KEK. This is marriage of love. This marriage of agreement. If i were women i would avoid. As a men also cannot support your thinking

Love is a feeling. Eventually it will fade. Nowadays people marry for lust/stability anyway.

In the book "The Science of Happily Ever After: What Really Matters in the Quest for Enduring Love", the love feeling diminishes within 7 years of marriage. Divorce/separation rate is 60% and possibly 7% do not divorce/separate but remain in their unhappy marriages.

If you don't have a contingency plan, things can get ugly.

Edit: Also to add. If you say that it should be a marriage of love, a prenup should not deter a woman from marrying you unless she's there for your money.

when your income increases, naturally your social circle will have more quality people. There's really no need for a guy to rush for settling down.

find a hot girl is easier, but find a girl who's not bad looking and being empathetic/helping you reach your goal(s) is very hard, welcome to modern era that amplified hypergamy.

If you really wanted to settle down, you don't need to be the best looking/wealthiest person on the planet. Just ensure the following:-

-look/fitness
-money/status
-game/influence

to be at around 70% OVERALL(3 AREAS), competitively advantageous.
you don't need to be almost 100% in just ''one'' area, in fact if you only best at something, most people will find you weirdo.

Bit hard to believe but some of these people are actually chosen by higher power

The life is about your choice what you want and don't want to be.
The grandpa wants to be forever alone so this what he got. May be he had different story. Choices made the consequences and outcome of today.

Because they are comfortable with their current life

Some people who remained single are just traumatized, and that they're aware of it, and they want to work on themselves. Due to all sorts of hardship out there, they don't want any further dramas... Almost to the point of avoiding social life... Not to say that they're anti-social, they just want peace and quietness...

Some people are not loyal to one person, and they know that, and because of this, they chose to remain solo fooling around...

Some people who remained single are those that couldn't get over their girlfriend / wife, etc... Whatever has happened in the past, they could not get over it yet...

There are some who are just lost... And not wanting additional responsibilities, they chose to remain by their own to find themselves...

There are also some who are also way too logical----men, chiefly speaking----and women would find it hard to relate it and would remain incompatible...

There are also some who are looking for certain characteristics / matching with another, and would choose to remain by themselves if it weren't the case...

Then there are some who would forsake relationships and a family unit at the price of achieving their dream... Nothing else matters... and nothing would get in their way... Focus is the only point of concern and mind that they have... Nerd at his/her best, and would leave no stone unturned... These are the kind of people who are real with themselves, and would see through it all ---- successful or not ----- to achieve their dream... Anything less could be considered a form of suicide...

Edit: Then again, some people who are plainly just characteristically problematic - whether having emotional outburst or unfit (being obese, morbidly underweight, or plain ugly), others would leave them and that they find themselves being single.

Edit: Some people also have too high an expectation, that they chose to be single so they can marry off someone with a circle of influence and/or wealth. Many of these people and scenarios of all kinds do exist - whether you like it or not...

Edit Reason: Typo + adding information.
