I'm a 36 year old male and many of the women I know range in age of mid 20s to mid 30s, and older. Almost all are single and have no man or boyfriend in their life. To hear them talk, they sound a lot like the women in this article - "I'm not sad!" "I'm living the life."

Don't beleive a word of it. Most are clearly down on their situation. Most have extended negative outlooks on life and love and frankly, I don't blame them. Their problem stems from being burned a few times and extrapolating the lessons from those situations onto every other situation they find themselves in. Th result, they are 'down on love,' and find fault with any man they meet, and end up sabotaging their relationships.

Also, the women I know are too demanding - not to say that they shouldn't have strong standards but they manage to disqualify every man they meet. They can't possibly meet that many clowns, so something is wrong with their filtering process.

Same goes for men that I know, so this isn't a sexist analysis.

Some insight into this is that I date women usually younger than me, age 23-27 or so (I just turned 36 a month ago). When the women in my life meet a women I am dating, they react VERY negatively to her. They really resent that 1. I chose a young woman, 2. a young woman chose me, and 3. we both are happy. The cattiness comes out in super-form, and these are women who either I have never asked out, or asked out and was shot down years ago. Go figure, huh?

To be fair, I bait them a bit. I can't resist though - these are women who, while friendly to me, have gleefully pushed my buttons in the past for a cheap thrill or laugh, or otherwise alienated me in some way. So when they do meet my honey, I am proud of her and I always ham it up ("Yea, Ana is VERY athletic, you know back in college a few years ago she was very into gymnastics...she is in amazing shape still!" and stuff like that!) Fair is fair - these women would do the same to me, and it was very self centered of them to think that the tables wouldn't be turned on them, someday.

To be fair, the men close to my age in my life tend to not like the women in my life either. It isn't jealousy, exactly, I think, that motivates these folks. I just think it's that they have an image of what life is supposed to be like, and when confronted with a challenge to that paradigm, they react negatively.

The only men I know who have no problem with it are older men I golf with (older being relative - age 40-60 or so). Since I always used to get along with folks older than me, it works out nicely.

As for you, you are a young woman and I hope you find a nice conservative, republican gentleman (I don't date democrat women anymore - only conservatives and apolitical ladies). The men are out there - most men I know are single and looking and are down about their situation, to be sure, though if you ask them they 'love' being single. It's a sham, too.

If ANY Freeper lady wants my exclusive 'how to get a good man' advice in a nutshell, email me. No joke: I have hooked up 3 women in my life with very suitable gentlemen in the last 2 years, and it was a very easy strategy that they marveled at when I told it to them. Maybe I should do an audiotape product on it and sell it for $100s in the self help market? But if you want it, I'll tell you for free!

Yeah I know all that 'I'm living the stuff' is crap. I watch some shows about single women and it's no wonder why they're single. A lot of people are so superficial, which is why I could never go to mixers and speed dating events. I'm sure I'll meet someone nice guy in the near future though. There's someone for everyone.
