I’m not ready for marriage, but I’m doing it anyway – a man’s perspective.
Last week I proposed to my girlfriend and, amazingly enough, she said yes. If you knew me, you would know that is nothing short of a miracle. As I began to share the news with family and friends, a trend developed among my male cohorts. Their response took some form or another of the sentence,…
