Fred is 32 years old and he is still single.
One day a friend asked "Why aren't you married? Can't you find a woman who will be a good wife?"
Fred 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 thinks for a moment and says "I've got the perfect solution, just find a girl who's just like your mother".
A few months later they meet again and his friend says "Did you find the perfect girl? Did your mother like her?"
With a frown on his face, Fred answers "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?"
