Arisa S. Field The Five Fingers theory is what taught me what is essential to a good marriage. It does not teach that everyone needs to be perfect---to the contrary, it teaches that all people have flaws and that is normal. The question is whether you are willing to accept and live happily with the flaws of the one you are considering spending the rest of your life with. These are five things that no man/woman should look past when considering marriage. Azalea S. Klein It was hard growing up without ever having a boyfriend until I was 23.

I am also grateful that while my husband is not perfect, I did get all five fingers... even the pinkie!. Stacey S. Carruth
