How to spot the man that's ready to marry...

...and stand in his way so that you become the bride. The theory behind today's iVillage advice column is pretty simple. Women always want to get married but men only have the urge at a brief point in time, so the object is to find a man who is caught by the urge, get in his sights, and he'll marry you.

The Sex and the City gang once compared a marriage-ready man to a taxi: At a certain point in his life, he becomes ready for commitment. His "available" light goes on and the next lady in his life gets the ring. Luckily for us, it's easy to tell the difference between a man who's got the light on and one who's just driving around in the dark.

I prefer another metaphor, where men and women are both flowers. Women are a hearty flower that's constantly in bloom. Men are like a hibiscious, which blooms only for a few hours, and if you don't catch the bloom, you miss it. I cannot tell you the number of times I've come home and my boyfriend is saying, "Oh there was a hibiscious bloom today, but you missed it." With men it's like, "Well, he might want to marry next week, but you just got here too early."

Apparently the good news is that you don't have to worry about niceties like falling in love and whatnot. Just as the hibiscious blooms regardless of who is there to see it, a man in bloom will apparently marry whatever woman is standing there, regardless of compatibility. This is good news. In case you forgot.

Onto the Four Signs He's Fixing to Bloom, I mean, Get Married.

*His Oat-Sowing Days Are Over

Malloy interviewed men from ages 17 to 70 who were about to marry; all admitted they felt increasingly out of place in the bars, pool halls and dance clubs that were once their favorite hangouts.

So, your best bet is to hang out in these places waiting for a guy to say, "Man, this just isn't as fun as it used to be." Say something charming, like, "Running off to Vegas would be pretty exciting, don't you think?"

Rob F's epiphany came via a shocking realization. The 36-year-old recently married lawyer from New York recalls, "I started not wanting to bed models because I'd have to struggle through a conversation afterward."

I'll bet pillow talk with him is scintillating. "Well, you're no model, but you sure are smart, baby."
*He's Financially Independent

Whatever. There are plenty of broke guys out there looking to marry someone who will take care of them. This entire section is skirting dangerously close to telling women that they should have standards when deciding whether to marry someone.

Julia, a 27-year-old Philadelphia paralegal, says, "I had a definite type: ski bums and musicians who waited tables to make money...." Instead of seeking out a drummer with six-pack abs, she met an accountant. He may have lacked a hard body, but he did have a loving heart and a steady job and, most importantly, the urge to merge. They're planning a wedding.
I'm detecting a trend here. Are they implying that marriage is the last resort for ugly people?

*He's Discovered His Desire to Be a Dad

That is, he realized that he needs someone with a womb to further his life goals. This might explain the "any woman will do as long as the time is right" subtext here.

Carol Morgan, a Boca Raton matchmaker (www.carolmorgan.com), observes, "He's ready for marriage when he stares longingly at kids and suggests you would have beautiful children."

If he asks for a reference letter from your gyno, a marriage proposal is coming soon!

I'll spare you the heart-warming story of a man who dumped his girlfriend for a woman who was more willing to have children.

*He's Your Boyfriend in Name -- Your Husband in Spirit

Carol Morgan adds, "He's honest and open, and when you enter the room he doesn't immediately make his computer screen go black so you can't see what he's doing.

After the wedding, of course, he'll go right back to looking at porn on the internet.

And if he makes room for you in his closet, baby, your single days are numbered.

And if it's room enough to hide a body, your days may be numbered altogether. Or that would be my guess, but I read too much true crime.

Malloy says that the key finding in his book about men and marriage was this: "Seventy-three percent of the women coming out of marriage-license bureaus with their future husbands told us that they put pressure on their man to get a proposal. In most cases, this pressure didn't involve an attempt to manipulate their man into marrying them but was simply a result of telling their man what they were feeling."

Let me get this straight. A woman asks a man if he wants to get married, but he still does the "proposing"? As long as there wasn't any manipulation, I guess.

And now for four signs you need to dump him rightaway, because he's not marriage-minded.

*Says he has no interest in tying the knot.

Throw him back and try again when he's in bloom, I guess. To mangle my metaphors.

*Buys a Porsche.
Or other high-end items that no man saving up for a ring or a future would purchase.

Screw the stupid diamonds. This is a Porsche! Enjoy it.

*Calls his married friends "losers."

What if they are losers?

*Continually makes you cry.
And they're not tears of happiness. If he's unreliable, abusive, a liar, cheat and/or uber-flirt, divorce yourself from this relationship before it takes a trip to court to do so.

Once again, skirting dangerously close to suggesting that a woman should have more standards than just willingness to marry.

This sounds like it was ripped off The Girlfriend Test (a book my roommate owns). Especially the bit about you have to want to be a daddy in order to commit. Blech.

Twisted. And sad. But unsurprising. I loved that "sruvey" on her website. "Question 5: I have learned through many more heartaches that the worst thing a man can presently have is..." and not one mention of abusive parents, chauvinist attitudes or back hair. My God, how incomplete!

The most important thing about a fruit basket is indeed the fruit itself. When looking for what fruits to add to a fruit basket, consider these popular options This hearty fruit is a fruit basket favorite. Most everyone loves an apple, so you do not have to worry about less adventurous tastes avoiding the goodies. Also, apples tend to travel or ship well and have a long shelf life, so you do not have to worry about the fruit in your basket arriving spoiled or crushed.

oregon real estate Discover The 4 Step Secret To Becoming A Master Real Estate Professional
As a Real Estate Professional, ask yourself this question. . .what do you like best about your career. . .is it:

The "roller coaster" income cycles?
Wasting your weekend sitting at an open house where no one shows up?

Chances are none of the above are the reason you became a Realtor in the first place.

Well, that's about to change. Learn how countless numbers of realtors are working less and making more.

In most East Asian, South Asian and many Southeast Asian cultures, the wearing of white is symbolic of death. In these societies, white or off-white robes are traditionally worn to symbolize that someone has died and can be seen worn among relatives of the deceased during a funeral ceremony. In Chinese culture, red is strictly forbidden as it is a traditionally symbolic color of happiness. Exceptions are sometimes made if the deceased has reached a high age, particularly between their mid-80s to age 100. In which case, the funeral is considered a celebration, where wearing white with some red is acceptable. Contemporary Western influence however has meant that dark-colored or black attire is now often also acceptable for mourners to wear (particularly for those outside the family). In such cases, mourners wearing dark colors at times may also wear a white or off-white armband or white robe.

A traditional Chinese gift to the attendees upon entering is a white (and sometimes red) envelope, usually enclosing a small sum of money (in odd numbers, usually one dollar), a sweet, red thread, and a handkerchief, each with symbolic meaning. Chinese custom also dictates that the said sum of money should not be brought home. The sweet should be consumed the day of and anything given during the funeral must not be brought home. The exception is the red thread, which is tied to the front doorknob of the guest's house to ward off bad luck. The repetition of 3 is common where people at the funeral may brush their hair three times or spit three times before leaving the funeral to ward off bad luck. This custom is also found in other East Asian and Southeast Asian cultures.

Most Japanese funerals are conducted with Buddhist rites. Many feature a ritual that bestows a new name on the deceased; funerary names typically use obsolete or archaic kanji and words, to avoid the likelihood of the name being used in ordinary speech or writing. The new names are typically chosen by a Buddhist priest, after consulting the family of the deceased. Most Japanese are cremated. http://www.SanJoseFuneralservice.com 408-621-1271

I have been surfing online more than three hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.

It is pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all site
owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the net will be
a lot more useful than ever before.
