I think that someone should have pointed out that these women only exist in books, and in the real world humans in general are known to mate and couple. Especially in the western world, I don't buy there's many people waiting around at all.
Hypothetically if this situation were to exist at a high number I would say that it's a combination of evolutionary traits and socialization (you have this notion, after all, that we wait around when a true sociologist should have pointed out that in reality the individual was likely to have married someone else, as all statistics at every level of education or economic class imply you will be married if you live in the advanced western world).
