ahhh marriage, a dream within a dream (I think that is how the Princess Bride line went?)
I have no plans (and no prospects) to get married ands it annoys me when people say -you'll find someone, you will get married etc.
It would be nice to find someone to share my life with but i will not settle (I see so many people do this). If it happens-great, if it doesn't then so be it-I already have the cats
. Besides it is difficult to find a man that likes opossums, vultures, owls, birds of any kind etc...as much as I do (unless I marry another vet which isn't likely going to happen).
I do agree with you Valkyrie-I see many young women say I can't do this or that until I get married. There is a woman I work with that is 25 years old and met her current boyfriend through a friend over the internet. She has already picked out the wedding dress and he hasn't even asked her to marry him. He won't return her calls half the time (she was complaining about this a couple of weeks ago). She is so focued on marriage that she doesn't even care about how he is treating her. It is sad to see her obsess about this guy (she is definitely an example of the extreme). I feel sorry for her-her life is not going the way she had planned (marriage, kids etc..). She needs to stop focusing on this guy and get an education so she can move out of her parents house. Unfortunately, she is so focued on the idea that a man will be taking care of her - what if it never happens?
Another friend was so focused on marrying a man with $$. She did -3 years ago. He makes very good money and they have a very nice lifestyle but they no longer sleep on the same floor of the house. His personality reminds me of Scott Peterson-scarry.
