Why Is Getting Married Referred To As "Settling Down"? by lordmayor2013(m): 1:14pm On Dec 03, 2015
People say it every time! I wanna settle down. She has finally settled down, When will your sister settle down? ...bla bla bla. ARE SINGLES ROAMING ABOUT?
I mean both literarily and metaphorically? There are married men out there who are serial cheats and married women who can't do with just one man, can we say such people settled down just because they have a ring in their fingers?
what do you call a single guy practicing abstinence?
Who coined that phrase settle down?
