How to Marry a Mensch

Marriage is another phase of life and a personal choice. It's not the only way to go, but if you want to walk down the aisle, you will want to choose someone who will truly stand the test of time--and that is a mensch.
Look on the Positive Side

No one wants to be with someone who sees the glass as half-empty. Challenges present themselves, and we all have our share of frustration and disappointment. Some people, it may seem, have more than others. But ultimately it's how you deal with setbacks and your outlook that count. Don't make yourself a victim. Be a positive thinker. Surround yourself with upbeat people--laughter is contagious! Sure, you're entitled to your down moments, and looking for love isn't always the easiest, I realize. But no goal worth achieving happens overnight. And, when you do succeed, it's all the sweeter. So keep your chin up--someone might be attracted to your smile.
