I notice alot older women tell me that dont want to get married. I respet their decisions. But When I tell them, I dont want to get married, they have a problem. Men can be happy without getting married just like women. Please, dont respond by telling me I will find somebody special. I hear that all of the time.
Women think that marriage makes for a perfect relationship or something... of course, ask them to explain the appaulingly high divorce rate!
I think there's a fundamental flaw in marriage... people quit trying to "romance" and "attract" each other once they're married. After all, the vows were for "till death do you part", so why make an effort to keep the other person's interest anymore? When you know that the person you love has the option to walk away, I think it probably keeps you on your toes.
I can't ever see myself being married... I can't even see myself ever having a girlfriend at this point. The singles scene in Texas is just aweful. I ran out of good ideas a long time ago, so now I'm on CS... and it ain't workin out any better than anything else I've tried unfortunately. I have mostly women from other continents checking my profile out... which doesn't do me a bit of good.

I am one of "those" who does not wish to marry again. Life partnership, most certainly, but I am past child bearing age, self supportive, receive a decent income, and am totally happy with my life. I am not seeking a man to complete me, just include me in his ideals and dreams. Huge difference so I have no need for marriage.
maybe the women YOU DO meet are the ones that want to get married....and that is probably your problemo!
You can TELL them that you don't want to get married but in some instances, I for one, would think , ok, not married..but does that also mean NOT to get serious?
word it differently....
maybe say something like "I love the idea of being with someone for the long haul but I DON"T see myself getting married"

They want to get their balls & chains around your neck and ankles... but by telling them you're not interested in marriage they realise there's not much chance of that so that's when they have a problem

They weren't being honest, then. If I feel that I don't want to get married again, and I tell you that, and then you tell me the same...well, why would I freak? It means that we're on the same page. A piece of paper doesn't make a marriage...hearts do.

Because answering in the negative to a marriage proposal from a woman is a MAJOR letdown for most. Some never really recuperate and become men-haters and the rest never fully bring themselves to trusting any guy... Not that we help

i thin its your choice whether you want to et marriued or not and as long as you tell the women early on in the relationship i dont see why they should ahve a problem wih it . not sure whether youve put on your profile that you dont want to get married , if you have then only the women who are ok with that will answer you. well apart from the kind who think they can change someone
Baddabing66: I man can be happy wihout ever getting married just like a woman. Why do women have a problem with that? We men have same right as women do.
Not all women have a problem with that. Find one who doesn't...there are many of us out here.
