When I was a child, my grandfather, in-between drinking his home-made wine and complaining about groups of people he never interacted with, would tell me that I should find a wife, as early as possible. That he'd not be half the man he was if he didn't have my grandmother to support him through his life. That this was a world where you had to walk side by side with someone else. That I needed a wife, no question.
My grandmother, when she wasn't cleaning or cooking, simply told me that whatever I did, just don't become like my grandfather.
