It has everything to do with your attitude. I met my wife working at a bookstore. I was buying "Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television," and we started talking. She had a degree in English Lit, and she was interested in getting into technical writing. I invited her over to talk about it and one thing lead to another. The catch is . . . I KNEW that I was interested in a serious relationship, and that means marrige, kids the whole bit. We are stalling on the kids (money, you know), but I have to respect her desire to have kids. If a woman has no children and she is in her late 20's, she realizes that she has to have kids soon or their might be more complications and eventually no possiblity. That might not bother some women, but others find that it is an important decision. Once I accepted the idea that some women I would meet wanted to get married and have children, and the consequences that would have in my life if I were to be the lucky guy, suddenly, it got real easy to meet women.
