Harold was in his mid thirties and still single. One day a friend asked, “Why aren’t you married? Can’t you find a woman who will be a good wife?”
Harold replied, “Actually, I’ve found many women I wanted to marry, but when I bring them home to meet my parents, my mother doesn’t like them.”
His friend thought for a moment and said, “I’ve got the perfect solution, just find a girl who’s just like your mother.”
A few months later they met again and his friend asked, “Did you find the perfect girl? Did your mother like her?”
With a frown on his face, Harold answered, “Yes, I found the perfect girl. She was just like my mother. You were right, my mother liked her very much.”
The friend said, “Then what’s the problem?”
Harold replied, “My father doesn’t like her.”
