Could this be a good advice?!!!!

“I would say even if he’s not the love of your life, make sure he’s someone you respect intellectually, makes you laugh, appreciates you … I bet there are plenty of these men in the older, overweight, and bald category (which they all eventually become anyway).”

I think it is :))

I huv read the rest of the article thx 4 the link by the way

nd I found the theory very interesting coz we all huv this vision of Mr right that he is handsome, tall ,gentleman ,well cultured, rich nd good behavior man.

That's all just crap coz no one like that

Still settling for the available is not a good advice even if u r a single mom .... you just huv to search for what u want without exaggeration

Liked ur bold note thing :))

(i haven't finished the article just yet, so i am speaking gerneally)

it is more than just good advise!

u see, it's very important that the one u marry is someone you respect intellectually, makes you laugh, appreciates you... that should make him the love of ur life at a point! because if the love of your life is someone who does not have those qualities, then chances r this love will die and there will be casualties!

those qualities will cover all the other aspects u know because we tend to respond more to those who have enough of the other qualities as well...

i wouldn't call him a mr. good enough in that case i guess.

ma 3alina welcome to my blog :).

I totally agree with u that Mr.Perfect is a big myth. But I've always believed that there is the Mr. Almost Perfect who in my opinion does have better features than Mr.Good Enough. I do wonder if I'm right.

insomniac, I do agree that a girl should marry someone she respects intellectually, makes her laugh, appreciates her, but I was wondering is that ALL a girl should look for when searhing for husband? Nothing about personality, common interests, social and cultural compatiability to be considered?

that's what i tried to say earlier!

that people respond better to those whom they can connect with on a social/intellectual/cultural level... 'settling' for the one you respect intellectually, makes you laugh, appreciates you does ot mean u would have nothing else in common! or that he'd be uncompatable as far as other criteria are concerned...
