A 107-year-old woman in China is looking for a husband. Wang Guiying has never been married and says she is seeking a man who is at least 100, so they will have things to talk about. Whatever, gold-digger.
Of course, if the Chinese government authenticates her age at 107, it means she is really like 102.
A farmer until the age of 74, she has now been retired for 33 years. So she may finally be ready to settle down.
Wang hopes to find someone whose hobbies and interests match her own, such as breathing and having a pulse.
If Wang marries now, it will surely be because she wants to. She doesn’t have to bow to peer pressure to wed once all her peers died.
Hopefully her age won’t mark the wedding as unusual. What will be unusual is her 87 year old flower girl.
The advantage of marrying at her age is that, on her wedding day, she will only need something new, something borrowed, and something blue.
Asked why she didn’t ever marry up until now, Wang explained that she wanted to wait until she paid off her student loans.
Local officials have told the would-be bride that they will help her find her 100-year-old groom. They already have a short list that is bound to get shorter day by day.
With her parents not alive to give her away at the wedding, tradition says she should ask whoever is closest to her. So she asked the Grim Reaper.
