If he doesn't marry me no one will (dating, marriage, men)

[Djuna]

Omg, such desperation is so pathetic. I agree with liberty, you're really pushing the trolling boundaries with such stupidity.

[*Sixy*]

I don't really understand your quandry.

So if he doesn't marry you, you think you are doomed to never be married. Is that really all that horrible?

[Dewdroplet76]

What about post after post of yours where you claim that you are perfectly happy spending your life single because you are completely unwilling to compromise on your myriad deal breakers?

Go easy on her, folks. She's never been married before (unlike many of us) and has no kids. And she's not one of those women who is against marriage. She wants what she wants. I can see how as time goes on and you're not getting what you want, one might feel more and more hopeless.

IDDY, all you can do is keep an open-mind and be happy with what life has in store for you now.

The reason that most of us will not go easy on her is because she doesn't go easy on anyone else. She's hateful towards groups of people and ridicules them.

X2 That is also how I see it.

IDDY, I really admire your honesty. However, I really think you need a reality check. You always believe men reject you due to your age, I highly doubt this is the case.

I've done a search on match.com

This is a typical 47 year old man's profile looks like

***********

Active within 24 hours

47 year old man
XXXX, California, United States

Seeking: women 36-47 Within:100 Miles of XXXXX, California, United States

********** Obviously, this man is not even going to consider ME because I am simply too young for him. He is looking for women your age. Don't get discouraged! ********

Decent men who have reasonable expectations are out there. But seriously, women your age have to open to at least divorced men. Don't you think?

I am in my late 20s right now, I've found a lot of divorced men to be very desirable. I am raised Christian, but I will definitely date people outside my religious belief. I am not that religious anyway.

I don't think you should "lower" your standard. Nobody should settle for losers, cheaters, men who are allergic to work, but seriously, girlfriend, you cannot choose your future date based on their past or religious belief.

This taco man does not sound like a great catch. I haven't read all your post, but if he is 50 and is still living with his mother, he's not a great catch at all. (I thought he owns his own taco bell or something. =)

You can either be alone or be miserable.

Your move, OP.

I think I confused you with someone else. Still, you are around my age and you will be fine. Don't ever think this is your last chance. So untrue at any age, really. Men get older too you know.

You can't even get Taco Man to take you out on a date, let alone marry you. Why do you think there is a chance for the two of you? It's downright delusional.
