and now she deserves scorn and ridicule for being too choosy
Rosie, some of the guys on the "I hate marriage" threads are just down right scary. No sane woman would want them under ~any~ circumstances, so please don't let 'em yank your chain.

Is it 4:15 yet? Maybe I should go check out the rain garden site.

I know a lot of those folks can be dismissed. The posts that really get to me are the happily married folks that say things like "I got married at 21, and I wouldn't have it any other way. Anyone who waits is obviously not right in the head." Worded diffferently, of course.

In my case, it ain't a matter of "waiting". And not everyone follows - or should follow - the exact same path.

Admittedly, if I could truly stop comparing my path to that of others (like my parents, for example), I wouldn't be so worried that things haven't gone the same way for me. So I'm guilty of the same thing.
