I have very high standards. I was raised by my father who was a single parent with 4 kids at the age of 28. He worked 2 jobs and went to school. He was a good man. He raises the bar for the type of man I want.

Posted by LadyNeptuneWell it wouldn't be fair for me to comment on the dynamic since I'm not American and dating plays..differently here. Women don't feel they have to be ashamed to want marriage and a family and the whole process is ..organic. Honestly, there's a lot of fronting women engage in to prove...idk what exactly. Women who really don't want love and marriage? They're in the minority imo but you couldn't tell that by the replies in topics on dxp.Posted by DamnataWhat is it about current dating trends that makes it less likely for women to choose marriage, iyo.

I'd say it has reached a point where it's not even a choice anymore but a self-fulfilling prophecy because the "wants" are completely out of hand.
To me it's not that women are less likely to choose marriage, it's that men won't marry them so instead of taking a good luck at themselves, we get "Oh it's a choice I made" to soothe themselves. I call BS on the majority of them claiming it's a "choice" they made.
When I'll see men get as ridiculous as this:
