it's going to sound bad, but i think it's because everyone's expectations have gotten higher... of themselves and of other people... and where before you knew that you were going to marry someone in the town you were living in, or the one just down the dirt road... now, you could find just about anyone...anywhere... if you look hard enough...
also... now, we all see so many more people, so we realise what the potential is out there... how very many different ways we could fulfil our dreams... which kind-of puts you in a kid-in-a-candy-store kind-of dilemma, where you only have enough (ahem) money for one, but you've got so many choices...
or at least that's what i'm going to say for now.
it's like realising that you're not fishing in a bucket with only minnows, but you're in the ocean, so you're not sure what kind of line to use, what kind of bait, or hook to set... nor even where to set your boat...
...which therefore makes me all that much happier to see friends of mine find people they want to spend the rest of their lives with

What makes me sadder is that even Hitler got married! Damn! If this person we consider a monster can get married then why can't I?
(There Par fulfilled the Hitler to obscurum (or however that phrase goes) quota for the year.)

Congratulations Jere and Dana!
Though you are making all the single losers on this board feel even lonelier (probally a sp).
