"I Guess You'll Do Video" - A classic video for people in their twenties.

I came across the  "I guess you'll do" video and it got me thinking about my future as I'm a woman in my mid-to-late twenties.  Have a look at the video below and let me know what you think.

I find it funny because the video brings up questions that I have had in conversations with many people this year.  From experience, when you enter your mid-twenties, finding someone to spend your life with increases in importance.   It also makes you think about settling for someone as opposed to finding your soulmate.

The relationship between the two in the video lacks emotion and complexity.   The video to me makes life seem so simple and is unrealistic.  It always shows the pressure that is put on individuals in their twenties that this is the time they should be getting married.  What happens if you don't find that special person, are you simply supposed to settle for anyone just because it is "the time" to get married?

Thoughts?
