Soo maybe I'll read it....

So today instead of cleaning like I needed to be doing I was doing anything but..and went and got my nails and a pedicure today...well I was reading a magazine while getting my pedicure..of course I forgot which one it was but..anywho...there was this article about an author named Lori Gottleib who wrote "Marry him...the case for settling for Mr Good Enough"...I have never heard of her but apparently she wrote this book about women being way too picky about men and wanting everything about their significant other to be perfect in everyway with the smallest flaw being a huge turn off or well deal breaker...How she was not worried about being single forever and if she didnt get married well then she wasnt too worried about it..but now that she is in her 40's she feels a little differently about things and trying to see what can still be done...well I was thinking to myself...I know some of the people..omg I am that girl!! I do want to get married and live a great life and enjoy everything but...I am sooo incredibly picky and weird about guys that I hate it... Im not sure if its just because of past not so awesome relationships or if Im really that weird..!!?? However ...I do not feel that I should settle for certain things that dont make me happy ..im not trying to sound like a dive..because im not really that much of a diva..well only a few rare days... but I just feel like when I have met the person I am supposed to be with that I will just automatically know..I just want everything about me to know that I couldnt live without this person and that yes I can live with their flaws...because everyone has them..im sure that I have more than I even know about .... so all in all...I think I am going to read this book...I mean couldnt hurt do ya think?? :) Ps...its not that I have a hard time meeting guys...because thats not it..but its just wanting to like a guy enough to want to continue something without being scared away by something petty...... anyone have any similar stories or comments...or a love story..I love happy endings!! :)

  2. Hey! Stumbled upon your blog- I am all about reading marriage/dating books right now because it fascinates me how men/women work. Let me know if you read this and what you think. Please and thank you! xoe

  3. I have the same problem that I think you're talking about here, being not really too "picky" but thinking that some man will be the man of your DREAMS and be PERFECT for you. Fact being, no man will "complete" anyone, which has been a struggle for me to understand as I am undergoing the healing of a break up! So.. with that in mind, this book looks great. I think its true that sometimes us girls think a man should be mr. wonderful when guys aren't perfect just like we aren't! :)
