Why Do Women Marry Down, But Date Up?
I've observed a trend where many women seem to date "up," in terms of looks, finances, and intelligence. They often pursue attractive, successful, and intellectually stimulating men. However, when it comes to marriage, it appears that many women choose partners who are, in some respects, "below" their level—whether that be in appearance, financial status, or other attributes. What factors contribute to this phenomenon?

Maybe those types of women mature by the time they marry. If they’re just going for looks and financial ability then maybe they’re a bit shallow. I mean, I get the importance of what a man does for a living, but his wallet and his looks aren’t good enough choices to be committed to a man. There has to be more than that.
A good-looking man with money can also come off as being arrogant, thinking he’s better, and can be hard to deal with. That could be one other reason. A man that is like this does not always mean he’s a nice package that a guaranteed good catch.
