It is a fact that once a woman crosses the 40-year threshold, she might as well completely take her mind off marriage. Even with the emancipation of women, what with them being more independent of men both financially and psychologically, figures still speak volumes about their odds at marriage. Women over 40 have to stop trying to be divas, or to act as such. Divas, as a rule, are not always loved, and perhaps this could explain why men don’t virtually queue up for a date with them. The trouble with being single for over a year is that you start to get “Trying Hard” paranoia.
Attitude like these (you think, I am perfectly happy with my life and, what’s more, I am extremely keen that no one should mistake me for a sad single person on the pull. On no account do I want anyone at a party / in the restaurant / on the street / the taxi driver / a passing satellite to think I am trying to get a man) is not just unhealthy, it will give men the impression that you want to be left alone. If you are determined that no one should mistake you for a woman who might be looking for a man, then don’t be surprised if no one comes looking for you.
