Of Love and Rules







About twenty years ago, I have read an article, which was about a 50 years old single man, in a magazine.
According to the article, that man had a master-degree. He was a handsome man and manager of a business company. Many girls have approached him as well.
So why was he being a single man till his 50? Did not he want to get marriage?
A pressman was curious about the manager with the above questions. He found very interesting answers from the single man. The story was as below.
He had the rules about his love or spouse. He said that since he was in the college, he had exact and detail list of qualifies that his lover must have.
His girlfriend must have -
- Height – at least 5 ft and 2 inches
- Education – at least, finished high school
- Neatness and cleanness
- Love to have children
- Love to saving money / income
- No smoke
- No drink, and so on.

Then, the pressperson asked him if he has found the dreamed partner or not. He said that he did found few girls who had exact qualities those he needed. So how was going on? Did not he approach those girls? He did approach them, too. So, what? Unfortunately and coincidently, those girls also had their own rules about the guy who will be their boyfriends, and their rules did not fit with him. He was rejected.

What a pity! I have a couple of questions here on this story. Do you think we should have that much exact principles and needs for our lovers? Do you think the manager’s love will be true love from heart or facts from his head? I guess - probably, through his work experience that to interview the new applicants for company; he set those principles up for his lover, too.

Any way, how about you, my reader? Are you a single?
Do you also have your own fixed rules for your partner?
Did you find someone who fit with your needs? Good Luck!
