This article is hateful and crazy. Which is a shame, as buried deep within it are so good points regarding not dating people based on their resumes and the importance of partnership and not just passion.

But it's entirely hateful.

I admit, I didn't read through the entire article, but rather skipped through lines - and it didn't really matter as each line was the same and sad.

I will turn 40 this summer, with no prospect of marriage in sight, and that is on purpose.

In my latter years of high school, I had a plan: four years of college, marriage to immediately follow, and children right behind. As I moved through those years and on, I found myself going forward, but not accoring to my 'plan'. I have come to understand, It is just not innate in me, and I am very content with that.

The woman who wrote this is a very sad individual and should be addressing that with herself, but is instead going through the motions of foolish assumptions.
