I’m a woman in my mid-20s and would like to get married soon.

I’m だて◎ゆめ, a male member. I met my wife through an introduction from a coworker. My job is pretty male-dominated, and there were no women at my workplace, so a coworker introduced me to someone—and we ended up getting married. It’s not all that different from what I’m doing at the dating club now（笑） I asked, “Would you like to see each other?” She said, “Sure!” And once we started dating, I’ve been seeing that one woman for three years now. Women only get more beautiful as they enter the workforce, while I just keep gaining gray hair and wrinkles, so the two of us are becoming less and less of a match（笑)

I’m Flag Maker, a column writer. I started dating my spouse while we were students and got married shortly after entering the workforce. So, for my age, I’ve been married for quite a long time. For me, marriage goes from passion to compromise to commitment. Sorry for saying something so unromantic, but honestly, when it comes to a marriage partner, anyone would be more or less the same to me. I’d probably endure things, compromise, and make the commitment not to get divorced regardless of who I married. So in that sense, I’m glad I got married young. If I got divorced and remarried, even if my new partner were incredibly beautiful, I’d just have to go through another troublesome period, eventually compromise, and then make the same commitment all over again. Honestly, that sounds exhausting. That said, I do think this way of looking at things may be somewhat male-oriented.

I’m Nana Ayase ♡ He’s one of my employees. My father kept arranging marriage meetings for me, and before a third one came up, I thought I had to find someone somehow. So I invited my husband, whom I already knew and who happened to be nearby, and that’s how we started dating. If only I’d had more time to date around, I wouldn’t have made that mistake… Don’t marry just anyone. Date plenty of people and develop a good eye for them (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ I hope you find someone nice.
