Well my dad says that I am the luckiest man alive and when she asks I would be a fool to say “no”. Truthfully she has not changed since day 1, she is as advertised. Next Friday I am going out to dinner with her mom, sister, and son then will meet her xh at her sons birthday party on Saturday. She still has not met my mom, who is the real gate keeper, so that probably won’t happen until Xmas. The point is that I have some time.

I am not opposed to getting married I just would like some more time alone, by myself, to enjoy the dating process that is all. The excitement of picking her up, not seeing her for a few days, etc. there is something to be said for that.

If she asked me today I would say no and explain my reasons but let her know that I love her, still want to date, be with her, etc. I don’t want to be with anyone else but I am also not ready. I think about my girls, them adjusting, new house, a little brother, all of what goes into blending a family and it just hasn’t been enough time yet for me. The house we live in they were both born in and we have known all of our neighbors for years. We are starting to get more entrenched in each other’s lives but we are not quite their yet.
