  • I would like to point out something I experienced --

    When I was on CatholicMatch, I chatted up several young ladies, most of whom ignored me of course. But several that DID talk with me seemed to be so engrossed in college I found myself wondering why they signed up for the site in the first place! It *is* called Catholic MATCH after all.

    It's easy to get on a career "track" -- especially finishing a 4-year degree -- and pass up all kinds of good things that might be placed in your way. You might have tunnel vision about achieving your goals -- but is it God's will? Can a person TRULY complain that God hasn't sent someone, when He might have sent SEVERAL eligible bachelors her way, but she was too busy to give them the time of day?

    Yes, it all worked out for me (I found the right one for me), but it doesn't change the fact that I met *several* women who had little time for looking around, discerning God's will, smelling the roses, etc as they pursued a college education. College takes a certain dedication and effort. It's also not something you "quit" easily.
