Courtship.

So today, I tried to make a bride and groom out of paper. I started with the groom. Folding away, it eventually came to be. (It looked like it should.) Then, I tried to make the bride, but couldn't. I folded, made creases, but it ripped. I tried again, with another sheet of paper. I folded, made creases, but the more I did, the harder each next step became. I eventually gave up, I was too frustrated. I could only make a groom, but I couldn't make a wife.
