Many women in society want to be independent but they may have social pressures from family to select a man. Many people are not self aware and don't understand what their motives are and how to be true to themselves. They is a huge social pressure to marry and there are many advantages for security. Marriage is a social, emotional and legal contract.
All people I think want and need a level of support from others. A healthy balance of giving support and receiving support is good. Not knowing the specific situation it is really impossible to make an assessment.

In practice, most people do not hold out for their ideal partner. They take someone who is sufficient for them.

Unless you're not sufficient for anyone.


That's a possibility, but unlikely, given the size of the human population. However the odds that you will cross paths with that person at the right time, and connect with that person, could be unlikely, depending on a variety of factors, and given you do cross paths with that person at the right time, and connect, one must consider the odds that that person is also sufficient for you.
