Ten things to consider before even trying to find a serious girlfriend

Fast forward five or ten years on, and they are stuck with someone who has completely different interests, a totally different personality, wildly different goals and dreams, and traits and flaws that annoy them intensely. Someone they would never have chosen if they’d been a little more pragmatic and sensible about what they were getting into to begin with.
