A little advice from someone who knows that most advice goes unheeded, as I was there too. But anyway,
don't settle!!
I was about to, as I was tired of seeing all of the great gals hanging on the arms of men who treated them poorly. Anyway, used to complain about the women that I wasn't really into dating, and my carpooler, who was hot but
definitely not my type, nor I hers, used to cry about her boyfriend who was a real jerk.
One day something went 'ding!,' and we realized that the person that we were dreaming about was seated next to us every day. Some hard work, sacrifices, and a few scares came our way, but it all worked out - we've been married for ages, have three little ones and couldn't be happier.
Don't settle!
