Sad to say, but this is a perfect example of what I meant in another thread that as people get older, it seems like the financial issue is going to keep certain people from getting married. It’s a good concern since no once wants to be played with a gold digger, but having seen various older men (40+) who has never been married, you sorta see the same pattern that the “fear” of losing out financially is almost preventing them from meeting someone.
That said, maybe it’s just no one you see/know is “worth” taking the leap/risk to even see/date (not like you need to get married right away or at all), but once you’re over a certain age (35+ I’d guess), the pool of people starts to shrink so for people who are serious to meet someone to share experiences/life with, you need to do some soul searching and see what you really want out of life.
The population of available non-married men and women are much lower I’d guess at 40+ and a lot of people may have “baggage” from a previous marriage. People who have divorced once are also about 75% or a really high number to get divorced again so the stats are pretty lousy.
Try the online thing, but my guess nowadays is that marriage just isn’t as needed anymore (people live together already vs. 50 years ago) and more people will just stay single vs. before and I believe it’s the largest/or fastest growing demographic group.
