what do you think about women in late 30's & 40's says never married

some people honestly like to take there time to find that right person. or there is a chance some of them could be lying. you would have to talk with them to find out which side they are on

Well I have a good friend here at work 37, never married. I dont see anything wrong with someone not being married and hitting middle age. Of course there are might be something with committment issues so you do have to ask.

I am 40 and not been married but that does not mean that a person was not in a committed relationship.  The views on marriage are changing and it not a requirement anymore to live with somebody in a committed relationship.  I was in one for 18 years.  It was just not that important to us and we had reasons the first 10 years or so to remain legally not married.  But I am a little hesitant when I see somebody in late 30s early 40s that says never due to commitment type reasons but since I know I am the same I give the benefit of the doubt.   Some have also commited a lot of time and effort to school and jobs and may not have taken the time of effort yet to meet the right person until they were more stable.  Katrina

We all have our reasons for this or that, but I would guess that perhaps the lady either had unrealistic expectations or decided to make the right choice rather than to settle for something less than acceptable.

I still have friends who are in their late 30's and still not married. They dated a few guys but didn't work out. I used to date someone in his mid 40's and said that he doesn't want to get married. A few years later, he said he'd like to get married someday if he found the right person. If I meet a guy in his 40's and still single. I am sure there are reasons why he is still single. Sometime, it's his choice or hasn't met the right person or he doesn't have the look or doesn't have a career or some wrong with his personality or he has few a bad habit(s) or having a hard time finding a lady...who know...

I am 39 was in a relationship for 8 years and when we first met he told me that he would never get married again. I have never been married it isn't because I have commitment issues or a fear of intimacy. I just chose the wrong guy.

Well, I can tell about myself. I have studied my whole life, and finally my steady job came a few years ago. It was a matter of priorities, and now, more mature, I think I can live with a person under the same roof. It does seem simple, but actually it is not; and also, the right guy did not show. Well, let me rephrase that, the person with whom I could possibly love hasn´t shown up yet. I just keep the faith.

I'm 43 and never been married. For me I would rather find the right guy, even if it take's awhile, rather than marry the wrong guy. I know a lot of women have been married and they have kid's by my age not to mention divorced and single parents. It's just a matter of what someone want's from life.

Its their choice, not wanting a commitment, or looking for a knight in shining armour, I would like to meet one.

I would have some concern, but that doesn't imply there is something wrong, just kinda different.
