Is it true that a man can decide if he wants to marry someone at first glance?

[Anonymous]

Also, is it a generational thing?

Yes

No

[SoIcyGang]

Sure I saw a girl like that today at work. She came from a other department to help us for a few days.

she's cute, pretty, sexy, sweet personality. I can tell she's smart too and she works obviously and she's a good worker especially since she's the one they are sending around to other areas.

And when she talks to me the way she looks at me, it all just fits nice.

After I met her the first time I'm like "damn I better avoid this bitch, I'll fuck around and marry her ass."

Sometimes you just get those wife vibes.

[OlderAndWiser]

No. Many men can decide whether they want to have sex with a girl at first glance, but how could you decide to marry someone before you know them? Marriage. . . lifetime commitment. . . the future mother or father of your children. . . for better or for worse. . . decide all of that without knowing anything about them?

I said no as men do not fall in love at first glance. They do however see if you are what they are looking for, if you are a girlfriend material or wifey material. Like if you are a girlfriend material they will not marry you even after being together for 2 years, if you are a wifey material they will marry you.

[Jamie05rhs]

"Girlfriend material" does not disqualify someone from being "wife material.". In fact, it's actually a pre-qualifier!

I call baloney. Anyone who says that it getting divorced a few years later. You can't know anyone with just a glance in my opinion.

[AviatorTom]

It's possible, and it has happened, but it usually takes at least a few dates before the thought of marriage enters the guy's head.

[Pinay_ako]

First glance? 🤣

No. Marriage is a lifetime commitment and I won’t take my chances on a glance

[Guy13]

No. That’s she’s hot. I could tag that. You’re all over the place confused.

[Static_In_The_Attic]

As for marriage I‘m already decided, that shit isn’t for me & if I’m stupid enough actually do it hopefully I’m smart enough to have a prenup in place & a good divorce lawyer on retainer. Marriage is like a hurricane there is a lot of blowing in the beginning & when it’s all said & done your house is gone.

[Miristheiss]

No, not without knowing some things about her first.

Now a guy can probably tell I'd love to have a wife who looks like this girl. He can know that she checks off all of the physical attractiveness criteria right away... one glance but he still doesn't know if their personalities, values and goals line up. They could be at complete odds with the other. He has to know her to know if she'd be a good wife other than just being really attractive to him physically.

[molonski2]

He may think he can , and this at times may happen , but its not a YES/NO answer , my answer is C : Maybe , it does happen , but very rarely and the planets need to align.

[VikingWarLord]

That's only for young, duumb and naive dudes. They get tricked by the "beauty" too quickly and easily. Once you've seen enough "model" type females without makeup on, you realize they're really not as hot as they portray themselves in that first meeting impression. So those butterflies never sneak up on you after you get experience.

[Jdjfjcjj]

I'd say he may internally consider whether he can imagine seeing her in that role. But actually deciding? Logically that would say that he was willing to put up with things he should have called out. It'd make me thing he desparate

[Jdjfjcjj]

I know you hear the Comment in momments of romance but to me is actually reads in the manner I said above

[OfMiceandMen]

I sure has hell wouldn't, there are a lot of crazies out there, so I would need to know her well and for quite sometime before even thinking of marriage.

[MrCommodore]

Not at first glance, but within a few dates he might decide she is in the running, like that she is marriage material. But obviously that is too early to be certain.

[RavVid]

we can know at first glance that we want to have sex. we might think within minutes they would be a good girlfriend/wife. Actually deciding to do so takes a lot longer.

[serious]

I choose yes because it cannot happen just by looking at a woman in first glance but yes say after one or 2 dates or meetings a man can decide.

[Lionman95]

I think it´s possible but rarely the case. It´s like love at first sight. Sure it can happen but it´s not a general rule.

[ObscuredBeyond]

Can, yes. Should? Not these days! That'd be nuts!

[JDAC092299]

I don't know about others but not me I personally find that idea very ignorant to the many factors of a marriage

[Adam1978]

No only a fool would do that. You need more time to see some red flags then that.

[genericname85]

of course they can't. you can only decide that after you know a person. if a guy actually does decide that at first glance, he's a fool.

[SweetTwistedSatanist]

I have had that happen before. It seems that type of man is missing a few screws or some of the cogs in that head aren't turning properly to be skipping so many steps at once.

[nawtee_me]

Where do people get these ideas? Love at first sight isn’t real. Love takes time. Infatuation and lust can be at first sight but love takes time

[exitseven]

The first time I met my future wife I just knew we would end up together,
