Let’s fall in love –

In our mid thirties

It’s not only

Where the hurt is.

…

We’ll make the whole thing

Hard and bright

We’ll call it love –

We may be right.

‘The Proposal’, Tom Vaughan

Great minds think alike.

On reflection, Alex thinks we should save for longer too. He thinks we should spend the money we have saved so far on something else.

On getting married.

They say there comes a point in your life when you know you’ve met the person you want to spend the rest of your life with.

By the same rule, I can now confirm there comes a point when you know for sure you haven’t.

And when your boyfriend is knelt in front of you holding out a sparkling platinum and diamond engagement ring and asking you to marry him is not, you might say, the ideal moment for it to happen.

Alex is not Mr Right.

Why?

I don’t know.

I just know.
