“When women take account of their lives and values to make a change, they should never be mocked or have fingers pointed at them.”

“You can buy a house, but you must figure out what your priorities are. If you are willing to make some sacrifices, like driving longer to work, it's entirely possible.”

“My husband was 28 when we met, and by the Internet's definition, he was chronically single. He never felt like any of the women he went on a date with were right for him - so he just kept looking.”

“When I ask my husband, for example, if he's talked to his childhood best friend recently, he always tells me yes and that they talk all day sending each other memes. But when I ask what his friend has been up to, how his wife is doing, if they got a new dog - anything - he can't tell me any details.”

“I started in musical theater.”

“Victims receive attention and social clout, so why not play the victim role? This has been going on for quite some time, and now, it's made its way to the pageant world.”

“I don't think setting people up is a bad move; in fact, it's one way to actually help singles - so long as the two people getting set up share commonalities and have potential to be a good match.”
