The Ideal Woman Doesn't Exist

 and neither does the ideal man. A good post by VD:

 One of the negative aspects of the digital world is the way in which it permits both men and women to dwell in an imaginary environment in which the opposite sex partners they rate are absolutely unattainable in real life. Just as Tinder and other social media permits women to attract attention from men who will never, ever, consider them as potential girlfriend or wife material, games and movies permit men to indulge themselves in fantasy relationships with the kind of women who would not even notice them in real life.

  2. They aren't really choosing a spouse nowadays. They choose someone to hook up with. And then sometimes they drift into marriage, sometimes not. And if they do, they suddenly discover that their spouse is crazy and start blaming everyone around them but themselves.
