Finding a man was always one of the biggest problems In wt due to many factors
My last hall had 42 single women from 25 45 yrs of age many never married before
i felt sorry for many of them because the old "maybe jah don't want you to marry" line was wearing thin
i recall seeing longtime jw women complain about newly baptized sisters get a bro within 1 or 2 yrs of hitting the water
of course it did help that they looked like Vanessa Walliams or Hally Berry- but it was so hard trying to tell these "hot" women to wait on jah and stay busy- like one sister told me one night
"I want to GET BUSY" SMILE
my used to tell me the stories about how the sisters would dream about certain bro or how they would discuss what would happen if sister so and so died- yep they were sitting around waiting for a sister to die- esp once you hit the 30-45 group
We had one bookstudy n an apartment complex that was made up of 17 single women only myself and the reader were married
When we were studing the Family book none of the sisters would comment on the SEX lessons- my wife and the readers wife had to do it all-
MY WIFE Hated it with a passion- esp WELL YOU KNOW THE PARTS SMILE
It got so bad that we as a Body of Elders decided to move some folks around to mix it up
Due to the fact that they all lived in the complex many as roommates at the time we thought it was a great idea till the new bookstudy book turned out to be the family book
Well over on WOL they have a thread that shows the poor suffering of women when they are limited to on JW men and even then they end up with losers many times
Enjoy

Well it seems we are short of bros in my area. In the 4 congs that share my hall there are only 3 single bros my age. Two dont want to marry and the 3rd isnt spiritual enough. Within an hour of my home there are at least 14 congs,and Ive visited
most of them over the last few years.I could count on one hand the number of single brothers.Even at quick builds I havent noticed many or heard of many.
So I basically have given up looking. Even
in writing a brother I dont expect anything but friendship.If the right one comes along, great.If not there is the new system.
