Considering that I’ve been married and divorced twice and re-married again before I turned 31, someone can have the first two marriages.

I am single, white, and a little over the age cut-off. (Did I say white? I mean something a little closer to glow-in-the dark, with sunburnt edges for contrast.)
I am, however, excluded from this statistic by virtue of being Canadian. Therefore, I will claim that I am a member of Kallessa’s glorious 19% (Of which there are a few more in the Great White North, even with Ginger of the North’s defection!).
I have a bumper sticker which sums it all up: Beautiful, Intelligent, Talented, Charming, and H****. Now I just have to stick it on my car…
Well, seeing as I’m Chinese and therefore don’t fit into the statistics, I guess I’m just an anomaly.

Have you tallied how many lady Dopers have gotten married or engaged in the past year? I posted a list on JavaMaven’s and JustPlainBryan’s engagement thread. It wasn’t short. And it didn’t even include couples like moi and that darn cat who already knew each other before joining the boards.
I’d say they’ve gotten plenty busy.
Well, that’s good. The more people that get married, the fewer single people will be here. The fewer single people, the lesser the competition.
BAH!
Maybe some of us just haven’t met the right guy. (No - REALLY!! I’m just going to go fling myself in to traffic now…
I think we should have t-shirts made up–I’m Part of the Proud 19%.
And when people ask us to explain it, we can meet single men. Or married people who know single men. Or parents of single men. Children that know single men. Gay men that know single straight men. We will meet single men, I mean, they are out there, aren’t they?
Oh, and JohnBckWLD, about this:
You got it partially correct–Independent, (though not necessarily financially–marrying for financial security is a bad idea), and well-adjusted, but I hardly see what marriage has to do with the desire to have children or a life time committment. Women can have children outside of marriage, and I’m committed to my family and my friends for life and beyond. I’d like a life companion and lover as well, and I like the idea of marriage, so sooner or later I’m walking down an aisle, and I don’t think I’m in the minority here.
Yeah, now if they would just get busy in my direction! ::sigh::
See, all you really had to do was buy new batteries! The “appliances” themselves are good for years…
jayjay
I have got 5 years to remain in the minority then. Fantastic
I agree withKallessa - I wanna T-shirt
Oh and where are all the men then?
ems - who is tired of being single & is going to find some nice traffic to play with…
I want to be a statistic.
So, Being a single Male I would be willing to quit running so one of you fine ladied can catch up :)
Lsura You and I have been on the boards together a long time with never a cross word. So, we already have a comfort zone established. We are in the same region of the US, plus, I know you well from you posts, It would be nice to have someone around who has such interesting things to say.
** cjhoworth** Well, I have been running into your posts on regularity, seems we are attracted tot he same topics, might our general intrests be alike? I would hazard to guess Yes.
Sure here is much hotter than there in the summer, but we have a nice sized SCA light fighter group. Merredias does not have eppe, but Schlager is easy enough and I have more than I can use as it is. Think of the fun we can have road tripping to events
Ok, enough already, you other ladies I do not know well at all, but I am willing to learn if you make an effort and e-mail me.
I shall stop now before I start to mention bribes and such things.
Oh Osip, you insufferable kissass.
OK, I’m gonna have to challenge Osip to a duel over cjhoworth’s fair hand…shall we say pistols at dawn? Swords at noon? Cream pies at 3:28?
swords will be fine
rapier alright? I promise to make it reasonably painless.
