I'm 35 and I hate, no that's not strong enough, I ABHOR the idea of having children.<BR/>So far as husbands go, i've got 4 engagement rings in a box because I just couldn't go through with it, in fact i'm living with someone right now and thinking of moving out, not because I want to break up but just so I can have my own space. Maybe i'm just commitment phobic but your story is a perfect example of what i'm terrified of.<BR/>I guess i'm not a "dreamer".Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16241302941941425752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9948767.post-55700767658377407752008-02-18T12:41:00.000-05:002008-02-18T12:41:00.000-05:00This is the truest thing I've heard in a while.

That woman has 3 kids and no husband...<BR/><BR/>I just want to say, that I understand the underlying message in Gottlieb's article: the perfect man does not exist.<BR/><BR/>I married "the perfect man." He takes out the trash, helps with our daughter, lets me pursue my dreams, encourages me to go out with the girls, attends to my needs, takes care of everything he says he will and treats me like a queen...but he, like all humans, has faults, and after 5 years of marriage, those faults which were so inconsequential when I said "yes" have become glaring holes in my affection for him. Such is life.<BR/> <BR/>But that is where commitment and adult communication/compromise come into the picture.<BR/><BR/>Love a man, faults included. But "settle" for a man you don't love? No way.elizadoohickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01619295952214896945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9948767.post-8750483837537620062008-02-15T15:23:00.000-05:002008-02-15T15:23:00.000-05:00Um, hi Internet.
