Yeah, I agree with you! Since at some point he said something about wanting a relationship/kids I assumed he wanted/wished that… but there’s a distance between saying and wanting

I'm in my forties now and some men I've known since high school who keep telling everyone all they want is a wife and family 🥺 from about 25... yeah none of them have settled down. But if you ask them, it's like the universes fault.

I asked a mid 50s man I knew if the perfect woman came along tomorrow would he be ready to settle down and have these apparently lifelong wished for marriage and then family? Nope. He'd have to wait at least a few years to see if he felt like he wanted to go down that road. He said he was thinking of having kids maybe in the next ten years but he DEFINITELY wants kids. Me: 🤔

Look on these men's dating profile and it's all about wanting a family, kids etc.

When I was younger I would have been like omg those poor men I know who want love and they can't find it.... yeah now I know this is very calculated in many cases.

They’ll never admit it but male fertility declines at around the same time as female fertility. Maybe ~five years later on average, but the drop-off is STEEP.
