I might have even posted this thread in the past and this point, it may even be a recurring thought.
The saying goes that men really peak in their 30s compared to women who peak earlier. Looking around in my circle and most guys I know, it seems like for most guys I know who are at their peak in their 20s or earlier or peaking in their 20s, they are usually in a relationship or on their way to being married. Now that I really think about it, most of the guys I know who are single past the age of 30 are single because they have to be, not because they want to be.
Now the main thought I have is that after a certain age, say past your late twenties, being single ends up being a setback for social life. Most people are in a marriage or an LTR on its way to marriage and people love to be around others they have a lot in common with. I could see guys who get older settling down to not feel like an outcast because it can be so tough to find others around your age who are single unless they have to be single (ugly, mentally deranged, etc.).
But I think about a situation where say you do have a guy who is single, in great shape, financially set and nothing off about his personality. What is life having in store for that guy?
For an extreme example and high ceiling, we have Dan Bilzerian and it has been discussed that he is a very rare breed. I am talking more along the lines of a guy who makes above average income, is good looking and a cool enough dude.
How does he navigate through the social landscape where most his age are married or what do guys like that typically do?
