Men don't settle down because of the right woman. They settle down because they are finally ready for it. Whatever woman they're dating when they get ready is the one they settle down with, not necessarily the best one or the prettiest, just the one who happened to be on hand when the time got to be right. Unromantic, but still true. Laurell K. Hamilton
About This Quote

The reason why men don't settle down is because they are always looking for the right woman. You can say that women are naturally more romantic and are more likely to settle down, but when they do, it's not always because they've found the right one. Sometimes they settle down with the first man who comes along. This often happens in arranged marriages.
