It sucks sometimes to see our friends and family rushing off and getting married. Whit and I have been together for four years. And no matter how much we want to run away and get hitched, we’ve decided to be adults and start our life together the ‘right’ way. Not to say, really, that there’s a wrong way and we’re right. But we want to have surrounding circumstances in our advantage. No surprise pregnancy. No long distance relationship. No cross-country move. No way-too-soon-to-get-married marriage. We’ve decided to avoid all of these and substitute good ol’ commitment. And I think that it’ll work out just fine 🙂
