Mr. Savage Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 I can't really explain this, it's rather weird but I will try. I am 29 and for my entire adult life I have always had somewhat of an alternative view on dating and life in general. I always kind of liked not being the married guy with kids who is tied down. But in the last week, heck even less than that, the last few days I have just begun having this urge to find a real woman to settle down with and marry and have a family. The weird thing is it just came on like THAT! Am I just growing up or this just a phase perhaps? Also it seems like having this kind of attitude seems to calm me down and even make me more attractive to women. Is this because most women are apprehensive of men cause they think they only want sex? Just sharing my thoughts for the day, thanks for litstening.
OhHey Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 Same deal here, it is normal while younger(although you're still young) to say "Nah, lol marriage, kids? hahhaha no way!" I was like that all the time, but it changed quickly...suddenly having a serious GF and settle down in love became an interest of mine. It strikes quick and hard and while I try to resist it, it is difficult. I guess as we get older we feel we are running out of time to find a partner and being lonely becomes worse as we age and having "someone" would feel nicer in life. This is a guess though. but you're def not alone with this...I think everyone goes through this in one way or another.

FitChick Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 I never wanted to be married because of my parents' horrible marriage and bitter divorce. One day, in my forties, a light bulb went off over my head: "I am not my parents!" Then I started seriously looking for love and my whole attitude toward marriage changed for the better. Never wanted kids and still don't.

Just sharing my thoughts for the day, thanks for litstening. as for the bolded part, women in your age range are paranoid about not having a white dress and baby when their sisters and female friends do, don't think too much about that. the same insecurity still drives most of them, and you still have to find one that isn't that way. the game hasn't changed, just the symptoms of the sickness of the players.
exquisitus Posted April 10, 2012 Posted April 10, 2012 Had same epiphany in January. Out of nowhere, hard.
