Age That Is: by intan(f): 3:36pm On Jun 28, 2009 |
Men in late 30s or early 40s are kind of typical when it comes to settling down (marriage), even though their partner seems to have all the criteria they needed. Why is that?? |

for better for worse isn't a child play |
Re: Age That Is: by ElRazur: 3:44pm On Jun 28, 2009 |
Typical in what way? |
Re: Age That Is: by intan(f): 3:55pm On Jun 28, 2009 |
, more on traditional and old fashioned values, stuff like that |
Re: Age That Is: by ElRazur: 4:18pm On Jun 28, 2009 |
intan: Erm okay. You will need to be less vague am afraid. What traditional ways are you talking about? Is kneeling down for your husband for example is something you see as old fashioned and possibly outdated? If you want people to engage, you would need to be clearer in your explanation. |

If u are in that age groups, u know what i'm talking about |
Re: Age That Is: by ElRazur: 4:36pm On Jun 28, 2009 |
intan: Actually no I ain't. I am just trying to help you to get your point out. It is easy to make generalization and what not. However, it would be nice to actually see where you are coming from. Most of us [well, me anyway] do not have super powers to read your mind so as to know what you are talking about. For the record, If I have a wife, I do not expect her to kneel down for me etc. As far as am concerned, we are equal in a relationship. |

U see, men in their 20s are not so much into details; its like all about love , we all know love alone can't put food on the table. In their 30s/40s it seems like "if u can't cook, don't even think about it", that is one example |
Re: Age That Is: by ElRazur: 5:01pm On Jun 28, 2009 |
intan: Why do you keep making generalization? May be you should say "in your experience". Relationship in 20something year old is not a proper relationship, it is more or less like a student going out to get "work experience". It is not the same as working full time. Going by your example, most 20something live at home with their parents or are living alone, and as such a lady who cant cook is probably not their priority. They say the older one grows the more the way one thinks get better. A 30/40 year old man, is a matured person and as such, wont be willing to date someone who is probably immature [I am assuming that is what you may have been trying to say]. Anyway, to deal with the issue at hand. A man who have gone out all day to work wont take kindly to a bad meal made by the wife. While in some relationship, the 30/40something may be able to afford to hire the services of a cook, however, let us be realistic here. |

Generalization is good It will broaden our perspective and mindset on certain issue based on our personal or general experiences. It might seems hard to engage ourselves to this topic, but the point is to transform this topic into some sort of contribution in decision making so as not to prejudge one's action when they seems to slow down or shifting gear as i called it, its like owning/driving a car u know, have we ever tried to understand our car when it crankin' on the road? |
Re: Age That Is: by ElRazur: 5:27pm On Jun 28, 2009 |
intan: Say what? How can generalisation be good. Please educate me. That is like me saying all "Females are idiot" not only is that a stupid comment to make, but then it is not true as not a females are idiots. As for the rest of your post. . . erm what are you taking about? If you are already making generalization, then you are already "pre judging". . . Car and cranking under the hood?? Erm. Okay. |
Re: Age That Is: by intan(f): 5:33pm On Jun 28, 2009 |
It depends on our logistic and issues we deal with. Some thinks generalization is a good thing, some don't. It changes our mood for sure. Take it easy, |
Re: Age That Is: by ElRazur: 5:54pm On Jun 28, 2009 |
Please educate me as to how generalisation is good. |
Re: Age That Is: by Tudor6(f): 8:12pm On Jun 28, 2009 |
I really don't understand the topic |
Re: Age That Is: by ElRazur: 11:41pm On Jun 28, 2009 |
Tudór: It is safe to conclude that she was smoking something strong when she posted this. |
Re: Age That Is: by iice(f): 3:08am On Jun 29, 2009 |

Re: Age That Is: by puskin: 3:34am On Jun 29, 2009 |
