How many articles can be written on this topic? All of them seem to talk about how these nice women just can't find a good man anymore.....

Sounds to me like this lady wants to marry a guy with 50 years of wisdom packed in a 25 year-old brain, and no rough edges.

And of course, both men and women see in all the media this idea that you can't have a marriage unless you're always madly in love and having spectacular sex with a beautiful partner.

It's all about expectations, and how we see our roles in marriage.

There's nothing here that a little churching-up wouldn't take care of.

Good point! It's unrealistic to expect to have things perfect from the beginning. I got married when I was 22, to a 26-year-old Air Force Sergeant. We were both self-centered idiots, except for being Republicans. After 15 years, we're a lot closer to being the spouses, and the parents, God wants us to be. Nothing worth doing is effortless!
