LOL, this is a funny post. While you do make a couple points Guru, honestly your post sounds a bit cynical, bitter even.

If you or the other posters responding, don't want to get married then good for you. What advice can you give those who do value marriage, considering your failure to get married with the perimeters you have put on possible spouses? Obviously you can only give a cold comfort to those who like you are sick of it. Which I understand, can even relate too. Basically the only sound advice you can give is that you shouldn't go putting finding a spouse before God. Which is good advice. :)
Failure to get married? :D

God's first command to man after don't eat the fruit from a certain tree was go forth and multiply. He then stipulates you must be married before that. Not in the same place, but you get the idea. So in a sense we are obligated to be married, or at least search for the person. If we don't find anyone then it is God's will that we not be married.
