Definition of Eventually: At an unspecified future time


Does this guy even know he is going to marry you?

I don't look for sex partners on dating sites because I am attractive irl. I am attractive enough to shag, and I am attractive enough to marry. Sorry you can't say the same, no wonder you are frustrated.

Please watch the personal attacks. Discuss the issue, not the posters.

You have missed the boat, time to lower your standards and accept any man who is willing to marry you. Your sole requirement should be that he has a pulse. You are shopping for new shoes at the Salvation Army, honey. There will be no Louboutins to be found, that ship has sailed.
A lot of women on here should take this advice.

I rarely hear men panic about not being able to find somebody to marry by 40, I only hear that from women.

I had to start dating at 42, there were tons of guys on the dating sites. Tons I would want to date? No.

But really, how many does one need? I found one great casual relationship, one 9 month relationship, and then married. And I'm obnoxiously picky.....

Are there less available men when your in your 40s? Sure. But there are less available women too.

It wasn't that bad out there. I sure as heck wouldn't tell women some of what I've read here.

I was speaking more of the 'standards' some men seem to have, especially on dating sites.

I agree with that, I actually said that in another thread about how a lot men end up settling, and the women started getting pissed.
