In my experience middle age single woman fall into 3 camps:
- Single and happy being single.
- Still waiting for "the secret" to deliver their soul mate / price charming. (Unfortunately their soul mate married someone else about 15 years ago. They have 2 kids and live in the suburbs... they're doing okay.)
- Bitter /insane but willing to go out with in any man that might be interested in getting them out of debt. (i.e. none).
Pelotas sounds like someone who doesn't get out much.
That was a great article, and it makes so much sense. I'm almost 40, never married. I've gone this long, and I am actually happy being single now - I wasn't always comfortable with it. So, I can be choosey and take my time. I can't really miss what I've never had, so there's no rush.
