| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 9/9/2007 12:48:50 PM | | I just turned forty last year. I had been married for eight years. I would be looking to get married again. The lessons learned from the first marriage will hopefully be enlightening in choosing the next relationship. I certainly have a better grasp of what to look for. I've never been one for the bar scene or chain dating. I would like to find someone special to settle down with and make a future together. | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 9/9/2007 7:36:28 PM | | After a divorce I would like to be married again, but I also would like to the time to make sure that it will work. My basic thought is that I would know that I was married before I even proposed. And that does take time. Simple as that. | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 9/9/2007 9:36:10 PM | | I want longterm love. If after a sane amount of time a wonderful woman insisted we acknowledge the isntitution to declare devotion to the purpose I'd of course do it with great alacrity. | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 9/12/2007 3:01:45 PM | | I would love to find a long term relationship. I have pretty much quit dating altogether. Just stay here at my country home, just the dogs and me. Too much misrepresentation online. I am tired of going through the trouble of meeting someone and then seeing reality. So, I have learned to love my shop, welding machine, and steel, that just has to do for now. Sometimes I feel I am going to waste, but then again, time will tell. | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 9/12/2007 5:45:41 PM | | Of course some of us want to get married again. Some are lying, Just like the girls that say they will love you forever. The fact is that sex is a part of a long term relationship. Personally, if Ive been seeing a girl for a while I want to have sex with her. Its called nature. I guess you dont have to have sex, but Im a fan. Its not bad or wrong. | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 10/6/2007 7:15:28 PM | I don;t know if this is any comfort...I myself feel as though I missed my childhood... I was a "bad" kid...into my late 20's. I partied, was very reckless for a long tme, not considering the feelings of others to any great degree. Now I often feel like an old man looking back. My values have drastically changed. I would marry in a heat beat if the "one" came along. Sex...I've honestly never had to go without for any great length, but life is so much more than that...I look forward to sex with someone I'm in love with...that would be magic I think! | |

MEN .... I'm just curious! Are any of you on here SERIOUSLY looking for a long term relationship with hopes of it leading to marriage?
Me!
I know exactly what I want in a woman though and will not settle. So I'm just at a point in my life where if I find that woman for life great! but if I don't then I'll make the best of being single for life. | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 10/10/2007 3:34:36 PM | I couldn't agree with Sparticus more!! You can't understand or explore the answer to a question like that without understanding a bit about what's behind it. When I seperated over 6 years ago I swore then I would NEVER marry again. With time and healing and wisdom, I've come to a point in my life that while I fight my libido everyday, I still want that kind of passion for woman who's hand I'll still hold when I'm 90 - like my grandparents did.
Here's the ironic part. 5 years ago I very openly and honestly stated that I didn't want anything longterm, that I wanted casual relationships...and I got them in spades!! I got laid all the time! lol...
I find myself single again after a 4 year relationship and I realize that I have no desire to go whoring around....so I've put up what is the most honest, truthful profile I have ever put up....I pass through profile after profile of women claiming they want an honest man...and watch those same woman who 5 years ago I could have got naked with little effort pass by my profile or not return an email I've sent them...
So, the question that begs to be asked is....do women over 35 really want to get married, or are they just kidding themselves? ;)
Good luck to us all! :) | |

So, the question that begs to be asked is....do women over 35 really want to get married, or are they just kidding themselves? ;) I do want to get married again one day...thing is I don't want to marry just to get married. I'm happy with who I am and more than willing to be single until somebody I don't want to live without comes along. | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 10/10/2007 6:30:16 PM | Getting married to get married is sooooo lame. I know someone who has been married 7 times just because she wouldn't have sex without getting married. If you don't work on yourself, then you'll never make any one else happy. Plus, shame on people who let the hypocrisy that sometimes masks as religion dictate life terms. michael in layton | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 10/12/2007 5:21:12 AM | If I met someone that just rocked my world. maybe. But truthfully I would rather just live together if we clicked like that. If we wanted to have children together I would probably be very open to getting married, but most of the women I have dated the past few years have either had all they want or don't want any at all. I'm neutral on the subject.
I've been married before. I would rather just have a serious relationship without going through the hassle of getting a document to 'validate' it. Forget that... | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 10/12/2007 6:12:32 AM | | that is how life is someone tell you one thing but really mean something else, so becareful.but now a day that is what perople are wanting is sex and no attchment to each other and i mean both sexes. | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 10/13/2007 10:50:19 AM | | There may be some who are just looking for a "fling" but, I for one am looking for commitment and long-term. It's the absolute best feeling in the world to provide for my partner, and without that feeling, I feel kind-of "purpose-less" | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 10/25/2007 6:50:15 AM | I am looking for a long term relationship. As for the married again part, I am not too sure about. I can't say that I will and I can't say that I won't. I have not any children, so I am going to have to say that the next woman to come into my life. Is going to have to want at least one or one more. Or maybe not, maybe the woman that I meet and end up with is past that. Who knows.
Lets face it! I am just looking for an egg doner and a host!!  | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 10/25/2007 5:54:14 PM | | You know that exact thing is happening right now with me. It's crazy! The guy is 40, I'm 31. Who cares about the age jump. Big deal. But the issue is this...he can't let go of the dating sites. And yea, I mean sites. I've learned of another he's in. Bleh. But I'm with you, totaly. Why can't they just be honest and say, "Look. I just want someone I can screw, and you won't be the only one. I like to keep my options open..." I mean...gah! | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 10/25/2007 6:16:09 PM | Reasons why I am not getting married again:
1) I have a significant financial obligation to the previous family that walked out on me. No woman's going to stand for half "her man"'s paycheque going to someone else.
2) Second marriages have a NINETY SEVEN PERCENT CHANCE OF FAILURE. Went through that wringer once, not interested in a second time. I don't like dem odds. I can' afford to give a second chick 50% of what's left of 50% of my income so she can run off with two other men and take the kids.
3) Most of the women my age who are looking to get married are looking for a man to take over their lives. As for me, I'm taking advantage of the only advantage of being abandoned, and that's being free. Nobody is taking that away from me. NOBODY. | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 10/25/2007 6:54:38 PM | Yes I thinnk some are "looking to get married" and some are "looking to get laid". Why would we be any different than women when it comes to that subject. I am divorced and there are many things that I miss about marriage and some things not so much.lol All in all marriage is a fine institution and not one that should be entered into lightly. Most women fail their first test and start acting all crazy when a guy misses a call, So then we think hmm a lifetime of this??? No thanks and move on...Play it cool baby you'll catch you one and if he's too small you can throw him back.lol | |

| Any men over 35 seriously looking to get married? Posted: 10/28/2007 12:43:16 AM | they are, but some men (and women) like to be sexually active while persuing that person they are really looking for comes along. It's just a fact of reality. the important thing is honest communication... Then everyone gets what they want. | |
