No big flashy declaration of love,
Just a simple, honest affair.
A proposal that is a reflection of who we are,
A marriage-skeptic is what i have been most of my life, since my parents had a bad breakup. One of my mum's first reactions was to taunt me about breaking my marriage-skepticism for this. It surprises me though, that the all-knowing woman thinks this. Does she not realize that i may say that i don't believe in marriage, often in defiance? Sometimes, as a retort towards her for having said hurtful things to me? And although there is still some fear and doubt towards men, i have found someone who makes me want to take that risk. I certainly do not want to be like my mother, who shuns doing things just because she is afraid of failure or rejection.. I guess I will live my life as it comes, and try to accept everything as a learning experience. So please mum, can i have your blessings and not just snide remarks?
What to do now? Most people i know feel that this is too soon - we have been dating for just 9 months and 8 days. But thing is, we meet up almost everyday of the week, which is alot more frequent than many other couples! And his sincerity and honesty is something that cannot be missed. One of the sad things is, i don't know why i feel the need to explain myself to everyone else. If only people did not judge! And how can i reject the sweetest guy on Earth? ;p
Bless us!!
