Let me be clear. I am not talking about ALL women. I am talking about a population of women.
those that want to be married early, early twenties or so....will panic around 27-29 and are like 30+...lets just say 35ish AND STILL UNWED.
It's sad that you thought about wedding bells since childhood/teens, became an adult and it never happened. You've been wanting it to happen but it just. never. did. Sad...AF.
Just like someone who is fat, and dieting for 10 plus years and never has lost weight.
Just like someone who has bad credit/finances and after 10+ years is still broke after trying...for all that time.
Someone is going about reaching their destination in the wrong way. It's like watching a dementia patient trying to find his/her way home.

i don't think thats true.
a lot of women have very realistic standards.
they just ... have bad decision making and judgement. |
the stats prove otherwise |
that people have unrealistic standards?

Some women have unrealistic standards until they get older, then those preferences start coming down. Like that chick on that ABC special talking bout "At first he had to be 6'5, then it came down to 6'3, then 6'0...."

lol. i think thats why many older women find "love at first sight" they don't have much left to cling to.

Well then Nita, I'd have to agree with you. If you set out to do something from an early age and never accomplish it, then that makes you a failure. Like I said though, that makes you human. We all will fail at something or at least we're not all a complete success at everything we set out to do. Marriage, parenting, career, finances, the list goes on.

Marriage is dependant upon another person. You cannot compare it to losing weight which is a solitary effort and is a solitary endeavor. There seems to be an air of superiority amongst those who have ” found someone”

I want to be done having kids by 32-33 (that is, if I have them), so I guess I'd want to get married sometime between 27-30. If it doesnt happen that way, I'll be fine.

I'm hoping that all of these outlandish opinions are because y'all are looking at this hypothetically

i do think that there is an age when you need to realize that your standards may not be up to what you can get. time to turn the microscope on yourself. if it's that important to you, you need to just settle for something else b/c that guy/girl is not coming along. you've convinced yourself of something unobtainable for way too long.
