Why do guys date girls for years if they have no intention of marrying them? (Page 2)

Question

Is it because they're just settling with that girl until a better one comes along, or do they actually love them? I feel like I wouldn't want to be caught dead in a relationship that lasted more than 3-5 years. I'd assume he didn't take me all that seriously if I stayed that long.

It is pretty nasty. Especially when they drop the woman for a younger model. Karma comes calling.

Maybe they just don’t want to get married ever to anyone, many people live with each other for years and not having to get married and are just as devoted but some people are just waiting for someone better to come along too

Part of it is what women will do in those situations that scares them I think, and it also is just because they are not thinking clearly or they're actually evil. Straight up.

Because we lose a lot in case of divorce. Why risk it for almost no benefit?

Anonymous · Answer

I assume it'd be because he loves her but is afraid of commitment. Though I wouldn't say he's settling until something better comes along in most cases.
