This guy I know from high school came to visit a few years ago. He is now living abroad and just comes back to the country for brief visits. Whenever he would be visiting, he drops me a line to tell me he wants to see me and our other friends. I would organize a get together, normally a dinner, and that’s when we catch up on what’s been happening to each one of us.
He told us that he’s happy with the live-in arrangement he now has with his girlfriend. They’ve been together for quite sometime and he’s happy with her. He has a son from a previous relationship and he isn’t too keen on a new child or jumping into marriage. We told him that it’s fine and dandy with him but what about the girl? Wouldn’t it be fair for her to get a ring on her finger to make everything official? He said they are both happy with their arrangement.
But you know what? When one of our friends talked to the girl about marriage, she wants it. So bad for them! She is just respecting his decision and what they agreed on before she moved in to his place that’s why she isn’t insisting on making things official.
I do believe that every girl dreams of getting married to the one they love. Women are just polite and most of the time afraid to say anything that might ruin the status quo. I know they are still in a live-in arrangement. I just wish that the girl is still happy with their relationship.
