Single women are simply unmarried women, and single women over 30 are often called "leftover women." Some traditional older generations can't understand what these single women are thinking, believing that if they don't get married by a certain age, they'll face problems later. Is this really the case? Actually, single women aren't necessarily as bad as the older generation portrays them; some are quite carefree and happy! There are several reasons why single women remain single:
1. Better to have none than something of poor quality.
Women who manage to settle down in big cities are mostly outstanding, embodying the typical image of a strong, independent woman. Yet, ironically, it's these very women who become "leftover women" (unmarried women over 30). These single women are worldly-wise and expect their partners to be equally outstanding or at least a good match for them. In their searching, they miss out on precious time and romantic opportunities. Being too outstanding and too picky becomes an obstacle to marriage.
2. Narcissism and arrogance
There's a type of single woman who considers herself incredibly beautiful, a top-tier beauty. She's cynical and sarcastic towards the men around her, finds no novelty in long-term relationships, and doesn't take the men in her life seriously. Over time, the men stop appreciating this "spoiled" lady, and she becomes a single woman, left behind.
3. Frequent injuries
Having several relationships before marriage is perfectly acceptable; it helps women gain experience and find someone to spend their life with. However, some women are unlucky, frequently encountering "bad guys" and getting into fruitless relationships, ultimately remaining single. This can only be blamed on poor judgment, always falling for unreliable men.
4. Divorced families
These single women, having witnessed their parents' divorce from a young age, harbor a fear and resentment towards marriage, becoming victims of unhappy families. As they grow up, they inevitably recall these past experiences, often becoming timid, vulnerable, and helpless; some even develop paranoid personality traits and become prone to overthinking. How could any man approach such an unconventional single woman?
5. The circle is too small.
Some people spend their days going back and forth between home and work, knowing only a handful of people, and their narrow social circles make it difficult to meet their soulmate. They are constantly busy with work, nothing but work. As the years go by, she gradually becomes a single woman.
6. Passive waiting
These types of single women frequently go on blind dates. Even if they think the current man is acceptable, they still hope the next one will be better. So, they meet many men relentlessly, only to find that the quality is decreasing, and they're not as good as before. In their passive waiting, they gradually become left-behind single women.
7. Enjoy freedom
Freedom is something some women cherish most. Eating alone, exercising alone, watching movies alone—life can be quite wonderful on its own, without the need for a boyfriend or husband to control them. These single women live carefree and happy lives without men, embracing the modern, diverse, and traditionally conflicting concept of singlehood, no longer trapped in the ancient system of marriage.
In my opinion, there's nothing wrong with single women choosing to be single. As long as they follow their hearts and feel happy and content with their current life, that's enough. If they feel something is missing, then they should take the initiative and break the deadlock.
