Do you know any straight men who never married?

Yes, ones who had girlfriends. But never married.

In my hometown, the majority of straight men usually didn’t marry until over 40–and that was usually to someone half their age. It’s a college town where females outnumber males. This was true while I was growing up and whenI went back for my 30 year hs reunion it was still true. A bunch of 48 year old men just starting families with their young wives.

I don’t know any unmarried straight men and of the few married straight men I know, the wives appear to be running the show in all but one case. In that one case the two parties seem to be happily joined at the hip. Either there’s a lot more male passivity out there than we hear about or my sample is skewed.

How old are the supposed to be when they "never" married? 35? 40? 45? Older?

Yes, exactly one

New York radio host, Mark Simone who's in his 60's never married. Claims he never met a woman that interested him enough to tie the knot.

High school friend

Terminal sad sack

Yes, I have known never married men who are straight, perennial bachelors who played the field to others for whom sex didn't seem a big part of their lives (but how would I know if they don't mention it, and why would they they mention it?)

What about guys who got married, got divorced after a couple of years and never remarried?

Yes. I know plenty of straight men who never married.

R9, that wasn't the question, moron.

Plenty.

They don't call us "confirmed bachelors" for nothing 😏

Nope, don't know a single straight guy who never married

Yes, my brother. Turns 50 this year. Never married and no kids.

Define "straight" in the 21st century...

There are man straight men who are not married. They have several baby mamas and kids all over the place but never married

Op what's your point?

I have a cousin who is an incel. He's 40, has never been in a serious relationship and went from living in his mother's basement to his sister's basement. He has a good job, but he repels women. I'm pretty sure he's never had sex. I know he frequents strip clubs. His sister is worried he's going to go off the deep end one day.

My uncle. He worked as a jr high/high school counselor for 30 something years. Figured that turned him off from wanting kids. Not sure why he never married. He was dating a much younger foreign woman before my dad passed. I remember my dad warning him she was no good.

I've known some. Occasionally there was something exotic in their background, like a lost love they never got over, but more often they had severe depression and/or problems with addiction. Or their refusal to have kids busted up their most serious relationships.

I have a couple of cousins in their mid-40s who didn’t marry, but have been shacked up with a women for years, so I don’t think they count as single. There’s an attorney coworker of about 43 who has never married and I’ve never heard about him dating someone. He’s really LGBT friendly so I think he’d be out if he was gay. Lives in a very nice house by himself.

R17, he sounds autistic

R19 same here. I've known several with long term girlfriends and the guys just wouldn't take the marriage step, and didn't have kids. I guess the gals were ok with that because they stuck around.

And I've known some who went from girlfriend to girlfriend until they just aged out and were suddenly alone. They probably thought of themselves as viable, being good looking, but they reached an age where with a limited inventory of possible female partners in a small town, what was left for them they either couldn't get (usually due to age) or didn't want. Or the women knew their history and wouldn't have them.

But what you pointed out is true. Looking beneath the surface, they all have had issues with alcohol or other addictions.

My uncle. He always had women in his life, but he would always say (his words, not mine) "no bitch is gonna get half of my money."

David Lee Roth

None that don't have mental illness, rage issues, an arrest record, or aren't "confirmed bachelors".

I know several, including my basement dwelling brother in law, who is in his early sixties. The common denominator for the ones I know is alcoholism.

My uncle, who is 70. He has a daughter (and now a grandson) and has remained friends with his daughter's mother. If he dates or dated in the past he keeps it to himself. I just think he likes to live alone and have his freedom.

I’m one at 50

R11 You must be popular.

I know two straight men who never married. Both don't have children.

One guy has lived with an older woman for many years (but I think he sees other women). I'm guessing she doesn't charge him rent.

My conclusion: these two guys never wanted to have kids and never wanted to end up paying alimony or dealing with "community property."

Almost every one I know who identifies as straight and lives with a woman has had some evidence of being bi.

There is also my second cousin who claims to be straight and he may be straight, he's late 40s. He lives with his aunt and her grandson.

By the way, just want to point out - a lot of you talking about someone living with some relative - if the person is single, they may just prefer to have da coy-to-day mpanionship at home, rather than living completely ALONE. After all, they're NOT married. So maybe they've found a way to not be totally alone. Is that bad?

I know one but I suspect he may secretly have some pedo tendencies with teen boys. He has a good friend who is a convicted sex offender with teen boys, and they both have a history of being involved with non profit camping organizations. This man has expressed that his friend was "misunderstood" so I tend to think he's the same, just didn't get caught.

"day-to-day companionship at home"

I have a high school friend who became a priest. Don't know if he's straight or not.

Richard Simmons

One of my golfing buddies. He's in his 50s. Always asks if anyone knows nice girls they can set him up with. I finally told him it sounds creepy and he needs to get on an online dating site but he won't.

I have a nephew in his a 30s who's definitely straight but has never had a girlfriend. I doubt he will ever get married. He is good looking and has no trouble getting laid which I guess is all he's looking for.

A lot of friends and coworkers who got divorced after shortish marriages and never remarried. And on the flip side, which I find horrifying, two of my closest straight friends, divorced after long marriages, have grown children and have married women in their early 30s, so chances are they're going to have to do the second family thing now that they're in their 50s. Ew.

[quote] He's in his 50s. Always asks if anyone knows nice girls they can set him up with. I finally told him it sounds creepy and he needs to get on an online dating site but he won't.

A guy in his 50s looking for "girls"? Are you sure he's straight?

@r35, "Richard Simmons "

He's just waiting on James Brolin to kick so that he can make his move on Babs

Yes, I know three straight men who never married although they have decent careers. One is high-level law enforcement. He's a lothario and has no problem finding female companionship.

Another is 63. He had girlfriends when young but never settled down. He is interested in much younger women.

The other is a lower-40's IT guy who is depressed and smokes a lot of pot. Ok-looking but not confident around women. Seems content with porn.

So most unmarried straight guys are suffering from depression?

I've known several straight men who never married. The incredibly sexy brother of a close friend of mine was such a horn dog he said he would never consider marrying someone and be left with one pussy to fuck for the rest of his life (if he kept his vows). I once went to lunch with him and his brother and as we were leaving the restaurant he saw this hot chick and went over to talk to her. We stood there 20' away and watched. His brother said to me "watch, he's going to pick her up". After about 10 minutes he came back and said "we're going to hook up and fuck tomorrow".

I'm in NYC and know two. They both married and divorced in their mid-20s, got vasectomies, and now bang pussy at will.

This character type is going to become more and more common.

The irony is that they're both smart, hardworking guys and would make good dads. They just don't want to be.

"They both married and divorced in their mid-20s, got vasectomies, and now bang pussy at will."

OP was asking for straight guys who never married, not for divorced guys

Most of the ones I've known tend to be losers or incels rather than womanizing playboy types. Or guys who have a live-in gf that they never felt the need to marry

[quote] After about 10 minutes he came back and said "we're going to hook up and fuck tomorrow".

I wonder if the hot chick knew that, yet.

I do know one guy in his 40's. Fit and Very good looking--JFK type. I think he's just used to getting whatever women he wanted--usually in bars

He's beginning to lose his hair as he ages. I doubt he'll get whatever woman he wants soon enough

"After about 10 minutes he came back and said "we're going to hook up and fuck tomorrow".

This is how he got back in touch...

My best friend; he spent his 20’s chasing women all over the place, as far as Australia, and he’s from Pittsburgh. He finally landed a long term relationship with a woman who didn’t want to be married; it lasted 11 years. The first 9 years were great but the last two were not; it ended about 8 years ago. He’s now 52 and still chasing women, but he’s desperate and terrified, drinks a lot and still wants a slim chick with a nice rack. He’s not a bad person, just lost. I’ve explained to him numerous times that women in our age group who are single are not looking for a boyfriend or husband even. But he doesn’t sleep around; it has to be a relationship. After the 3rd date, if he hasn’t made a move, and he doesn’t, they dump him. Queue another spiral, I’m a troll, nobody wants me….sigh

A new friend. He's in his mid 50s, claims he doesn't want to get married. He fucks everything it seems, he doesn't have a type. he's been fucking white chicks, black chicks, young, older and his latest one is....get this 75 years old! He's fucking a woman 20 years older!!! he's not ugly but there must be something wrong with him, his mom died 3 year ago and mothers' day was just the other day...

They're everywhere, but in order to get regular sex they have to be sexy with big dicks. Otherwise: Incel.

One. He’s dated a ton of women. He’s a recovering addict and really fucked up.

My 50 year old cousin, he was always good looking. He claimed American women didn't appreciate men and wanted to get a foreign bride but I think it was an excuse. He lives with his parents and they get along very well, do everything together including trips so he seems to be happy. I actually don't think he is gay.

continuing from r52. My cousin has never held a real job, he putts around with computers. He lives with his parents for free so I think another reason he doesn't get married is laziness.

I had a guy I worked with years ago who married an asian woman, a buy a bride thing. She moved her family here and spent all his money and they ended up divorced. When my cousin would drone on about how bad American woman are I kind of hoped something like that would happen to him.

I have a straight cousin who's close to 80 and never married. In some ways he's a nice guy and he had a decent career, but my uncle was truly crazy and really did a number on all his kids and their relationships. The English poet Philip Larkin, who wrote "They fuck you up, your mum and dad," was straight and never married.

I have tons of friends who never married. But most of them were also young Dads.

Lindsay Graham!

"My cousin has never held a real job, he putts around with computers. He lives with his parents for free so I think another reason he doesn't get married is laziness."

Well, that might explain why women weren't lining up to marry him and bear his children.

I knew a straight man (I'm pretty sure he was straight - he was a porn addict who constantly talked to me about women) who lived with his parents and 'putted around with computers' too. He at least didn't disparage women but he just never wanted to do anything. He just wanted women to come to him and be his mommy, do all the cooking and cleaning that his parents did for him. Unsurprisingly even though he was moderately good looking, nothing happened, so he ended up killing himself at 26-years-old.

I've known a few. They were all men with varying degrees of attractiveness but what they all had in common was they would only date white women. Obviously there are only so many to go around so they ended up alone, for now anyway.

This is a common American phenomenon I've noticed. White women are willing to date outside their race but white guys rarely are. Coupled with even the non- white guys who only want white women and you have a very limited pool of desirable women.

Sure, me. I'm 53, never married.

OP, level with us. You’re looking for straight men, over 35, to fuck you.

General Jim Mattis was a 'confirmed bachelor' but then married a couple years ago at age 71. Maybe it was a rebound from being enchanted by Elizabeth Holmes.
