"Elizabeth became the prototype of the authoritarian ruler of the fifteenth century. A queen who ruled personally."

Why Queen Elizabeth would not marry?
when someone explained the answer to this question they tell us:
"She never married for the simple fact that by not saying yes to any proposal of marriage, (she did not say neither yes nor no)so the doors of the kingdoms of men who offered her marriage will remain open, well that  looks very good for everyone (within the Kingdom of England.) even though she was the queen and her duty was to ensure the good of the English people, I think there is another undercurrent in this decision.

Well my theory is:  Isabel was raised since childhood without a father, mother or any family or close tie, got used from the beginning of his reign to obey only her,take her the decisions about everything in her life and in her regin , because if it , had a council that advised her, she made ​​all the decisions, she had the power, so why marry when being alone was doing so well, then, what benefits had by not marrying?, maintained its authoritarian and sovereign  power, ought not to submit to any king.

Not if my theory is right or wrong, I just think that Queen Elizabeth was human and had ambitions as a human being. Is it really so crazy to think that she liked the power and would not share it?

This theory was based on what I read on the page: Elizabeth I of England
