Why is it that the dating pool shrinks significantly after 30 and it’s much harder to find a husband?
White Hare asked:
After 30 if you are a woman without children looking especially for a man without children who’s never been married, the dating pool seems to dwindle more and more with each passing year,
After 30 if you are a woman without children looking especially for a man without children who’s never been married, the dating pool seems to dwindle more and more with each passing year,
and is it fair that amongst the established men your own age, they would prefer dating women in their 20’s?
Or is that just nature, they are going for the more fertile “wife material”?

I’d imagine it’s simply because a lot of people have already found their life partner by the time they reach 30. Not everyone of course, but a lot of people.

By age 40, most people have been married at least once and have kids. There are men who don’t have kids by that age but have never married either. These men are rare to find. Those that have had a couple of marriages tend to be marriage-shy possibly because they had messy divorces. And yes, some will date younger women.

The median age for men’s first marriage is about 27. So that means by 30 over half of men have already married. Then take away what ever percent of men a *** and therefore unlikely to marry at all and figure in the fact that men tend to marry younger women, it starts to make sense. The pool, indeed, dwindles with each passing year. It therefore means that men in their thirties can be more selective – and yes, they are more attracted to women in their prime “child-bearing” years, even if child bearing is not on their minds.

It’s the fact that most people get into serious relationships during their student years, Somewhere between their 20s and 30s a great majority of these relationships turn into marriages. For men things are somewhat easier because even if they are divorced after 30, their children are with the mother + they can always look for a younger woman. But a single divorced mom with children is not the number one choice for any man!

The older you get, the more discerning and set in your ways you become.
For some older people, finding a suitable partner requires a set of criteria to be fulfilled.
This narrows down opportunities for both sexes, as it involves a certain amount of generalisations tied to the criteria, without focusing on individual personality traits.
When people pair off younger, Its more about physical attraction and common goals.

Women in their 30s tend to be blinded with husband/sperm donor hunting. A lot of men backpedal when they come across those sorts of women, the desperate kind who are all competing with their female friends to settle down, have kids, etc.

our bodies, our choice……remember that one……does that only ply to women or are men allowed to make choices as well….?
The ‘nice’ guys cannot find a date for one or two decades and all of a sudden, he is the meal du jour……
For twenty years, he has been dissed, no one called him back, no one wanted to be with him on a Friday night, he couldnt get laid if he had money in his hand ready to buy a hundred women drinks and now he is cricicizd again cuz he has more choice than who?
The women who had it all in her youth and who is finding her power dwindling with her looks. She used her body to get drinks and get cash and jewels and and and all of a sudden, her beauty tricks dont work anymore

I think some of the posters have a point. Before 30 women are in big demand and in control.. After that there is a swing in the balance of power to men.

Because sadly men find women less attractive as they age while men get sexier…

Most men that age are either married or they want younger women. One thing these men should know is that their pickings are slim, too, because not all young women like men who are obviously older than they are. Women who are attracted to such men are generally gold diggers or looking for father figures.

There are two reasons: First, many people tend to get married in their 20-30’s so the overall effect is that there are less people, both men AND women, in the dating pool. Second, you are probably being negative about it, i.e. you are being programmed by dumb-ass shows like S.I.T.C. to have self-defeating beliefs about the available dating pool. I live in SLC, a city well-known for its ridiculously low average age of marriage. Yet, even here, myself and many of my male friends remain single into their thirties. I doubt that places like NYC, LA, and ATL would actually be worse than here.
