THE List
Introduction: Recently, a NBC News reported that the average age for marriage is rising. The report suggested that this may be the result of higher standards that individuals have for their mate. So, today, I ask you about your standards via your compilation of requirements, you know, your LIST.
The Question(?): Most of us, over the course of our single days, have compiled a list of characteristics that we'd love our mate to possess. These lists are often counseled in our heads when we meet spousal prospects or in our general dating situations. Some of us have written this list on paper.
Do you have a LIST? What characteristics must your mate possess according to your list? What things would you be willing compromise on your list?
Married folks: What things were on your list? Did you find the mate that possessed your requirements?
