re: "I think they are too young for marriage. They are still figuring out what they REALLY want (especially Jacklyn). They've set up an interesting dynamic. I'd really like to see Michael show a little anger. haha. Jacklyn seems a bit whiney. I'm not one of those super pretty girls so I did develop other atttributes. I do know there are lots of women out there who are very shallow and focus nearly everything on their image. So much so, that they really struggle to find their own voice and not manipulate others by their beauty.
Perhaps Michael should listen to that song.."If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life, don't make a pretty woman your wife,"
----------
that's kind of shallow or at least judgemental in the opposite direction, don't you think? imo anyway. maybe you meant it as hyperbole, but the implication that "pretty" girls can't have brains/decent personality/anything else going for them...not a fair or realistic assessment.
i definitely agree though that they are too young and not ready for marriage!

I think that Jacylyn's age really has alot to do with her behavior and crying. I remember when I was first dating my husband and at the beginning of our marriage I cried alot more than I do now. You just don't see things as rationally in your early twenties as you do later in life.

My perception of that song is not that they don't have brains, but that they will be looked at, flirted with, and the temptation to cheat or stray is there. Don't know the intention of the poster. |

sorry, i can't say i'm familiar w/the song, i was just thinking more along the lines of how the poster said she wasn't a super-pretty girl so was able to develop other attributes...you're right though, i could be taking it completely out of context.

 When I thought of the song, I wasn't thinking of the flirting, I was thinking of the kind of woman most men *really* want (and would go for) if they weren't worried about looks.
Jacklyn describes herself to be pretty on the outside but with nothing inside. Michael *seems* to really want something on the inside, yet he chooses a woman that is totally not at that place. But, I think Michael is realizing that he has his own work to do.
It reminds me of my single days. I'd have lots of guys tell me they'd married the "barbie", if you will, thinking they'd got a "prize" only to find out their marriage was a living h*ll. I'm certainely not stereotyping all women.  Just playing off Jacklyn's and Iyanla's conclusions in this particular situation. |
