He's rich and famous, so I'll give you that. Still, so NOT what you're average 30yo woman dreams of settling down with.
