"Girls marry their fathers, and boys marry their mothers"

It IS sort of an awkward expression, isn't it? Anyway, I think it holds true in a lot of relationships. If you're lucky enough to be friends with both parties of a couple, and know their parents, you can sort of see that the boyfriend acts like the girl's dad, meanwhile, the girlfriend acts like the boy's mom. I think it makes sense, since people are most likely to be inclined to date the type of person that they grew up with. While this is a natural instinct, it displays something unfortunate about American society. It shows that American society does not adapt well to change. If American society were able to adapt to change, people would experiment and date people outside of their comfort zone, perhaps getting a better feel for who they would actually want to marry. Unfortunately, this is not the case in America, as most people date, and therefore, marry, within their comfort zone, causing a lack of uniqueness in America. I think that people should really date out of their comfort zone, so all of the daddy's girls, give the bad boys a chance every once in a while!
