SYDNEY (Reuters Life!) - Bachelor Carl Weisman got fed up of being classified as a playboy, a loser or a commitment-phobe so he set out to find out exactly why he and a growing number of eligible men were steering clear of marriage.

Weisman, 49, conducted a survey of 1,533 heterosexual men to research a book aiming to give women an insight into why some smart, successful men opted to stay single -- and help lifelong bachelors understand why they are still the solo man at parties.

He concluded that most men were not afraid of marriage -- but they were afraid of a bad marriage.

"Men are 10 times more scared of marrying the wrong person than of never getting married at all," Weisman told Reuters in a telephone interview.

What's considered to be a bad marriage and a "wrong" person to marry?

A bit off topic, but I just couldn't resist:

A marriage is bad when a man describes it to his potential mistress. A "wrong" person to marry is the very same mistress once she develops an ambition to become his next wife.
(I am just trying my hand at coming up with a new maxim, let me know if I succeed).

из старого и пошлого :grin:

A wrong person to marry: a one that makes you think about ‘вечность’ all the time, as “a time between when you finish and she is gone”

A woman becomes nagging only when she is not getting a courtesy of response from her man. :sad:
This is just a guess as well, especially since it's not my personal experience...
