She said "no" ?? !! ??

[Wiley999]

at a fancy restaurant in my pressed suit and tie .... champagne bucket on the side of the table... i pour glasses for me and my date looking stunning .. then you see me get down on 1 knee in front of everyone to ask her to marry me ... she gasps putting her hand over her well shaped breasts ... manicured nails and hair falling down over her shoulders .. she looks around and then down at the ring in the velvet box .. and takes her hand away and says no .... she cries a little and leaves the restaurant leaving me alone on my knee heart broken and vulnerable .. you see the ring on the table a very big ring indeed

The idea of getting married again suddenly made a sharp U turn. It feels like I was about to plunge into another mistake. The same kind of mistake I've been through.

The fancy restaurant, champagne and the very big ring didn't help this time. I understand that this abrupt change of my mind is reprehensible. I still love you and would still be your friend and lover but just don't want to be married again. I want to be free spiritually and sexually.

Do you *need* to be married?
