I seem to always walk away from a bridal shower annoyed. Not at anyone in particular, just annoyed in general. Oooo-ing and aaahhh-ing over coffee pots and crock pots with a bunch of women eating cake isn't exactly my idea of a lovely afternoon.LunaNikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13981677669711596784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12752424.post-59157830777677823832008-04-18T15:27:00.000-04:002008-04-18T15:27:00.000-04:00I feel bad for that young woman because I know a l...I feel bad for that young woman because I know a lot of them in the same boat. It IS really hard to meet someone and it's scary because these days men stay kids for soooo long like they have all the time in the world while women hear their biologoical clock ticking.

Makes me miss my grandma!<BR/><BR/>How awesome that you two got along so well--I so know what you mean, I fall into a grandma/matchmaker role whenever I meet someone young and single. I guess I just want everyone to be in pairs (my OCD acting up I s'pose). <BR/><BR/>As for the roses . . . I'm like you. Don't need 'em.

It happened for me and a few others I know. When you get all worked up about it, you wouldn't know the right guy if he was staring you in the face :).<BR/><BR/>And flowers aren't necessary, but they sure are a nice gesture.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12752424.post-84565842064612304342008-04-16T14:52:00.000-04:002008-04-16T14:52:00.000-04:00Wow. 15 years.I don't even think I KNOW anyone th...Wow. 15 years.<BR/><BR/>I don't even think I KNOW anyone that long.<BR/><BR/>Now THAT'S romantic.Curiosity Killerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00809674831648572684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12752424.post-47549513956746529512008-04-16T13:37:00.000-04:002008-04-16T13:37:00.000-04:00"Senior love!" You're so funny.I had a friend who ..."Senior love!" You're so funny.<BR/><BR/>I had a friend who was getting pretty down about being single in her mid-thirties, and she was in a similar situation - we very well educated, well traveled, had an awesome job, made good money, and is gorgeous, to boot. I really think that guys were intimidated by that. Luckily, she met an equally smart, strong, and self-assured man who appreciated all those things about her and is now her husband.<BR/><BR/>And you're right about Prince Charming.Rimahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15883046753707687727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12752424.post-48916222151480052592008-04-16T13:30:00.000-04:002008-04-16T13:30:00.000-04:00what a lovely post.

My husband came along when for the first time in my life I really had no interest in a relationship. <BR/><BR/>and coming home early so that you can have alone time. That's bigger and better than flowers anyday!Frannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14913090555445927406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12752424.post-8043997397273085012008-04-16T12:56:00.000-04:002008-04-16T12:56:00.000-04:00I with you, it's the practical stuff that is so mu...I with you, it's the practical stuff that is so much more romantic.
