My theory of the 3 boats (dating)

5 replies

I missed the first boat (meeting someone at school/uni/church/nightclub in my 20s.)

I'm waiting for the 2nd boat (people who get divorced in their 40s)

I hope not to have to wait for the 3rd boat - widowers. (Although incidentally I did once date a young widower - disaster!)

Do you agree with my boat theory?! (slightly lighthearted)

OMG, no, life is like the English channel or the Bosphorus, lots and lots and lots of boats, all the time.

But how to make sure you get a nice cruiseliner and not a dinghy with holes in it?!

I'd say you have a good look before you board. There are visual clues, I believe.
