English Original
Bob is almost 30 years old. While his friends have gotten married one after another, Bob just keeps dating.
Finally, a friend asked him, "What's the matter, Bob? Are you looking for a perfect woman? Are you that particular? Can't you find anyone who suits you?"
"No," Bob replied. "I've met many nice girls, but as soon as I brought them home to meet my parents, my mother didn't like them. So I kept on looking!"
"Listen," his friend suggested, "why don't you find a girl who's just like your dear mother?"
Several months later, Bob and his friend met again.
"So, Bob. Did you find the perfect girl yet? One just like your mother?"
Bob shrugged his shoulders. "Yes, I found one just like Mom. My mother loved her, and they became fast friends."
"So, are you and this girl engaged?"
"I'm afraid not. My father can't stand her!"

鲍勃快三十岁了。他的朋友们一个接一个都结婚了,而鲍勃却还在不停地约会。
终于,一个朋友忍不住问他:“鲍勃,你怎么回事?你是在找一个完美的女人吗?你就那么挑剔?连一个合适的人都找不到?”
“不是的,”鲍勃回答。“我遇到过很多好女孩,但只要我带她们回家见父母,我妈妈都不喜欢。所以我还在找!”
“听着,”他的朋友建议道,“你为什么不找一个像你亲爱的妈妈那样的女孩呢?”
几个月后,鲍勃和他的朋友又见面了。
“那么,鲍勃。你找到那个完美的女孩了吗?像你妈妈那样的?”
鲍勃耸了耸肩。“是的,我找到了一个像我妈的女孩。我妈妈很喜欢她,她们很快就成了朋友。”
“那你和这个女孩订婚了吗?”
“恐怕还没有。我爸爸受不了她!”
