So, I'm working at a temp job at the moment. It involves liaising
with members of the public for a week and a bit and there is a hell of a lot of
walking involved. I have another person as my partner on this chatting-walking gig.
Never met her before today but she made it very clear to me that she, let's
call her, er, Charlene was doing the job to scope out 'talent' to find her future
husband. She wants to get married, she already has an engagement ring - her
Prince Charming does not have to fork out for this - and she WILL get married.
There is no maybe in this. Charlene is a woman possessed. I found her intense
need to hog-tie a man to her for marital-there-is-no-way-we-will-ever-divorce-wedded
bliss fascinating and scary. On one hand she knows what she wants - man,
wedding ring and to become Mrs Charlene X. On the other, in my opinion, she's
scary obsessed to the point of not being realistic. I get that some women would
like to be a 'couple' but there is also the fact that not everyone marries. Sometimes
fate just doesn't make it so. I did point that out to her. Charlene's thoughts
on this are because too many women get involved with ' losers' and give up on
marriage and 'fate' is stupid. I personally think women like Charlene, who are so
marriage obsessed, scare men away. What man wants to be driven to marriage? And
to have your own engagement ring to expedite the proceedings? Scary much? It
begs the question what happens to the Charlene's of the world if they do not
marry?
