Fishing over seas. of course it helps if you speak the language. More are learning english, but if you really want to close escrow; its Russian that gets it done.
The Ukraine girls are hot, but I lean toward St Petersburg. | |

There are still cultures in the world in which "marriage at will" is the order of the day. Just because the predominant belief in the United States is that if you're not happy with your husband, you can simply divorce him doesn't mean that there's no hope for happiness.
I suggest looking internationally.

I am 29 and just gave up. I have realized I am not going to get the type of guy I want so id rather be alone then settle.
Yet here you are on a dating site. That's kind of ironic. | |

| At what age do you Just Give Up? Posted: 10/21/2009 12:07:59 PM | | I've never given up on meeting someone just never found the right one.... I think life is what you make it if it's mean't to be happen it will I suppose .. I always wanted kids and a family in my late 20s early 30s but now I am getting nearer 40 the thought seems less and less appealing I like my own company too much and why settle for just anyone because you want a family that's silly .....just get a dog instead .... I've dated a few men this past few years and one in particular was so desparate to settle down with me have kids (he was 41) and kept on at me all the time about how we'd make it work and that I need to get my skates on since my clock was ticking cheek of it ..... well needless to say we didn;t last long after that he was great but the thought of spending the next 10-20 years of my life with someone I didn;t really dig and to be mother to his children no thanks I'd rather be single and alone ....... most of my mates now are single mums got married had kid(s) then got divorced and back on dating scene so it isn't all it's cracked up to be .... however I also have one friend who is having her first baby at 45 so ya never know ......just live enjoy your life and see what happens .... | |

| At what age do you Just Give Up? Posted: 10/21/2009 3:12:40 PM | | Don't give up, just go with the flow of life, stop trying to control everything. Some people have a bad attitude.. I'll never get this, or I'll never get what I want. It's probably pretty unattractive to other people to be negative instead of having a positive unstoppable attitude. | |

| At what age do you Just Give Up? Posted: 10/21/2009 3:37:45 PM | I think you will find that Autism is not the result of an older mother and I have read that it is in fact more to do with the father's lineage- and immunisation triggering it.I am a parent of an Autistic son and 3 other children also. Whilst Autism is a challenge it is no more considered the horrific defect it once used to be. It is no more annoying than some personality traits of non-autistic individuals -who have no excuse but ignorance :)  | |

| At what age do you Just Give Up? Posted: 10/21/2009 7:17:04 PM | I would like to get married and have children. I'd like to adopt. I think it's not so much a role reversal as in it's hard to match up the right people. I would imagine this is a time honored problem, just that before, more people wanted to get married and have kids. I took the work hard/play hard route and wound up with many fun experiences but less financial success and more frustration over time. I broke up with some great men because they wanted kids and I didn't. I don't regret being wilder in my 20s but if that was the only time I could have kids, I'll be disappointed in my later years.
OP - Don't give up, but maybe give up on the computer. And volunteer with kids! I volunteer with pre-teens and it's very rewarding, even if they're not my own. | |

| At what age do you Just Give Up? Posted: 10/23/2009 10:47:50 AM | you never give up on dating and you never give up trying to have a family. I am 43 and I haven't (yet), but I do agree with the second post. The problem nowadays is that if you start a family with anybody but the one for you, trust me, it is going to turn you life into hell. You will be held responsible for your ex, her next boyfriends and the kids for the rest of your life. Be prepared also to spend half of you time either in court or preparing for it... I know people who have not finished yet, an that is after 20 years (and they are broke, and morally destroyed now).
Bottom line, if you have 1% doubt that you found the right one, don't mess up..... and for God sakes, never, ever, not even with the right one think of getting married. Trust me, if you feel fine together, don't throw inn endless legal issues, just live together a happy life, no need of marriage.... throw a party if you feel like it, but without the legal ties. just my 0.02$ !! | |

| At what age do you Just Give Up? Posted: 10/24/2009 11:48:14 AM | Not a lady, but I'm 44, and, while I adore my new little 2-year-old nephew, he has his moodiness and temper-tantrums, and the thought of the pitter-patter of little feet pooping in their dities, crying and screaming, and consuming a good measure of my food and hard-earned cash does NOT sound appealing at this time. Maybe if I get into a more profitable business or hit the Lotto, by age 50, with at least $10 grand ahead in checking, I'll be ready for the craziness of starting my own new family. If I keep myself healthy and fit, I'll be the one to run the kid ragged, not the other way around.
I agree, ladies need to be realistic about starting a family past 40. A dog is cheaper and, if these ladies are stress junkies, just as hyper.
With any luck, in 10 more years, I'll be taking care of my aging parents anyway, who will be like children themselves. Then, after the stress of that, I'll be ready to kick off and depart this mortal coil myself. | |

| At what age do you Just Give Up? Posted: 10/24/2009 6:47:34 PM | This day and age, women are having careers and going after what they want because they know that no man is going to hand it to them. No one wants to bring a child into the world and end up raising the child alone.
Also, starting a family takes careful planning what with all the child support issues and the men literally crying to the judges about how the orders of support are leaving them in the street. | |

I am in my early 30s and I guess I have thought about this for a long time, what do you do when you are pushing 40 do you give up on starting a family? I know a lot of the ladies are having kids later on in life but serious I mean do you want to be in your 60s take care of a teenage child? When does the pickiness End, and you start thinking about really settling down with the Right Person or Do you Just Give Up? Your thoughts on this issue?
The issue is more for women still wishing to have children and a family. A women usually can safely concieve up to the age of around 36 after that various issues arise to be concerned. They have this internal biological clock. So a women at 36 or so would be looking for a guy at a age range who could be benifical to her children. Your right as you get past 40 its streaching it and a women even 36 would be looking for someone not much older than herself because as you say when they are graduation HS, the women would be 54 and the guy would be approaching 58. So thats sort of a cut off age, thats why women have these red flags that go off just an inappropriate age to be around and healthy for the benefit of her children. | |

| At what age do you Just Give Up? Posted: 11/10/2009 10:39:50 AM | | You know I don't actually give up permanently. I take breaks. I go out on dates, then find out they aren't for me so I just take a sabbatical from dating for a little bit. I just kind of gave up on looking including tools like this site. If something will happen for me, then it will. | |

| At what age do you Just Give Up? Posted: 11/10/2009 8:37:38 PM | | If I'm still single (and alive) at age 103 I'll give up... really, I promise, really.. no this time I mean it, really.. | |

| At what age do you Just Give Up? Posted: 11/11/2009 4:35:14 AM | You are wise not to settle. Don't lower your standards. At least find a kind man. I stayed single until I was 45 and then lowered my standards because I was lonely. The a@@ pretty much broke me!! Cheated, spent excessively, manipulated, was alcoholic etc. He put on an act. I wish I got kids when younger, but you don't have to be married to have them. Take care of yourelf!! | |
