Girl, You’re How Old?! Why She’s 30 (or Older) and Still Not Married

3. She’s Picky

Okay, so maybe “picky” isn’t the right word…but she’s not willing to settle. After all, she’s spent her life getting an education, building a career and buying a home, so she knows what she brings to the table and she’s not taking any shorts for a man who she perceives as “having less” than she does. If he doesn’t have a certain degree, own his own home, drive a certain car or have a certain career, then he can keep on steppin’ as far as she’s concerned. Sure, she might be shallow, could be missing out on great guys and blocking her blessing, but that’s for her to figure out. And there’s nothing wrong with having standards either. However you look at it, women who feel they don’t have to settle don’t give in to the pressures of society to be married by a certain age, or settle down with a guy because their friends and family told her it was “time.” While women who want to be married should make sure their list of traits in a future husband are reasonable, she shouldn’t have to choose “Mr. Good Enough” either.
