It is nice to have somebody to love and who loves you in return, and children are great. The problem is the vast majority of women alive today have been so steeped in feminist crap that even the ones who profess to not be man hating flaming feminists are still actually feminists.
I know a few single women from way back when I was young who are now in their 50s and single and they are so self-centered that they talk about finding a good man as if they deserve one, but I never hear anything from them about wanting a man they can love. They want all the trimmings of a realtionship but have no capability to return the favors.
Thereafter is much, much better.
There is an endless supply of 22-24 year olds for men up to 60 or so, and getting them becomes much easier as a man becomes established.
The women in the harems in their 20s now, most of them will never marry. I was on the market from age 43-46, and, let me tell you, dating women 30-39 is a horror show.
Back in high school, in the Lost World, we had a name for girls with multiple partners. That name was "ruined".
It was true then, and it's true now.
