Marriage Minded Men


Do marriage minded men still exist?

I read profiles that say they are seeking marriage. Spoke on the phone with men saying they want exactly what I do. Go out on a dates with them and I hear about the ex wife who screwed them over. I hear about how marriage is over-rated. Is putting that they are interested in marriage simply a ploy to get dates?

As for this site all my emails so far have been from scam artists. Which is entertaining but all my dates are off of other sites.

Please no bashing my profile. I'm not going to look at yours and give my personal opinion of what I don't like about it. It doesn't hurt for people to be kind to each other every once in a while.

Thank you.

Hi Saddestangel!

Nice question! I don't check many profiles here but I was on a site when I did see many and I can tell you that a big percentage of the men in the age frames I checked (40-50 yr-old) used the next options about marriage: NOT NECESSARY. Many others used: I WILL NEVER DO IT AGAIN, or: IT'S OUT OF QUESTION.

It was a European site so I noticed that for some nations it was more wide-spread. For example, maybe 90% of the Dutch men were against marriage. Same in most of the Northern European countries. These are my observations.

The motive: fear. wave
Yeah I had a guy who said one of his interests was playing basketball. In his profile it said he was 3 ft. 2 inches tall.laugh
I guess if your young and stupid your get married, but I think for us that are getting on, like once your over 30 you then start to realize maybe its best never to get married, as then youve seen things in life and learnt more about people etc.
Youve seen what happens in marriages etc.
I have been on my own for almost 15 years now. I have often asked myself if I could ever adjust to being married to someone again. I am 58 years old and have survived on my ow so far, but it is difficult when I get together with my married friends and I am solo. Must be a chick thing.sad flower
I'm 52 and I've never been married ....I'm still waiting for the lucky one

Hi Sendsomeone! The question about adjusting worries me too.

And may I say that you look amazingly and much younger! thumbs up bouquet
I've never been married either which is why I'm not soured on the idea of it and also why I would still like to someday be married. Been proposed to now 3 times but always knowing it was the wrong person. I think many times women just want to be married for the sake of being married and say yes when they shouldn't. I've had more than one friend do that. The fear of being alone.
Yes, they do Angel, (sounds better than 1st part wink ), and for the record I 100% disagree with Rainbows first two posts.. wine beer cool

Yah Virgo,

It's true, it happens soemtimes.. but come on we are on a site for singels and some look for friendship some more then just that. We need think positive if not..Wtf we are all doing on a site like this doh hug
When I used to work in the prison system I was proposed to almost everyday. All the inmates were marriage minded. Just because a guy says he wants to marry you does not mean it's a good idea.thumbs down
I am always quick to point out that I am just looking for someone who is on the same path as I am when it comes to wanting to find their soulmate and eventually marry.

It by no means that because I go on a date or few dates with a man who feels the same that we are meant for each other. Its good to start off knowing that we are headed out on the same journey. We just might not reach the end of that journey with each other.

My son's father who I spent 4 hellish years with was an abusive alcoholic. I wasn't allowed to leave the apartment without permission or return even 5 minutes too late. So, I'm not looking for someone who has that type of mindset about women again, very old world as he was from Central America. I was the bread winner in the household.
Becoming ever more older and wiser of course Lazly.. laugh doh grin cool
and marrige has to be based on more than what we can do in bed ...and being friends who can do things together and enjoy each others idears and likes and laugh at each others jokes

why get married to only become strangers ?

when we can be so much more ...yes dear you can have the remote



teddybear
Yes Virgo custody of the remote should be included in the pre-nup.yay
Be careful what you wish for, remotes control all manner of things these days.. uh oh conversing grin cool
I don't mind giving up all control of the remote those I do hate when someone channel surfs endlessly and never chooses anything to watch! rolling on the floor laughing
The men or so called are nothing but little confused boys who think are ready for a real woman...but when they see a real they run the other way...what a joke.

pure losers I have a come across. I can only laugh when I read some of the profiles otherwise I will have to cry out of compassion for stupidity
Toni thumbs up laugh
I follow you Lazly.. wine And Toni, this song comes to mind.. laugh wine

Thank you Lazly, so do you! bouquet
Lazly you have the heart of a true romantic. This is a good thing. I guess I have become somewhat cynical. comfort
Thanks Lazly, I am just getting back on the romance scene after years of being a single mom...Now the kids are grown and I just want to share my life with someone very special... But I am waiting for God's timing...in the meantime I am having fun reading the blogs etc.

Thanks again...
Opss i was refering to Sendsomeoane..awww! well hyour sun pic Toni it can be amazing also :)

I apologize for my error bouquet
yes young men get married early because they miss there mums home cooking and having soeone to pick up after them and do their laundry


teddybear
YES, WE MOST CERTAINLY STILL DO EXIST!
no..
.. men grew brains these days...

comfort
Sadde laugh
sorry to say - men are able to write or say anything that woman wants to listen just for one reason... laugh

don´t forget, they are hunters, they are competitors, they need to feel as winners... and nothing wrong with that.

Be aware of those desperate and frustrated grin they are really sneaky, they are always bashing women and try to manipulate them, that all wrong has been on this Planet is just woman´s mistake, fault and error grin
Saddesangel, I am not bitter, i am fine and i am not looking, i am set with a nice person in my life. I am just telling you the truth of what i read on all these posts and forums. You should be patient with those guys because maybe they think you are the on who will understand them and explain to them in a nice way that you are not happy to hear all their past. I do mention my x in some case but only the good things that i have got from her and not comparing anyone with her because we are all individuals.
senssomeone you read my mind,i been alone 15 yrs too and i feel the same way you dowave
I consider myself to be marriage minded but I would only reserve that side of me for someone special enough. I think many men are adaptable and when we meet people we adjust our behaviours somewhat. When I go on dates I can't tell if she is the one but within 5 minutes I can definitely tell if she is not
