She Must Never Become Your Mission
I happened
upon an article entitled “An
Open Letter To My Future Wife: How I Plan To Make You Happy Every Day
Of Your Life” earlier today, written without a doubt very sincerely
to the author’s imagined future wife – here’s a short excerpt:
“I promise to do my best to make you beam daily, so count on many surprises. Your smile will be my priority. I get weak knees when anybody smiles, so just imagine the effort I will make to be the source of yours.
I promise I will always look at you with the same adoration as I did the moment I realized I loved you.
I promise to try to ignite the same sparkle in your eyes I see when you’re surprised, inspired, motivated or when you are about to lean in to kiss me.
I promise to hold your hand when we’re 80 years old with the same liveliness that I did when I crossed that line to hold yours for the first time. I vow never to let the excitement of dating me die down; I will surprise you with the location, the reason or the activity itself.
I promise to keep you guessing where we’re going next. I promise to do my best always to interest you. I will keep reinventing myself, gaining new hobbies, new knowledge and new interests to keep you — and myself — entertained.”
... and it goes on like this for quite a bit.
At the bottom of the article are plenty of Facebook comments from girls praising (sort of) the article, of course, saying things like:



There’s even a female commenter saying (jokingly) “Marry me!”
But of course, no one’s actually lining up to marry this guy... despite all he’s promised.




I was sitting in a cafeteria having a quick bite to eat
the other
day when I saw an elegantly dressed young woman in a long but casual
summer dress stroll in at the far side of the cafeteria, turn about
slowly and elegantly as she assessed her surroundings – perhaps looking
for someone, or perhaps just deciding if there was anywhere here she
wanted something to eat from – before at last turning and walking back
out the door she’d come through again, still with great elegance.
We’ve all asked the question “How can I make the most of
my looks?”,
and today I’m going to tell you a bit about how you can do that without
adjusting your fashion sense or wardrobe.
Remember
that girl you dated in high school? You know, that really
cute one with the seductive laugh who hemmed you all up and then
started acting like a complete loony bird?
