Illusion About Marriage

It's a true story. I know a person, not a friend, just an

acquaintance. While we mee t, probably a few years ago,

he told me that he was not married. I said, "Why not?"

He said, "Well, I have not had the time yet."

Yeah, very busy and all that.

So I said, "Okay, so when is the time then you will marry?"

He said, "Yes, of course, I like very much to get married

and I've some person already that I want to marry."

I asked him, "What is the reason you want to get married?"

He told me, "Well, it's a very sad life to be a bachelor."

For example, when he has a glass of juice or drinks something

in the morning, then hurries to go to work and puts the

glass on the table without cleaning or putting it away,

after he has worked all day long, he comes back in the

evening , the glass is still there. No one moved it away

or tidied up for him. So he feels like it's pretty untidy,

cold and unwelcoming. He would like to get married.

It would be better.

After some time, I heard that he was married.

I said, "Oh, good! Congratulations! Ah, now you are married."

He said, "Yes."

I said, "Well, I wish you all the best luck in the world.

I still remember the story you told me about the empty

glass on the table which you put in the morning after

breakfast and it still stayed there until after you got

back from work in the evening. So what happened

now to the glass story? Did it change?"

He said, "Oh, yes, it changed. There are two glasses

on the table when I come back."

He said, "Oh, yes, it changed. There are two glasses

on the table when I come back"

Really , it changed.ha...ha...
