Wow, that's a really interesting story. You know, my H and I don't have the perfect relationship (well, we do beyond the sex stuff), but I can't really imagine a day w/out him. Besides sex, we get along great. We have our differences of taste, such as his humor is different than my humor, but at the end of the day, I can come home, vent to him (he to me) and we can relax together and enjoy each other's company. So, I almost agree with the article - somewhat. Women can't expect perfection. I knew my H had problems w/ having a LD, but I married him anyways. Why? Because I enjoy his company, he "gets" me, we enjoy a lot of the same things, we're great teammates, and he's an amazing husband and father (although I didn't know the father thing until after we had our son). But some women might not have married him b/c he has a LD. I, on the other hand, did marry him and I haven't really regretted it at all!! So, I might have settled, although I didn't realize it at the time. But I'm sure glad I did! Plus, our relationship is different now then when we were younger, we grew together. It's BETTER!!!

On another note, kudos to single mothers. I couldn't do it. That's gotta be tough dealing w/ all of that completely on her own. No father, just a donor. OUCH!
