I know any number of good, hard working men who never married. Tried to find the right girl but it just did not happen no matter how hard they looked. What was available was not worth the time or effort.

My uncle’s wife died when he was in his early 40s, a couple of years later, I asked him would he possibly remarry. He said, “I’ve dated several women but they all have too much baggage”.

For the women, join a conservative club at the school; or date men who are in blue-collar jobs. Plenty of guys are great bread-winner who are electricians, welders, etc.

Furthermore, those guys are more apt to be the settling down type too.

I would not advise a religious woman to go after an atheist. not a good match, and she would be better off without him and vice-versa.

Deserve has nothing to do with life. We deserve nothing

I’m quite happy that I didn’t get what I “deserved”.

There’s nothing wrong with being 36 and bald. You’re sturdy and steady and look at all the money you save by not having to have haircuts or tons of hair care products! Better bald than dirty dreadlocks. Hang in there.

Just do a Trump, let them grow really long and comb them over the top. LOL. Don’t forget to keep your sense of humor.

These college girls want someone who is more “successful” than they are, more advanced, more established in a professional career.

Right up til she files for divorce and steals his stuff, then she's not interested in marrying up.

My older brother married a Filipino. married for 7 yrs. HE paid for her parents to come to the States and out of the squalor. 7 yes to the DAY she filed for divorce. Took him for EVERYTHING. Then after the divorce was finalized, she found out that he had been buying 10 acres of beautiful land in Montana, 10 yrs before the marriage. So she told her lawyer about it, lawyer petitioned the court to reopen the case, court stole it from him and gave it to her with no ownership on his part any longer. Land probably has oil under it.

Why would a guy get married in these days???

Women think they’re guarding the Hope Diamond. If a man talks to them they think it’s because of their Hope Diamond, if you want to have lunch it’s because you want their Hope Diamond. If she’s happy with you, the Hope Diamond seals the deal. When she gets mad at you over nothing, it’s because she gave up her Hope Diamond for you. When she’s such a “b” you have to escape, she thinks her Hope Diamond will bring you back.

I wouldn’t flame him.

But I’d tell him that the females who tend to lose their looks early most likely are hard livers and tend to be liberal. It’s not uncommon for conservative women, who take care of themselves and look better to begin with, to maintain their good looks into middle age and beyond.

Dude’s misinformed.

First time posting, but as a college educated conservative woman in her early 30s, I am having a heck of a time dating. People are very non-committal these days, men and women both, with very little view of the big picture or the consequences of their actions. With the recent Ashley Madison and Josh Duggar news, and my own experiences dating men who told me they were single but weren’t, I am about ready to give up on my dream of marriage and kids.

...millenials girls going through dating services are looking for men twice their ages...

I suspect they may also be looking for a loving father to treat them like a princess, which many of them never experienced and long for (from 50% divorce rate).
