I've always thought of marriage in a more practical sense as making the state a third party in our relationship. I'm a hopeless romantic eh? That engagement ring is coming with a pre-nup! Hey oh!
It's got to be something that is well established between two people and not just on a whim, and it's got to be with somebody that is perfectly comfortable with themselves and have done the best they can to iron out any insecurities in their lives. That works the same for me as well with the comfort and the insecurities.
It has to be with somebody you can be honest with and not afraid of the consequences, even over little issues.
Waking up next to a beautiful girl,
Step outside and say hello to my beautiful world.
