*I think I clapped for a comment that I didn't mean to and now I cannot undo it, but that's neither here nor there.

I'm not sure what all the pushback is on your article. You spoke your mind. Stated your opinion and even found out from the "horse's" mouth how men found their mates. This is news that a lot of women probably did not know and after reading your article, they probably do feel as if they need to know what category they are in now.

Especially with divorce rates just as high as marriage rates and the fact that men(and women) have exes in their past who could have potentially been THE ONE- it's scary.

Especially the part about the guy hooking up with an ex from four years back because NOW he feels ready to settle down?? That is super scary. What's wrong with women wanting to be loved fully and not as an afterthought? Or not used as a "come up" woman to groom a man for another woman?

This generation is so backwards I just can't stomach it. We use and treat people like they are snot on a sidewalk and practically tell them to just take it. Nope. Not me.

Rant over.

Nice article.
