[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Only somewhat related.... Amazon how hard women work to snag and marry an attractive, successful UMC man and then how little they do to keep them satisfied after they marry and have kids with them.

Not that hard to snag one away, women get complacent[/quote]

I didn’t work hard at all. They quite literally fell into my lap from ages 25-32 (post-breakup with college boyfriend) and then I picked the next one to marry at 33. All Ivy educated with grad degrees, all 1%+ earners - I loved spending time with them and being wined and dined.

All in all, three long-term relationships, a number of lighter dalliances, and 4-5 six month or so relationships. Honestly maybe I should start a workshop series; there seems to be quite the demand for these counseling services and plenty of bad advice going around.

But fundamentally, yes, agree with you PP that there should be more of a focus on what the marriage means before vows are said, not just one’s wedding table settings. Dating around and experiencing different charming and brilliant men in my twenties and early thirties helped me figure out what was important- both in terms of what I prioritized in a partner, but also how I could bring my best self to the relationship.

Early thirties is prime time for putting lessons into practice and finding a thoughtful, wonderful partner who knows what he wants as much as you do. Maybe not in Indiana, but most certainly in NYC, DC, LA, etc.[/quote]
