Marriage Dilemma: OH NO NOT FLOW CHARTS
So, I kept thinking about last night's post. It split almost exactly down gender lines; a large majority (but not all) women said they would like to marry their best friend, and in fact some went so far as to be shocked and surprised I would even ask. The few men who replied were not so excited about marrying their best friends or saw it as settling. I decided to go a little further in the most nerdy way possible. BEHOLD the flow chart in its nerdy glory! (Click to expand). Opinions? Hatred? Compliments?

Only you would ever make a flow chart about this.
@AmeSoeur - I'm returning to my nerd roots. I can't hide my nerdiness anymore! (Steps out of nerd closet, dons white lab coat, tosses pocket protectors and protractors into the crowd). :-p
Following flow chart leads to same answer I gave - which apparently is different from most women. Shrug. Like that's shocking at this point.
huh. I'm strongly in favor of traditional gender roles, and men and women having distinct differences. I really don't see how that has much to do with the original question at all.
Flow charts!!!!
@spokenfor - I'm with you here. You could still be your partner's best friend and have a traditional "you are woman, I am man, pound chest" thing going on.
John, I think you are equating marrying a "best friend" with someone you would never in a million years want to be physical with originally, and then suddenly realizing you're single and "settling" for said best friend. I think that's very specific and generalized. I think many people start dating a significant other and then the person becomes their best friend, so they have both friendship and physical attraction, too.
I... just can't believe you made a flow chart. I don't know whether to be flummoxed or impressed. It's... different.
Flowcharts... yay. I must be a nerd to get excited by this.
I love flow charts!
High five!
Flow charts make everything win at everything forever.
Excellent!
@AmeSoeur - Wrong lol I did
DUDE! I made a flow chart too lol. I thought I was the only one. Rock on. Mine is more personalized though.
Haha cute...
hehe! this is great! I'm surprised and happy to discover you are writing again as well.
Looking forward to more, and now I have back stuff to go read!
That's it. I'm marrying my best friend. No, I'm serious. Although we're just 18, we're both in love and I really want this relationship to turn into marriage.
