Rachel's Scribbles

I've always said that I think men marry when they are ready and not for the woman. They can meet a ton of great women but if they aren't ready to tie the knot, they won't. When they are ready, they marry the woman that they happen to be serious with at that point. I've had many men tell me this. They've also said no bells and whistles went off. They were ready and they married the Ms. Right Now that they were seriously dating at that point.

PS I know many men that verbally stated that they didn't have intentions on marrying their present love. They ended up marrying that person later.

I don't believe there is any real "formula." Matters of the heart can take strange turns and loops.
 

I actually found the article on LTR's to be very accurate. As someone who has captured the heart of one of those elusive bachelors who no one ever thought would marry, I've found myself less curious about the answer to "why me?" and more about "why not them?" Although he has dated dozens of talented, intelligent, successful, beautiful women, according to him: 1) as a man, he was not prepared to marry anyone in his 20s and early 30s; 2) he grew tired of monotonous relationships or being with women who expected marriage after a few months of dating; and 3) he experienced too many women who were not happy with themselves and looked to him for their personal fulfillment.
