Do you think women in their 30s who are single are too picky or too unlucky to find a man? Do you think they are single b/c they want to be? Would you consider them an old maid? Things have changed since 20 years ago, women are staying single longer and opting to have a career rather than a family. I'd like to know your feelings on this matter.

Now a days Men are into single woment in their late 30's even early 40's. At times I think Men are intimidated by that. Some women don't depend on a man and men don't like that. Some men prefer their women to be ignorant and needy...
I have problems withe everybody (when I was single) asking me why aren't you married yet? What are you waiting for...?
I laugh! Then say...I do like I need to get married? LOL
Society has issues with Marriege and women being single over 35! Oh and not having kids by age 30 it's like you have problems!
When in reality...it's society that has the problem. Not you! =)
I'm 27 not married, in a great relationship, independant, business woman, own a home, and don't need to get married. =) Maybe one day I will and if not that is cool too!
You don't worry about that!!! My sister is 37 and still single and hot! Handle you're thing girl!!!
You are great! Don't let society change you!!

Well, no problem for me. I been liking this girl for the last 6 year. She is turning 30 and up soon, but I still love her for being herself. It is not her fault that she can't find the man of her dream. Sometime it just happen. "oh, as for me, I never dated her, even thought I do love, her entire family know, but I never make the first move, so she can never dump me, hehee"
No, i would never consider them to be old maid, because age is just part of life, I don't mind them getting older as long as i can be there to celebrate the good time and the bad time. Beside, with all the change in the world today, teen are the one that is an ***.
I believe each person has to have their own career, those who stay they will choose family over career people are those who can't get a career...most of them. Only those that are really good can have both.
Don't worry about your age. It is what make you special.

I don't think it's a race to find a guy and be married by 30. I got married at 37. I am not an old maid nor any ones maid. 20 yrs ago woman did not have as much education or higher paying jobs. Thank God times have changed. Yrs ago people stayed unhappily married for fear of where to go and how to live with out the mans pay check. Woman now can be with a man out of choice not need.

It depends on the woman. I know several single women in their 30's who are career driven. I don't look down upon them for their choices. That being said, I do know other single 30 year old women who are way to picky. One thinks that a couple should never fight. I mean NEVER disagree on anything. I have a feeling she'll be single forever.

I don't really see how a single 30 y/o is all that different from a single 25 y/o. When/if a woman gets married is her choice.
Now, we would never even ask this question about a man in his 30's. He's just playing the field...

Whether it is a women or a man in their 30s, being single is a choice. Most single ladies I know in their 30s are happy and enjoy being single. Some people need someone in their life, and if you are one of those people then it does not matter what age you are, you will not be happy until you have someone.

It's a sign of the times. In the olden days, the majority of women married and bore children young due to lack of advantages society had to offer. Today women are taking things by force by not letting that be the American dream. There are a lot of men today that don't care about a woman's worth, so they decide to be single and do bad by themselves. Why not. This world can be very stereotypical. I think if you do you and don't care about people's bias, life is much easier.

some of them want 2 b single, and some of them just haven't found the right person...others, like me, were married, but it didn't work out...i don't think there's such an urgency nowadays 2 b married...many couples find it just as easy and satisfyin 2 b in a committed relationship without the piece of paper...and some folks would rather pursue a fulfilling career or take whatever steps r necessary 2 assure financial security...it's all about what works 4 u...stick 2 ur guns, whatever ur beliefs and what makes u happy, and don't let any1 dictate what u "should" do...

I am single in my 30's and it is for many reasons....the main one being I haven't found an honest man who treats me with love and respect. So now, yes I am picky because before I trusted too soon without fully getting to know them.
Also, I don't NEED to find a man, my life is good without one. But I would like to find the love of my life someday, just like most people.

i think women are not as concerened about marrage as they use to. years ago women didn,t have the chance to have a career outside the home. now people are more educated and the roll of women has changed . they have more oppertunity to persue their goals. they are more self sufficent and don,t necessarly need to look for a mate at an early age. they still have time to start a family when they reach their thirties,and still have a career. i applaud them.
