We all want it all. And if we GET it all, we'll change the meaning of the word "all" to include new items.
Most of us understand this and accept that life is trade-offs and we prioritize. Some of us are just never satisfied, incapable of contentment in an imperfect world.
I think what women want coalesces in practice to polygamy. They'd rather be one of many attached to Chad, than settle for monogamy with Joe the Plumber. Men are wired differently. If that baby isn't ours, we don't want to be stuck paying for Chad's Saturday night from 3 years ago.
It turns out that traditional marriage means more happiness for more men AND women. But both men and women, without guidance and structure laid down by their elders, will make bad decision after bad decision. And they won't realize it until they, themselves, are unhappy and frustrated elders, who STILL don't understand what went wrong. They'll blame it on everything but the fact that they lost the ability to pair bond by riding so many different horses on the sexual carousel.
You're not finding Mr./Mrs. Goodbar. You're making yourself less and less likely of ever being someone ELSE's Goodbar, because the carousel changes you. You want that perfect, loyal mate, but you, yourself are never going to be a perfect mate for anyone else, by the very nature of your search.
