hyegirl Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 Is it just my experience or do you also find that Armenian guys past their late 20's seem confused about wanting to get married and settled down. It does not appear to be a priority for them. I'd like to hear your opinions.....thanx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sip Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 I'm only getting to my late 20's and my views on marriage haven't really changed much. I think marriage is important if you're going to have kids. Since I don't particularly care for that kind of a complication in my life, marriage has been waaaaaaay down on the list of things to worry or even think about.

Maral Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 Don't you think that most men are not too interested in getting married? Most men don't want to till they are maybe in their late 30's...or sooner if they find someone they really really love and she forces them to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does not appear to be a priority for them. I'd like to hear your opinions.....thanx style_images/master/snapback.png Actually I will have to disagree with you. It has been my experience of coming across Armenian men especially in their mid 20's to mid 30's who are seriously ready to settle down. You know this by them telling you that they will teach you how to cook and asking you those commitment related questions. They scare me. This by the way isn't so with American men, who are less likely to rush into marriage or a serious relationship. I guess it sort of goes for both genders. A lot of these same guys tell me about "nice" or "susik pusik" girls who are ready to handcuff them, usually that results in "run for your life." So just a tip to Armenian girls, don't be so "nice" and try not to please them too much, apparently it's a bit of a turn off after a while. Generally I think it's chasing what is hard to tame which excites us. So if a man is hard to capture women are more intrigued, same goes for women.

Emil Posted November 17, 2004 Report Share Posted November 17, 2004 I am 27 and I have no thoughts of getting married. I think marriage is an institution of evil. Seriously, I haven't seen one healthy marriage around me. When I do find a serious g/f, I'll let her know my thoughts. What's the big deal about getting married? Spending thousands of dollars on a wedding? A piece of paper? I would like to have kids in the future, if the girl I'm with wants to be married before she does, I"ll print her a marriage certificate off the internet.

Eve, I think that's because we are a small nation and men are usually instictively more nationalistic than women. Family is the basis of a nation (especially a small one). So if a man is hard to capture women are more intrigued, same goes for women. style_images/master/snapback.png Acting hard to capture is narcissic and gay in case of men.

ExtraHye Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 (edited) To be honest with you, some men shouldn't even get married. I went to an Armenian grocery store today, something that I rarely do. This old lady asked if I could take her home do to the fact she missed her bus. Any way, I gave her a ride home. As soon as we got there, this lady was standing in the middle of the street crying her eyes out. Well, it turns out the old lady knew the sad woman. So they started talking about how her husband drank AGAIN and started beating her up again. I felt so bad for her. I've never experienced anything like this in my whole life. Does he think his a macho man to beat up on his wife like that? Why can't he pick on someone his own size. Why is she taking all that physical abuse from him, why won't she just leave his ass?

It starts with such a joyful note, at least for those who do not have the privilege to casually meet an old Armenian lady in an Armenian grocery store. It ends with a horrible note! Does he think his a macho man to beat up on his wife like that? Why can't he pick on someone his own size. Why is she taking all that physical abuse from him, why won't she just leave his ass? style_images/master/snapback.png I don't think you mean it, but one may think that you're saying: It would have been justified and/or understandable if she was his own size?

They belong on Jerry Springer's show, sobbing and defending their husbands with the most moronic excuse "But I love him! Despite his brutal, narcissitic, deepshit nature, I know that somewhere deep underneath (yeah so underneath that our modern science won't be able to detect it even with X-rays) he's a really nice guy!" Give me a freaking break! Yeah, stand in the middle of the street and hope that some car will knock you over and knock some sense into your dtum head.

Anileve Posted November 18, 2004 Report Share Posted November 18, 2004 I"ll print her a marriage certificate off the internet. style_images/master/snapback.png I think that was in one of the episodes of Alias. It's a great invention, you can pretty much get married anywhere even on your honeymoon where you don't have to deal with the preparations mess. Emil, I don't agree with the whole institution of evil thing, perhaps it is a socially construct institution which was really intended for an entrapment, but Armat has a point. For some reason people feel more obliged to work on their relationship if that contract is involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gamavor Posted November 19, 2004 Report Share Posted November 19, 2004 Acting hard to capture is narcissic and gay in case of men. This is very true Armen!!!
