Remember that "Settling for Mr. Good Enough" article? Well, Tobey Maguire just bought the movie rights.

    Jeez! Left out of this article completely is the problem that once you settle perhaps those nagging problems that really made you break up with the guy from your 30s are not just chronic bad breath or manners but that he wanted you to move to another country and give up your career, or just give up your career, or he never really took it all that seriously, or he had weird, upsetting problems, ones that made him single in this 30s (remember the Sex and the City where Miranda dates the guy who cannot have sex without porn on the set?). Fact is, there's usually a major reason why men are single and available (unless widowed) in their 30s, and not really a good reason for why women are other than garden-variety backlash.
