One thing young people haven’t seemed to have gotten through their heads, is that dating/marriage is about compromises

[swaggyp1]

The important things are that you both want to have kids and find the other moderately decent looking

But you may have to compromise on some things

You may want a brunette, but the person who likes you is a blonde

You may want a slim nose, but maybe she has a wider nose

You may want large breasts, but maybe she doesn’t have large breasts

Refusing to compromise is how people end up as lifelong bachelors and spinsters

date the girl who loves you
not the girl that you like

Compromise on her looks but never on her character/morals

Compromise on her looks but never on her character/morals

to an extent

you can't find her ugly, but you can find her alright

women are more likely to end up like this than men

men are willing to compromise on a ton

women used to, a lot less common now
