description: "There are 2.09 million 'leftover women' in Shanghai! More than 40% of them are aged 25-34, and there is also a large group in their 40s and 50s who earn 20,000 to 30,000 RMB a month, own homes and cars, but have never been married. It's not that they don't want to marry; it's that the suitors' conditions are far inferior, and they can't connect on a spiritual level. At matchmaking corners, women line up for miles, while men of the same age are almost non-existent. Honestly, they spent their youth striving for degrees and careers, only to realize too late. But who says women must get married? Here's the question: would you choose to live your life holding onto your wealth, or settle down in marriage?"
