I've also wondered this many times; why some women seem to have their pick of men and others do not.
I know I was single for over 3 years a few years back and every single guy I met was commitment-phobic and only wanted to keep things very casual. But then other friends always had a man wanting more.
The only characteristic I could find in these women was confidence and valuing themselves over the men which I think made them more desirable. Other than that, I have no idea.

I dunno....I was proposed to at least five times and I was quite reserved and introverted at the time. Most of the men only knew me on an acquaintance basis--like while I waitressed at my dad's restaurant and the rest in my mid thirties, at least two in my 40s during my nursing years. I think they thought my job--waiting on them--was a personality trait.
Sometimes it has more to do with the type of men some women choose. Some women are notorious for yearning for guys who are bad for them, bad to them, or downright unavailable in some way.
Other times women are concentrating on something besides finding a husband.
Maybe it makes some women feel good about being proposed many times, maybe something to brag about, who knows. I would think that for a man to propose it would take a long time and thinking to do it. If the couple has gone that far to have a guy kneeling down to beg a woman for marriage and save thousands of dollars for her ring, what made her kick him to the curve? It would make more sense for men to get rejected if they proposed a few weeks later after they started dating.

I don't think it's anything to brag about. It's also not something to put someone down for either. It just is what it is. And not all relationships are matches made in heaven. Sometimes you realize that it isn't going to work after a few dates. Sometimes you realize it after you are engaged. And sometimes you realize it after you get married. And as for a man begging a woman to marry him - methinks you don't understand what a marriage proposal is like. As for a woman kicking a man to the curb - sometimes that's what a man deserves. Sometimes it's not. All relationships are different. You can't always blame women for everything - life is not that simple.
