Marriage Pressure

Man, marriage pressure. Some of you guys may know what Im talkin' about, but some of you might not. I've been with my girl Leah for a year and 5 months now and a couple of times she has hinted at marriage. She's tricky tho. She'll catch you off guard with her subtle little hints...

Tonight we were watching American Wedding and in one of the scenes the character who stuck his dick in a pie in American Pie was talking with his future wife. The future wife asks the pie porker "How did you know I was the one?" He answers and as soon as that scene is over, Leah turns to me to ask:

"Am I the one?"

Oh I dont know Neo, you might be.....How do you respond to that? I stumbled around that and finally got out "Sure, you might be the one....you're the right type for being the one......" and that answer got me a silent "dont touch me" treatment. Fucking great.

What the fuck?!?! Pisses me off. Yes, she may be the one, but who wants loaded questions like that when considering a mate for life long partnership. As of right now, Im 25 years and 16 days old. With the way the average life span is increasing, I probably have another 75 years to go. I was planning on getting married around 30-33 and having kids around 35-37 and that leaves me 63 years left to spend with my wife and kids. When considering a 63 year long commitment, I think it would be wise to spend at least a couple of years evaluating the partner before fully committing yourself. Makes sense to me.

...anyway, Im just venting
