When you're a little girl, one tends to dream like the fairy tales that the Disney company turns into movies. Prince Charming is going to come and sweep you off your feet to take you away from your misery and heartache. And then you've got Barbie that tells you it's good to have a career but still be Ken's girlfriend/wife/significant other. Once you're an adult you realize that if you're the girl that has to be "rescued" you're probably never going to get a date or if you do it is with someone that you don't want to date. At the same time if you're "too smart" then sometimes you're not asked out because people expect you to want more than what they have. Truth of the matter is that what I think that most girls want is someone that's willing to work for a living, get along with our friends and family to some degree, and doesn't mind leaning on the girl when he needs something as long as she can lean on him when she needs support. No matter what the salary or education level, that can be a challenge to find.
So what's my point? (since I do tend to ramble a bit)
I managed to stumble into a relationship with a guy that gave me more of what I was looking for, especially the things I didn't know I wanted. We clicked and it works. And the guy is crazy enough to think he wants to spend the rest of his life with me. So who am I to argue?
Although how on earth does one plan a wedding? Guess I'll find out.
