    I used to work for a law firm in the finance department. My manager was woman who was in her early 30's.

    About a year after I started working there, she was getting married. I went to her wedding.

    One day she goes, "It was my goal to get married by 35."

    She was so desperate to get married, in fact, she ended up marrying a guy who was jobless and didn't have his own car.

    Now I hear he's a warehouse manager.

    It's just that simple.

    can you picture yourselves together when you are 80, sitting on your front porch, sipping ice tea, rocking in rocking chairs saying nothing at all - just enjoying each others company?


    that is DEFINITELY the sign right there.

    This can be true in that I work as a nurse with a couple that have been married for 67 years. The husband has always told me he pictured growing old with his wife whom he married back in 1940.

    Even with an occasional tiff between them they're pretty happy together after ALL these years.

    I've done that same picture with my partner and THAT scenerio sits very well with me. Nice analogy.

    however I know that men that behave like an asshole by make degrading, mean comments to a woman the way that you did don't get married. and if on the off chance that they are already married won't stay that way for very long...

    Agreed. :)

    That cheeseburger remark was some world-class douchebaggery. :rolleyes:

    well, as my friend says "my future husband is currently unhappily married." If a guy gets married as young as his twenties, there's a good chance it was a mistake and he'll be divorced by the time the good women are ready to get married anyway.

    I got married at 30 and I'm a guy

    My wife is 4 years younger then me

    I think may have been married earlier in life if I met the right girl, but I hooked up with my wife by luck really when I was 28

    There's no way to know what age is a good age, it depends on the couple

    Yes, in a perfect world, nice people get married and mean people stay single. Wow, I may have demonstrated my ass-i-tude, but I'd rather be coarse than inexplicably naive.

    If that's how you interpreted it, then maybe you are the one with issues. Anger was the last emotion I was feeling, but it's curious that you had the tendency to superimpose it over my post.

    If you put some thought to it, then you might realize that I was only trying to help her with her situation. Losing weight is a great idea for any woman who is having problems attracting men.

    Im not even going to dive into that last comment because its useless, you have your thoughts on the world and nothing i can say is going to change them. in your head you are convinced you're right. @ the original post it just is a low thing to say somebody who might get worked up about it.

    to AmentsChick i say just stay patient it will work out

    Meanwhile, it's not low to write off an entire demographic of men?

    What is the double-standard here, folks? A little tit-for-tat and I am the one who is uncouth? Please....

    well if you want to marry a mean, coarse bitch then you'd have your perfect match.

    just don't think that any decent, nice girl would ever want to marry you

    there's lots of nice girls that would much sooner stay single that put up with your assinine comments

    OMG I am just laughing right now. Oh boy, it would probably break your heart to know just how unbelievably wrong you are. If you sleep better at night believing what you just wrote, then I'm happy for you.

    Look, for those of you who have not yet figured it out or just haven't had the time to give it some thought, views like prism's and amentschick's are examples of the negative connotation that aged, single males have to face in everyday society.

    Not only is it distastefully judgmental, but it also is a contributing factor in the pressure that many people feel to hurry up and get married without much thought to the future.

    The result is the countless broken homes and the deterioration of the moral fibers that hold us all together as a community.

    assholes spouting b.s. don't break my heart. if nice decent girls are beating down your door to get to your assinine self why are you posting on-line? or are you just taking a little break from treating them like shit long enough for them to run away, in the hope that the next one will be the mean, coarse bitch that will stick around to take your crap?

    here are just a few of your misconceptions:

    married men had girls beating down their door before getting married

    anyone who posts something less than courteous online must be that way in person

    anyone who posts online must have trouble finding dates

    women know who the assholes are, and even when discovering such is the case, immediately run from said relationship

    way, way off.

    your being single wouldn't have ANYTHING to do with your being distastefully judgemental?

    I never said anything about wanting to get married....as i don't believe in marriage

    But you were quick to conclude that single people are in a way deserving of their situation because of their abrasive natures. Again, judgmental.
