Perhaps its my age, perhaps it''s my view on life, perhaps truth is stranger than fiction, and it it at least part of this memory bobbing arround my head this week:
Years ago the question a lot of gals would ask a guy before getting serious: If you get me pregnant will you marry me... Of course many guys did not give a totally truthful answer to that - and at lest some gals accepted a guy who said "no."
So imagine this real life experience:
Gal: If you get me pregnant will you marry me.
Myself initially: No - I don''t know you well enough.
Myself year + latter (same gal - and no we hadn''t) -and when we were cuddling and she ask the same question: Yes because I now know that we can live together and raise a child.
But I then asked her... And if I get you pregnant will you marry me...
To which she answered: No. You''re a great person but I wouln''t marry you if you got me pregnant.
Lets just say that the relationship went downhill after that...
Just currious what others think of the question (and I know that the younger generation will probably have much different views than my generation).
