Heh, guess what there are Pakistani guys here who on one thread advertise very private information about themselves on public forums (Such as them being 'virgins' at 30 as if anyone gives a damn about it, anyway), on another, they laugh at another human sufferring from a cancerous disease & then on another they express their dislike for the birth of new infants. How can such anti social guys be happy with marriage? Actually, it is a blessing on females that such guys choose to remain single as anti socials never make a good marriage partner.
I think being single and in your 30s is becoming a norm now...it might not be ideal for some but is definitely common.
My best friend is a well known bridal make up artist and she says most of her brides are late 20s to early 30s.
As a result, the men are a bit older too. I havent seen too many large age gaps these days. There are a few......in one scenario...the guy just seems to be going through a mid-life crisis ALL the time. His wife is so much younger so he tries to look younger by dressing younger...sometimes it works and sometimes he just looks like a bit off.
Here in Pakistan I have noticed quite a few guys who are of right age and older , making enough money , but still single . Knowing them from their past , it doesn't look like they sleep around either . Also from nice families .
This makes me wonder if they have chosen staying single with their own free will . If so , it means it is an acceptable norm in our Pakistani society , in which there is always a huge pressure on women to get married .
Do you also come across such examples ? where a guy is lets say above 40 but still single , and everyone is cool with it .
lolz .. what a question.
This is not a norm here. People who are single have their own reasons. Few are single 'caz they kept waiting for "Perfect" girl adn they missed the better one. Few are singles because they were too busy in studies/business and now they are desperate. Whatever the reason, it is not the norm but they just don't show it.
My reason of saying this is that i am 27 and i know how much pressure i have from my family. After my B.Sc, i gave n excuse that leme do some job first, let me stable myself .. .. after 2-3 years I gave excuse that leme finish my masters. Now, I am here and ever day i talk to mum, she says only one thing .. you gota get married, ghar ao aur shadi karo. Even now i have excuses! .. .. I duno where i fall in the above mentioned categories. Would i end up at 40 or not .. but the basic thing is - IT IS NOT THE NORM THERE!
The only thing that my family love to discuss now, is my marriage :# ..
