Question

Do women past the age of 35, who are single and never been married, tend to become super picky?

Answer 1

No, we just know what we want.

Answer 2

Yes. My sister has been picky her whole life, she is 46 and single. She plans to stay that way too.

Answer 3

kind of yes.. it is not being exactly picky .. it is more about they know what they want..and they know who they are...and not always you can find what you want...they don't plan weddings they plan relationships and marriage.. and that is more important..

Answer 4

Not unless they want to die single.

Answer 5

It's very difficult to generalize as it's a very interesting question.  Upon reaching the age of 35 years, a woman is considered "of advanced maternal age," thus increasing the likelihood of an untoward gestation; each year thereafter, the risk increases by about 10% (missed Ab, foetal/fetal anomalies, gest. diabetes, preeclampsia, premature birth, etc.)

If the woman is not keen on bearing children, then it becomes a far more complex matter.  Some women are inclined to look for men of great social stature, whilst others are interested in men with exceptional attractiveness, whereas others may be interested in a certain age group or other specific factor, hence it's too difficult to generalize in such cases.

Answer 6

I don't think so. I think most of them are in no rush to get married or have no real desire for marriage but could change their minds when the right person comes along. There's nothing wrong with that. It's better than being married and divorced several times by the time they reach that age.

Answer 7

No, some women would rather find that "right" person other then play the field with random people they know aren't right for them.

I'm sure some women are picky and that's why there single but there's other reasons as well to there actions.

Answer 8

No, I have actually noticed the opposite.  It seems like many tend to settle for men they wouldn't have given the time of day to in their earlier years.

Answer 9

My husbands sister just recently got engaged after the age of 36 and is a single mother.  She's getting married to a guy she dated seven years ago, so no, they're not picky.

Answer 10

Yes and they also become more rigid and self-focused.  There's nothing like a man and a child or two to keep you on your toes.

Answer 11

Not always, just as any other human behavior or preference, it depends on the individual.

I have noticed some women become more picky, some become less picky, and there are some who always maintain certain standards.

Answer 12

Yes.

Once a woman lives alone long enough, gets used to having her home ordered her way, cleaned her way, organized her way, and she has this for more than about 4 years, she is no longer able to make the switch to having some guy around, with his underwear, dirty dishes, loud music, scratching, etc.

This is the four year rule.

Woman can avoid this by having a room mate.

But once she lives alone for 4 years, that's it.

Answer 13

Yes, they are picky, but it is only to cover up the fact that they know they will spend the remainder of their lives alone.

They also know that they will enter the old age home - lonely, sickly, poor --- surround by thousands of other lonely, sickly, and poor women.

Answer 14

I find most women who men find attractive are very picky.  Perhaps if men stopped idolizing them, they would change their tune/  But that is their choice to make in life.

Answer 15

Yes, and for me the wait was worth it.  

Men tend to value themselves too highly.  "No husband" is better than "any husband."  

And to the lamebrain 1C Woman, women who learn to take care of themselves financially, rather than expecting their husbands to do it and finding out too late they didn't, do not wind up lonely, sickly and poor.

Answer 16

depends on the women.

Some become ultra picky and end up with 5+ cats or 2 dog's,

Some become the opposite of ultra picky and lower there standards and probably go through another divorce or two.

Most live there lives's and meet someone they like.

Answer 17

not picky, angry and depressed. which of course keeps men away so they say they are picky to avoid facing the reality of being unwanted.
