I wonder how many of these marraiges are going to last.
How many of these are the guy saying, "I really want this woman" and how many are "oops, now ya gotta marry me."
Unfortunately for men these days, the "I have to do right by her" is less in the mental makeup.
What is more on their mind these days is "How long can I string her along and is her friend interesting at all?"
Of course, that may just be my local area.
And a father holding a shotgun is seldom seen.
More's the pity.
