At this rate death will have done us part before we even got together!

I need to be married or dead by my birthday!

It’s catastrophic almost – this shortage of equivalent types of men. Someone needs to do something! I wondered if I ought to do a SWOT analysis of this situation. I couldn't come up with any S's or O's though.

Threats:
1. Men seem to be getting married younger and younger
2. OR men seem to be putting off marriage until their mums tell them to stop bumming around
3. Most of them find themselves a mate in school or college. Every couple you see walking down the road look like they're in middle school. I'm curious to know what they talk about other than how chweet Ron and Hermione's romance is.
4. Most of the mates they find are sweet little things that look like they'd break if they were left alone for two seconds or made to carry their own popcorn.


"Girls have an unfair advantage over men: if they can't get what they want by being smart, they can get it by being dumb". - Yul Brynner

How can a woman be expected to be happy with a man who insists on treating her as if she were a perfectly normal human being.” - Oscar Wilde

Weaknesses:
1. I'm quite content in life and therefore to shift from this state of inertia would take a real force of nature.
2. Nobody seems to fit the bill for that force of nature. Is it me or them? Must be me. But to change would take a bigger force of nature.
3. I cannot be a helpless fluttery kind of girl who says things like "cho chweet" no matter how much guys seem to prefer that.

I've put up this quote before but I thought it'd be appropriate:
"A good man doesn't just happen. They have to be created by us women. A guy is a lump, like a doughnut. So first you gotta get rid of all the stuff his mom did to him. And then you gotta get rid of all that macho crap they pick up from beer commercials. And then there's my personal favorite...the male ego". - Roseanne Barr

So what's my conclusion? Find Frankenstein's lab book. Or pray really hard for a miracle. Death or a wedding, whichever is easier.

PS - Oh, I just found this one:
"The older theory was, marry an older man because they're more mature. But the new theory is men don't mature. Marry a younger one". - Rita Rudner
That means I'm totally justified in the whole Prince William situation.

PPS - I'm not really in an emo/kill-me-now state of mind.

Someone sent me this video. It's so adorable. I couldn't stop smiling.
