Translation: Go out and purchase permanent-press shirts. They don't require ironing. Therefore, your mate will be thrilled not to have to iron those blasted shirts, and your washing-machine-cycling-days shall remain forever harmonious.
I am 50 and have never married. I came close twice, but life took me in opposite directions at those moments. No regrets...wouldn't have a "do over" on much of anything. As you can see by my age, I haven't rushed into anything in relationship, and take my time in getting to know a person. I have been so incredibly fortunate to have had some wonderful men in my life.
Having said that, I still wear rose colored glasses when it comes to romance and love and the idea of marriage. I have faith that there is someone out there searching for me as well. I would very much enjoy the commitment that marriage brings, the partnership, growing old together, experiencing the 2nd part of our lives together....

Sooo many responses to this...so little time. I shall leave it at that.
