Do men want a long term relationship/marriage?

[poshspice123]

[lightbulb27]

Most guys are know are married or were. Majority stay married. Quite a few single guys I know are dating.

It depends how they are raised... environment they are in. You wouldn't swim in a swimming pool that is filled with algea slime would you? Don't try to find husband in a cesspool...

Depends on his age. The older, the more likely.


Unlike women, the older, the less likely. By then they have had it with PMS. Putting up with Mens Shit.

there are men who fool around before marriage and then they settle down after marriage

there are men who fool around after they marriage but they don't before marriage

there are men who don't fool around at all

there are men who can't stop fool around before and after

[PBandJ_Nerd]

I think there's lots of men that do want a marriage or long-term relationship.

[AI Opinion]

Absolutely, many men are on the lookout for that special someone to commit to in a long-term relationship or marriage. It's like searching for that missing puzzle piece that fits just right. Love, security, companionship – you name it, a lot of guys are dreaming about it. Think of it as their own personal quest for their "happily ever after." 🏰💖 Sure, just like anyone, men might have their list of fears and desires, and understanding those is key. It’s not about Prince Charming riding in on his white horse; it’s about genuine connection, shared dreams, and that spark that makes every day together an adventure. So, strap in, because many men are definitely ready for that ride into the sunset! 🌅💑

[Finfin1981]

Aww good luck and hope you have a wonderful day xx

[OlderAndWiser]

@Finfin1981 Thank you!

[myloveforuisinfinte]

At age 69? Lmao naah u can. Good luck

[OlderAndWiser]

@myloveforuisinfinte. You are never too old to want love, never too old to find love.

[Finfin1981]

Absolutely agree 🩷

[Peter_Penetrator]

Good. She can keep you from being forced into an old folks home. But from what l have heard, old folk homes are nothing more than a “house of ill repute”.

[myloveforuisinfinte]

💀💀@Peter_Penetrator that's rude

[OlderAndWiser]

@Peter_Penetrator I am nowhere near ready for an old folks' home. I still work full-time and lead an active life.

Yes. But only with a woman worthy of it. This is probably the single biggest misunderstood fact about men that women make. Women think she is the ONLY one taking a risk when it comes to dating. a lot of women erroneously think a man doesn't want anything longterm or serious (assuming she chose a good man. Which a lot of women don't even get that right). When the reality is he does. But only a woman he cab truly build with.

And just like women feel they're under NO obligation to tell a man if she's attracted to him or why. A man is under NO obligation to explain if he views her as a woman worth building with or not (though if she's observant the clues are very apparent).

Welcome to the wonderful world of dating. Enjoy your stay.😆

Those of us who already are certainly do. those of us who haven't gotten married are either too young to find someone willing to take them with their issues or don't want to.

Which is why if your courting a guy in his 30's already you need to ask what kept him on the market.

[Nikki1989]

Men of quality who have their life together do. The other basket cases will just have to stick with being bitter and miserable forever.

Marriage. I want my children to be raised by married parents in a traditional household. Not a "modern long term relationship" where either parent (or partner if there's no kids yet) could just leave with no repercussion and no real commitment. It's a bad example to set for your kids on his relationships should be

[Anonymous]

Definitely fewer now than in the past. I mean I think most guys want the marriage that their parents or grandparents had, but that seem more and more to be a thing of the past. Half of marriages end in divorce, women file 80% of divorces and men get screwed in divorce court. That's not very appealing to an increasing number of men, myself included. Tbh most guys don't trust women with marriage anymore.

[BCRanger10]

Yes. There are many of us who do. I am married.

[DoggyDude]

Absolutely. Are they sure with precisely which girl? Usually not.

[poshspice123]

Oooh interesting… how do they narrow down on the girl?

[DoggyDude]

Well, first there is the attraction level, but that doesn't lock it down more than "someone they would like to date" (sometimes there's "love at first sight", where the guy will go relatively insane for the right welcoming smile, that's good for a guarenteed interest; If a guy can imagine the girl / smile and their children thats a very strong probability of deep interests following). Secondly, there's the personality match up, which is very individualistic. Some prefering a quieter girl, some prefering one whos more sociable. Then there's always the X factor, which each guy knows for themselves, something that really clicks with them, I'd say for me it being a bodily match for me (I guess that goes under chemical / sexual attraction, it's little things that guys realise over time makes the difference between maybe and definitely).

[DoggyDude]

That said, I don't think any guy knows for certain going in, usually. That said, after a guy has chosen to spend a significant amount of time with a particular girl, sharing with them at the interpersonal level (e. g. getting to truly know how each other ticks) they will usually either be completely sure or infinitely uncertain about how they see them regarding marriage); if the girl has a past though which under-mines something the guys looking for, they might be uncertainly-certain [meaning they might know the girl is perfect but be in perpetual doubt knowing some pre-condition they always dreamed of would need to be dropped if choosing that girl, and this would make them doubt even their certainty and wonder if another girl had that factor AND the personality / connection]).

Now, all of the above to some degree I can relate to personally, but the below is what I've observed with people I've met though my various jobs over the years:

Still, other guys yet, just do their best to sleep their way around all the girls that will have them and rulet style into the relationship that lasts (and usually the girl whos most willing to put up with their continious infidelity); Usually because they can get away with it. Though usually by the time they settle down it's more of a "their done with sex" thing for those guys (I observe).

[poshspice123]

I appreciate you explaining!! Thank you

[TonyMetal___86]

Do not know about other men, i can tell you that i always wanted it but are there girls who really wants it or just think that they want it, so later on they snap and discover that they have never wanted it!

[DarkWinterNights]

Myself and most of my friends ultimately do, but we’ve had pretty bad luck even finding women we’re compatible with.

[EmmaMary]

@poshspice123

Thankfully my husband does.

[Sameone]

You can say 50% 50%

For me yes i go only to long/srx relationship

Short/ part relationship for me is shit and wasting time

[Alex-Snow]

I do eventually but not at this time in my life. I'm 18 and just want to have fun and some great sex with many girls before I get to that point

[SunnyRS]

At some point I did, can't say for sure, not looking for any kind of relationship right now, at least not until I think I found someone who changes my mind.

[Anonymous]

no. why deal with all of that when they can get by on just having sex with you, dragging you along, never committing, all for free?

[Vermillion30]

I would love to find someone to fall in love with and get married. I can’t mentally digest casual dating and encounters.

[JonesT10Apr]

yes definitely..

a man cannot survive without a woman... a pair they created...

specially in old age they will feel very much, unless his wife not around him

[MrDaveAPSI]

Some do, some don't

Since marriage, by definition, isn't necessary, you don't have a lot of people wanting it

[PrettyCrumblBb]

Some men and women do and some men and women don't.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Yes. It's been that way from literally the beginning of life.

[Yannae]

It's one of my missions.

[desidoll]

My husband does.

[LazerBean]

Many men do, and many men do not.

[FunkyMonkee]

I'd like that.

[SolitarySolace]

Not unless he wants to be miserable

[jahaims]

Different people have different preferences

[Luckycharms12]

With right person yes

[Iron_Man]

Yes they do

[BarryLiverstone]

Yes.

[JacobJordan]

About 53% do

[sheikalana]

Some do.

[dudeinohio]

[shortster]

[war_daddy]

[Anonymous]
