Why do so many women seem so desperate to get married?

Question

Yahoo Answers is full of all these questions from women asking how to get their boyfriends to marry them. Why is marriage so important to these women if their boyfriends aren't interested? Shouldn't people just be happy to be in love and marry if or when they feel like it?

Answer 1

I think alot of that answer can be found if we look into the upbringing of that woman,

I know of several men wanting to be married for the comfort level of knowing they have someone in their lives, Funny though, after years of knowing these men, They are still single,

Same as with the women, Very Picky. They won't settle for just anyone, But yet are so very sad that they aren't married!

Answer 2

Yeah I agree with you.. marriage is a huge commitment and if the other person is not interested than I don't no why ppl should get married then. I think woman just do that to maybe feel secure or something? I don't no lol. I got married because I was happy and in love. I wasn't in a hurry for it at all. I just let it happen.

Answer 3

Yes!

Answer 4

Maybe they are afraid of growing old alone and marriage is a committment to a life partner.

Answer 5

my girlfriends and I are not desperate to get married because we understand that a man does not complete you as a person.  besides, it's hard enough trying to find a good man out here to date!  

Answer 6

Probably fear. Fear of being alone and not having the much coveted "white pickett fence" American dream. There is the biological clock issue too. We're programmed to look for a mate especially during our prime childbearing years, our early to mid twenties.  

Answer 7

Some people are in love with the idea of being in love, having a pretty ring and planning the perfect wedding.  They're so enamored with the whole process that they're willing to forget about the meaning behind it all and do whatever they must to attain the aforementioned goal.

Answer 8

a lot of it is fear of being alone. its crazy sumtimes but... to each his own!

Answer 9

SOME WOMEN ARE INSECURE AND ACTS AS IF THEY "NEED" A MAN. I FEEL AS IF MARRIAGE IS SO OVERRATED.

Answer 10

I have no idea why some women are so desperate to get married... I dont wanna have to ASK and guy to ASK me to marry him..how embarrassing... so yes ppl should only marry if and when they feel like it... but I think some women think they're supposed to be married by a certain age, and there are a LOT of pressues to conform to society's standards and for some reason when women get to be a certain age ppl start asking them when they're getting married.. which by the way is REALLY REALLY ANNOYING!  

Answer 11

rebel cause my biological clock is ticking

Answer 12

I love this question and to answer it, I truly believe it's the wedding. So many girls (Oh yes, I just went there) are wanting the wedding not realizing that there's a marriage that follows. They have no clue what it takes to be married. Women today either have it together and take care of themselves or they are in "La La Land" about some "dude" taking care of them. Desperate is a great word for "women" looking to get married.  It just SCREAMS, I can't take care of myself!!!!  

Answer 13

Women have lost there d**n minds some women are marrying for medical benefits and green cards or  because a friend is tying the not and they are jealous, They are not even thinking of there relationship or the significant other to be honest marriage is not something that should be a must if you love someone and things are going great i think you should leave it as it is because sometimes marriage complicates things. If it is meant to be marriage will come but until then leave love alone and don't pressure the man into marriage because 9 times out of 10 it doesn't work.
