I once had a teacher who did not get married until much later in life when all her friends were already taking care of kids and stuff. when she got engaged she spoke to us and told us that it reminds her of a baby screaming for a bottle but the mother cannot give it to him yet- its just too hot! she said she likes to think about herself like that- her chosson was not ready and had to “cool” off a little before she can marry him! It happens to be that she married a baal teshuva so the story fit perfectly!
