Ten Evaluation Criteria For Successfully Selecting A Life Partner

The author is fully qualified to expound verbosely on this subject.  She conducted extensive research using the methodology and protocols established for the  smart women who make bad choices in men Graduate Program of Matrimonial Disaster. This program includes testing marriage with one or more unsuitable partners who fail to adhere to one or more of the established protocols.

The author also traveled half way around the world to find a spouse who meets all the criteria AND participated in a civil ceremony performed by a duly elected United States territorial official followed in less than ninety days by a religious rite officiated by one male and one female ordained minister in a state of the United States.  Finally, the author received full endorsement from the final approval authority, the then seven-year-old daughter who also performed the duties of  Maid-of-Honor.
