[quote=Anonymous]I have an almost 8 year old. She has asked me what the term “the one” means and I’ve discussed with her that I don’t believe there’s just one person on the planet who would be a good fit but I was lucky to find a person who was a good fit. I tell her about traits I like about my spouse / her dad (he’s a good listener, he makes me laugh, he was so excited to be a father...) I wouldn’t presume at this age (maybe ever?) to guess at what traits she’d want some day or even if she ever wants to get married. I don’t want her to have the assumption that I expect that path for her. I would like her to have a life partner but she might choose something else. [/quote]
