I feel like women aren't interested in relationships and are just as happy as single
Hello!
I don't want to postulate anything here. I just wanna share my feelings about this one topic I thought about often in the last weeks.
I feel like, women aren't really interested in relationships or dating in general. In my head (probably not in the reality), women would love to avoid men completely. Most women would prefer having friends, career, family and living a great live as a single. I feel like women only want men for financial reason or validation. In my perception, a woman with a well-paid job, friends, hobbies and an overall good life who doesn't want own children has absolutely zero reason for being in a relationship.
Also, I think that women have no problem with being single for 5+ years while men are "missing" something when they are single for a longer time period.
Do you think that women are less interested in relationships with men than the other way around? If yes, what do you think is the reason for that? Do you think that women aren't that interested in men because they don't "need" intimacy and deep connection as much as men do for biological reasons? Or maybe women have closer friendships on average that pretty much eliminate the desire for forming a romantic connection.
I hope I can get some opinions and experiences here. Hopefully I can throw out this garbage out of my head but I can't get rid of this view yet.
