Matrons: — How do you see it now from the height of your years: Did you not get married until you were 40 because you didn’t want to, or because you wanted to, but it didn’t work out, “there was no destiny”? Unim: — I have had 18 marriage proposals in my life. This is more than other girls get. I didn’t get married because I didn’t choose worthy men, but chose destructive ones. And this choice was due to psychological problems, which were resolved only by the age of 38-39. As soon as I did this, everything worked out immediately. Thus, in most cases, we block the road for ourselves. Matrons: — Relatives, acquaintances, work colleagues were very bothered by the question “well, when will it finally happen”? What did you answer them? Unim: — Starting at the age of 26, my parents regularly harassed me. Because of this, I almost married a good, but unloved man. After 35, they stopped asking this question, but began to harass me with reproaches - I missed this, I missed that, driving me into even greater depression. I tried to explain, but my parents refused to understand me. I answered strangers quite harshly: “It’s none of your business,” but affectionately, with the intonation of Renata Litvinova. It works very well. Answer: “Why are you interested?” (question to question) is also very effective. Matrons: — Your professional, scientific activity made life full, interesting, rich? Didn’t have the time or desire to cry into your pillow out of loneliness? Unim: — You won’t be satisfied with just one profession. I traveled a lot, spent a lot on myself - travel, pleasure, massage, clothes and - psychologists. I have 10 years of experience in psychology. I was not alone - I always had fans. If they weren’t there, it was because I didn’t want it. There was no person with whom it was good and calm. Matrons: — Perhaps traditional marriage has outlived its usefulness, and getting married is old-fashioned? Unim: - I believe that since the Lord created us in pairs - a man and a woman, then if a person does not want to become a monk or nun, it is better for him to find a partner. “It’s bad for one,” said Ecclesiastes, and I agree with him. Matrons: — What would you advise women who suffer from the fact that they are not married and are “already over”? Unim: — I believe that if something doesn’t work out in your personal life, then there are serious psychological reasons. After all, life actually gives us a lot. We don't take it. We can't do it. we don't like what they give us. We have to ask the question - why? And start with yourself. We need to look for a good psychologist. The main thing here is to eradicate your own feeling of unhappiness (this could be a feeling of uselessness, inferiority, dislike of yourself and other non-). We need to recover psychologically - learn to be happy and whole again. We were like that in childhood - until we were broken. The second thing is to practice religion. That is, pray, ask: “Give understanding and have mercy, instruct, explain.” You shouldn’t always ask to give your husband, the Lord will give, but can you take it yourself? Do you recognize the right one? The third is the body level. Depression is best relieved by movement and massage. Matrons: — To get married, do you have to wait for great love or can you just marry a good person? Unim: — The concept of love does not include mockery, contempt, indifference, causing pain, indifference, lack of care and interest. Unfortunately, many women betray themselves and their interests for the sake of so-called “love” - for example, for years “loving” a person who does not care about them. If a woman straightens her twisted brains with the help of a psychologist, then she will understand what true love is. This is when you feel good. You are loved, understood, accepted and it is mutual. At the same time, each of you is an individual. I don’t like this legend about halves; it was invented by flawed people. It is impossible for a stranger to make a person happy, since this is his job. A person must first become happy himself, and then he or she will certainly meet someone with whom happiness will double. Good luck! Don't give up! The Lord is merciful and He has a lot of things, including for you!

According to the government statistics website, almost 15% of women get married over 35 years of age. The average age of marriage in 2017 for Russian girls is 28 years. And the older we get, the more clearly we realize that marriage is a union of two like-minded people, and not just falling in love. Love can really be carried throughout life. To do this, it is important to find a soul mate.

Russian women have a stereotype: “After 40, I’m old and ugly, men don’t need me.” Aging so early in one's soul was the norm in the 19th century, when life expectancy was a maximum of 50 years. But it's the 21st century! Cosmetology and medicine work wonders. After 40 years, they give birth, travel, meet people, love. Only the old at heart, already at 40, are preparing for retirement and discussing “Let them talk.” Get rid of templates and your whole life will open up.

Build your self-confidence by highlighting your advantages over young girls:

  • You are wiser. According to statistics, marriages concluded at 40-45 years of age are stronger than early ones. Mature people know what they want and who they need. They learned to love and devote themselves to their family. Psychologists have long noted a sad trend: young people of the 21st century are growing up late. She is more infantile and irresponsible, which is why the number of divorces among young people is more than half of all marriages. Young people are often thrown from one extreme to another, and due to superficiality, many are not capable of starting a family.
  • Are you financially secure?. A mature woman does not need a rich husband, like a young student, so she does not face an unhappy marriage of convenience.
  • You are especially beautiful and relaxed. A woman at 40 can be very sexy if she takes care of herself: goes to the gym, maintains youthful skin. Self-confidence and independence give a special charm. Even young guys are sometimes unable to resist a mature lady, dreaming of a confident, beautiful woman. The beauty of some women is revealed only in adulthood. Compare Victoria Beckham in her youth and at 41.


With all the advantages, you have a good chance of getting married after 40, the age when you can start new life, taking into account mistakes and experience.

Where to meet a man?

  • The Internet is the most common place for dating, even among young people. Here you have almost every chance to find your ideal in appearance, age, and interests. Meet in social networks, on dating sites, anonymous chats: VKontakte and Odnoklassniki groups, Mamba, Topface. Tinder and Badoo are mostly used by young people aged 20-25. Disadvantages of online dating: high competition, anonymity, impunity and fraud.
  • In restaurants. You can meet in a cafe or restaurant where men go for lunch on a working day. Visit such establishments at lunchtime; they can be found near large business centers.
  • In the newspapers. Yes, yes, and they still use this outdated method. In the local press there are often advertisements for the search for a second half.
  • Sanatoriums, resorts. There are many examples when women found their chosen ones on vacation.
  • Theme evenings. Want to find yourself a rocker? Attend rock concerts and biker shows. Do you dream of romance with a subtle spiritual organization? Attend literary evenings.
  • Friends of friends. Ask a friend to introduce you to her single brother or a sister to introduce her cute co-worker.
  • In other places where a potential chosen one may be: cinema, gym, theater, seminars. Be open, otherwise the chances will be reduced to 0.

Don't get hung up on finding a partner. Travel, take courses, go to the gym, and happiness will come on its own.

What prevents you from getting married after 40?

Here are the most common reasons that lead to loneliness:

  1. The psychology of a woman over 40 often prevents her from getting married. She is accustomed to her way of life, a way of life that has been formed over decades. It will be difficult for such a woman to let a new person approach her. The solution to the problem lies in developing a habit. While communicating, people fall in love and gradually become attached to each other. Both are happy, so they are ready to adapt.
  2. Another category of ladies is desperately eager to get married. Men run away from women who are not self-sufficient, so it is important to maintain distance.
  3. Leadership and power also interfere with marriage. By the age of 40, many women have realized themselves, and in some cases they exhibit a tough character and excessive masculinity.
  4. Ungroomed. Many women over 40 believe that their train has left, they give up and stop taking care of themselves. Because of this, their beauty gradually fades: they gain overweight, wear unattractive clothes, do not take care of their skin, etc. Even at a young age, unkempt girls do not arouse interest in men.
  5. Past grievances against men. By the age of 40, a woman can be in a relationship with a man more than once. And if during this time men behaved unworthily towards her, then she can conclude that there are no good men and they only cause pain. But in reality, the problem is not with men, but with her. Perhaps she chose the wrong men or built relationships with them incorrectly. In this case, you need to read books on the psychology of relationships.
  6. Negative thinking. If a woman believes that her time has passed and constantly just whines, without doing anything to find female happiness, then it is unlikely that anything will change in her life. Nobody likes whiners and women with dull eyes.
  7. If a woman is constantly busy building a career or solving business problems and has practically no free time, then there is little chance that she will get married. Since building relationships requires time and effort, and she simply doesn’t have that time. In such a situation, it is important to set priorities and manage your time wisely.


How to become a wife after 40?

Mature men look for women using the same criteria as in their youth, only more carefully. At 17, you can register a marriage out of stupidity, because the girl is beautiful, but at 40, men have higher demands. Important for them:

  • Comfort, kinship of souls. Without this, not a single union will be built.
  • Self-esteem. Men idolize ladies who respect themselves and do not allow their internal boundaries to be violated. Less jealousy and suspicion - these qualities make you cheaper in the eyes of your partner. Everyone in a couple should have their own personal space. Go out alone to go shopping, meet with friends, go to the gym, and let the man go to see friends or go hunting without you.
  • Appearance. Even adults judge by the cover. Many ladies, after 30 years of age, do not pay attention to their appearance: they gain weight, do not take care of their skin and hair, and dress in shapeless overalls. They have already mentally given up on themselves as a woman. How can men like these? Go to the gym, the pool, make an appointment with a stylist and you will change radically.
  • Confession. Praise your chosen one, show that he is dear to you. Even adult men are susceptible to compliments and attention.
  • Care. Gifts, cookies you bake, and moral support can melt a man’s heart. Is the man sick? Make him delicious tea with honey and massage. Such amenities bring the couple very close.

The course How to find a man for a happy relationship, developed by the famous psychologist Alexander Sviyash and Yulia Tarasova, will help you find the man of your dreams and build a happy relationship with him.

Quite a lot of women are left without a husband by the age of forty. Some do not strive to start new relationships, not wanting to disrupt the established rhythm of an established life, or having forgotten how to trust men after cheating or divorce. Others, on the contrary, strive with all their might to find a candidate for husband and go with him to the Civil Registry Office. But is it possible to get married after 40?

Why do people get married after 40?

Due to various life situations, it happens that by the age of 40-45 a woman is left without a husband. She may go through a divorce or never get married at all. Some of the forty-year-old women close themselves off, convincing themselves that they are not alone, but free, making the decision to live without a husband. The second part continues the active search for a spouse.

Celebrities who got married after 40 include Salma Hayek, Nicole Kidman, Olga Cabo, Carla Bruni and many others.

You can meet a life partner at any age, including after 40-45 years. This is a reality that many women prove.

Why get married after 40? There are 3 main reasons for this:

  • Finding financial support. Not all women by this age have a stable job that allows them to be financially independent. This can happen when a man provided for the family. Some people think that after 40-45 years it is easier to find a good one, the right husband than a good job.
  • Fear of loneliness. It is experienced by those who have been married for a long time, but for some reason are left alone (divorce or widowhood). Women, often left with children, simply do not know how to live independently, so they need someone they can look after or who will take care of them.
  • Finding love. This need is natural, it has nothing to do with financial independence or the need to be close to someone. In this case, real sincere feelings are important. Such women are a bit idealistic; they are not interested in how many times they can get married. They will look for their one and only, their other half.

Married after 40 years: fairy tale or reality

If some people believe that the chance of getting married after 40 tends to zero, then this is categorically wrong. Indeed, in their youth, not only some women were unable to meet their husbands, but also many men remained bachelors. There are no less of them who are divorced.

Men strive to find their permanent partner, dreaming of a family and children. At the same time, 40-45 year old ladies have a lot of advantages over young girls:

  • They have an attractive appearance. At this age, a woman knows how to maintain her natural beauty, she is quite slim, and wrinkles are just beginning to appear.
  • They know how to run a household. Middle-aged women are often excellent housewives. They know how to cook, know a lot of tricks, create comfort, and this is what men want.
  • They are self-sufficient. Mature ladies know very well what they want from life; they have long found themselves. They do not behave like young people.

Such women are much more suitable for men to start a family than young girls. Therefore, the chances of getting married are quite high.

How to get married while being a mother

Some ladies believe that having children only scares men away. This is not true, because for someone who wants to be close to a woman, her having children is not an obstacle. On the contrary, this testifies to her femininity, her ability to support the family hearth, and create a full-fledged family.

It is possible to meet love at 40-45 years old; having children is not a hindrance for such a marriage.

Getting married after 40 is realistic, to do this you need to start with yourself and your goals. If you are planning to get married for the first time, you need to reconsider your own requirements for a candidate. Often the image of a prince on a white horse drawn in youth only hinders the search for a life partner. Nobody is perfect, neither are you.

To get married successfully, you need to take care of your appearance, visit a hairdresser, and go to the gym. It is also important to balance the psychological state.

If you are disappointed in men after a divorce or a painful breakup, first you need to cope with depression and nervous disorders. You need to leave any situation behind and continue moving forward without losing faith in your own strength.

The choice of a husband depends on the goals pursued:

  • If you want to find a financial partner, you need to carefully monitor yourself, be patient, wise, and judicious. Wealthy men will appreciate these qualities. Such a lady should not throw hysterics for any reason, including jealousy, or complain about her health. Her trump card is the ability to create family warmth and comfort. Make an appointment with a doctor or get free consultation possible here.
  • A woman wants to get married at 40 and give birth to the man she loves, looking for love. She doesn’t care what his income or social status is, how old he is, what his achievements are. To find your other half, you need to not get hung up on the topic of marriage. Let go of the situation, and fate itself will find you.
  • If a woman decides to get married after 40 years old, having a fear of loneliness, then she should look for a man much older or younger than her. They require care, attention, and care. Affection will reign here. Such women should avoid peers, because without love such a marriage will not last long.

The age “after forty” is considered very difficult, a turning point. Some of our women explain difficult situations in this period of life this way: crisis adolescence and are interested in the question how to get married after 40 who until now have not found their chosen one and have not started a family, and perhaps after an unsuccessful marriage, after a divorce.

From 39 to 42 years of age (different generations experience it differently), the planet Uranus stands in opposition to its position in the birth chart. This planet gives each of us the opportunity to be independent and willful, original and independent, not to obey established rules and norms. Therefore, by the age of 40, a woman, having acquired a profession, raised children, realized the importance of her own personality, gets the opportunity to demonstrate her freedom and independence. The aspect of Uranus, which does not tolerate any restrictions, strongly pushes us towards this.

That is why, after forty, unions that were based on a sense of duty and obligations are often broken, and it is not easy, but possible, to formalize a new marriage, to get married.


Single women ask themselves whether it is necessary to get married after forty and whether it is even possible to find a husband at this age. And the older a woman gets, the fear of loneliness only intensifies. Are you also already a little over 40, and you are not sure that you will meet your one and only? Know that a lot depends on you.

First you need to get rid of everything that prevents you from meeting and strengthening your relationship with a man. Let's look at some tips to help you do this.

  • Do you think that everything good men already married? But according to simple math, there are just as many divorced men as there are divorced women. But aren’t there loving fathers, caring sons, and devoted friends among divorced men?
  • Have you already had a great love that happens only once in a lifetime? And you no longer believe that this can happen again? Instead, tell yourself: “If I loved and was loved, then all this energy of love has not gone away! She is in me! So let her, like a magnet, attract new love to me!”
  • Are you waiting for love, but doing nothing to make it come into your life? If you don't take steps towards her, you're unlikely to wait for her. Of course, new acquaintances can bring new disappointments, but they can develop into a real feeling. Meet, meet, talk, get to know new people. There is very little chance that happiness will knock on your door. But these chances increase with the number of new acquaintances and connections.
  • Do you live a very busy life, you have a lot of work, you are busy all the time, and therefore you simply have no time to waste time on dating? If a woman really thinks so, this means only one thing - she does not need a serious relationship and marriage. You will have to make a choice between your usual comfortable life and new behavior, where there is a risk of making mistakes or being deceived. If you really want to get married, devote time to finding new acquaintances and meeting people. You can even set yourself a special goal, for example: one new acquaintance with a man every week.
  • Did someone once cruelly deceive and betray you? And now you are sure that most men are liars and cheaters? Then you are making a very dangerous mistake. After all, if you really think so, then these are the people you attract into your life! When you learn to see the good in people, good people will appear in your life more and more often.
  • Has your experience shown that men are not ready and do not want a serious relationship? Or maybe it’s you who don’t know how to build and maintain such relationships? Are you afraid of being disappointed again or experiencing another breakup? Think about it. Better yet, seek advice from experts who can help you understand yourself better.

What you can try to get married successfully, but reviews from married women say that there is one who has magical properties for single unmarried ladies.

It's not all that fatal. Astrologer's advice They say that in search of a potential man - husband, in communication you should not focus on formalizing the relationship. First of all, you yourself are not ready for this. Uranus, raging within you during this period, will not allow you to limit your independence to a stamp in your passport.
If you have met the man of your dreams, look in him first of all for those traits that unite you spiritually and make you like-minded people and friends. It is they who will subsequently become the key to a long-term union. Beware of connections that arose based on purely physiological attractiveness. Moreover, do not place high hopes on relationships that appeared under circumstances that brought you together through material relationships.

Find a husband younger or older

Not only women, but also men are susceptible to the destructive aspect of Uranus. Hence the next advice. At this age, do not strive to marry someone your age - he, like you, is in search of freedom. You can pay attention to a younger partner. But keep in mind that by the age of forty, he will also begin to reassess his values. Better take a closer look at those who are older than you. In any case, the next “tearing” aspect of freedom-loving Uranus will not begin for him until he is 60 years old. So you have time to “endure and fall in love.”

Live to your heart's content

What if HIM is not on the horizon? Enjoy what your years give you. After all, nature has no bad weather, no bad age. Be yourself. Be free. Be interesting to yourself and others. Do something that you have always dreamed of, but did not have the opportunity to do due to many obligations to others. And for sure your dreams will begin to come true.

Don’t make getting married your number one goal.

A woman should always be ready to meet her future husband. The soul must be free and open to give way to love. How to get married after 40 years- just don't dream about it, let go of this goal. This is one of the most important rules. You just need to set a goal for the cathedral. You should want to “not get married” but to build a serious relationship with your loved one. Of course, you can constantly think and want to get married, tell all your friends, dream and soar in the clouds, fantasize, and then just throw this thought out of your head and not think about it anymore.
