Men want purity. You marry a women that’s slept with 3-4-5-6 men good luck.
Just my opinion.

It's the female term for being "friendzoned"

more like "I'm going to keep fuccking this guy because I need the occasional pipe cleaning, but I'm keeping my options open"

men that are single in their 30/40's are either not mature enough to have gotten it together for marriage by then, or they're divorced and not ready to repeat that, so they're mostly just looking to get laid without commitment, but in general know that women aren't really down for that, so they "date without labels because we're too evolved for those" and
Women in their 30's are generally looking for commitment and don't want to be alone, so they are actively looking and fall for that no labels line because we've conditioned women to think that demanding matched effort makes them look desperate, and women that age still think they can change a man if they treat him well.

This is so, so wrong. Divorcees in their 30-40s are most certainly DTF, they're typically past the point of giving a shite about being labeled by anyone.

I'm pretty sure internet user georgia is a female, but regarding your response I think it is true more often than not based on my experience. Although it varies drastically depending on their personality.

Gone are the days of PawPaw/MawMaw love, high school sweethearts, and 50+ year marriages.
Its a shame that its slowly faded away, there needs to be a revival or reset, but hookup culture and the degradation of society has doomed the majority of the younger generations for finding love rooting on the foundation of God (it still happens however though, all is not completely lost)

I think some women have been conditioned to push away men who put forth effort as "desperate", and instead find themselves attracted to men who string them along.
We can argue about the reasoning for that, but it's odd behavior for sure. It's counterintuitive to their goal of a stable and supportive long-term mate.

The typical progression of relationships these days is:
One night stand, talking stage/dating casual (non-exclusive), dating (exclusive), engaged/living together, married/living together with kids.
A situationship emerges when a couple gets sorta stuck in the talking/casual dating stage. Usually, one wants a serious relationship while the other is unwilling to commit. Rather than have self-respect and find someone else who does want a commitment, the one who wants the commitment hangs around and accepts that the person they’re dating is seeing other people in the hopes they will eventually be convinced to commit to them, which rarely happens. While you would assume this phenomenon is primarily women allowing themselves to be essentially “harem”ed by a “high value man”, this really isn’t limited by gender.
So, if you have two people who only want to date each other, you have a committed relationship. If you have two people who both want to date each other AND other people, you have a casual relationship/“friends with benefits”. If one person wants commitment, but the other doesn’t, and they don’t break up over it, you get a situationship.

their mindset is almost universal: marry and farm the uterus for a couple of kids keeping the vagina on the market, find the next sucker, fleece the first for all his worth, rinse and repeat while documenting all the drama on Tik Tok.
Holy cow! That is a cynical view. I’m sure there are women like that, but I assure you there are plenty who are honorable and would never behave that way.

It was way easier to have a 50+ year marriage when it was impossible for her to leave

How does that even happen in your 30's? I get if you're just looking to screw around, but if you're seeking a serious relationship and still find yourself with someone who won't commit months in, seems like an issue with you.
My daughter is 33 living in NYC and single. I could write a book about the stupid relationship hangups this age group goes through. I am sorry to say that she is a very good looking and smart young lady that will never find a spouse because there is no guy that will put up with the "rules" these women have. When we talk I just listen because there is nothing I can do make her see the oxymoron of what she wants and what she does.
Meanwhile, I keep my fingers crossed!
