Ever hear that line before?

Looking back on my life, I realized women would say that line as a way of telling me that my life would be a failure if I didn't do what they said to stay in a relationship.

I've always believed that was projection on their part. A man doesn't feel lonely as he ages of he's unattached. That's a woman's burden.

Do any of you who are single feel old and lonely?

Has a woman ever used similar comments on you?
