First thing first…Time to stop procrastinating.
Second. I appreciate your honestly and open communication. I have no solutions for your personal issues but I’m here for you when you need me.
Third. I had no idea you’re making six figures per year when we’re dating. Or that was after we broke up?
Fourth. Yes same old question, “can you afford me?” Well money can’t buy love. And you know it’s true love cuz obviously I didn’t fall in love with you for money. At this age (older & wiser I hope) I’ve seen failed marriages that were built on wealth. And I’ve dated rich guys who are either never wanna settle down (I bet he’s worried that he’ll have to give up half of his wealth if divorced) or short / bald / ill mannered. I don’t know anyone who can appreciate the simple pleasures in life as well as you do. And you seem to find the good in everyone, even in those extremely unpopular people.
You asked, “Why me?”
I say, “Why not.”
Among all my potential suitors you’re the closest to what I want in a man. And you mean it when you say you love me for me, for who I am and I feel it too. Most of them have issues with my lifestyle, my circle of friends (95% men), and the way I dress / talk / look. That ain’t true love. They are looking for a trophy to show off to their friends and family. And the rest of them are a bunch of puppies looking for someone to take care of them like their mommy did.
Deep down I’m old-school. I like how you always hold my hands when we’re together, whether we’re walking down the street, sitting down for dinner, watching a movie or making love. Men who are closer to my age are hardly romantic or passionate. You obviously grew up in a different time and that’s good cuz I appreciate all the values from your era. On the other hand we’re young at heart and our real age barely shows on the outside.
With that being said I just think that we should say I Do and the rest will follow. Like you always say, I have good karma. It takes guts to walk down the isle and for the first time in my life I’m warming up to the idea of marriage.
So, will you take me as the future Mrs. P?
