Pour one out for the girls out there in their mid-to-late twenties who've been dating a dude for 5+ years and are dying to get married and start a family, but haven't figured out that the reason why he hasn't locked her down yet is because he's simply not the decisive, mature, long-term-thinking man she desperately wants him to be...but now she's so emotionally attached to this false hope that she'll continue burning years of her prime sitting there waiting for him to become someone he isn't.

This evening walkthought is brought to you by the couple I met a while back who've been dating for 10 YEARS and still haven't tied it up - the girl now in her 30s and clearly falling apart inside as her biological clock now gives her no choice but to stay stuck with this weak dude who will never reach the maturity she desires, as since they've been dating since they were so young, he's never been through that life-shattering breakup many men NEED in order to conquer their inner weakness demons and grow into the most mature, masculine version of themself possible.
