Finding the right person can be quite a journey. Most times it is not just about compatibility with one individual but often involves navigating the complexities of relationships with family members and other external factors.
Thomas, a man in his thirties, was still single. One day, as he got engaged into a conversation with one of his friends, the friends asked him, ”Why aren’t you married? Can’t you find a woman who will be a good wife?”
Tomas was quick to answer. “Actually, I’ve found many women I wanted to marry, but when I bring them home to meet my parents, my mother doesn’t like them.”
The friend thought about it for a while and then exclaimed, “I’ve got the perfect solution, just find a girl who’s just like your mother.”
A couple of months passed by and Thomas and his friend met again. The friend was eager to learn if Thomas found someone and asked him, “Did you find the perfect girl? Did your mother like her?”
With a frown on his face, Thomas replied, “Yes, I found the perfect girl. She was just like my mother. You were right, my mother liked her very much.” The friend asked, “Then what’s the problem?” to what Thomas replied, “My father doesn’t like her.”
