OP..
The reason why warning women about dying alone doesn't hit is because they don't feel that they will die alone.
Especially women who are relatively attractive and is still catching....
The only way a woman is gonna know that shyt got real is a few years or so after they experienced not getting approached as much as they used to or once they see that men aren't trying to commit to them long term.
However, another thing is that if a woman who reaches past middle age is single, but has grown kids and the grandkids start coming, then what may happen is that the woman begins to live vicariously through her kids & grandkids, plus she may have a few close friends/loves ones that will help soak up idle time.
Before you know it, the are in their 60s and about to retire, no man, but they still have their faith in their religion plus receive unconditional love and support from her loved ones.
