All the Single Ladies … Should Learn to Settle

Happy Valentine’s Day! Love, Jen Doll:

If there is a real and current plight of the single lady in New York City, it’s not that New York men are so horrible. It’s figuring out how to balance what you want and what you can get — in terms of love, marriage, and what each guy has to offer — against all of the options, including the imminent biological reality of your decreasing fertility. It’s figuring out if you care about your fertility at all, and if you care about it in light of being — or not being — married. Because at some point, it will simply be too late to have kids.”
