She has a limited number of child-bearing years, you see. So she's hunting for him - now, during her 20's and maybe into her early 30's but not much longer than that. Generally speaking, of course. And for all you know - that 'random girl' you passed by may just have been the one for you. You will never know because you did not ask.

What you say makes a lot of sense, EEK. I'm just more inclined to work on my current relationships than throw caution to the wind like that, you know? On one hand, isn't learning how to deal with problems in relationships a good practice for marriage? I'm certainly not saying that people, especially my age, should settle in relationships that just over-all suck, but does that rationale make sense too?
