I found the comments on my Nov. 14 post interesting, and I appreciate all comments. I thought you might like to read the original article I was responding to, so here's the link to Independence Daze.
Don't get me wrong: I'm not belittling marriage. In fact, I would quite like to get married myself. But I don't believe I have to be married to be complete. I'd like a man in my life, but I can't make that happen by sheer will power. I've HAD to get along on my own, and this has changed me. I hope that the right man will come along, and I hope I'll be able to let him into my life. Many of my female friends are in the same boat, or at least a similar one. I don't know what to tell them. I hate to be so prosaic, prattling on about marriage and courtship. But hey, it worked for Jane Austen. But she was a genius. I'm just a romantic with an outer layer of cynicism.
