I had no probs with getting a gf in my 20s and even early 30s. And all of them wanted to settle down with me (i.e. get married). I had one ex-gf who was 25yo at that time and all she wanted was to get married with me. She was a single child and come from single-parent family so she wanted a family of her own at a young age. She is those chio ah lian that many guys fought over her, but she just inexplicably likes me a lot and will do anything for me. But back then I was still young 26yo and felt that my world was just beginning so I wasn't keen to settle down so soon
Now I am in my 40s and wish to settle down, but for the past 8 years I seemed to be in a curse. No matter how hard I try, I can't even get a single date. Even those 5/10 average looking plain janes also seemed to hiam me. And I am richer now, emotionally more stable, look younger than my age.... but no matter what I do, I cannot find a single date.
It's like a curse... when I am not ready to settle down, I meet the right person (more than 1 in fact). When I wish to settle down, everything goes wrong
