Daddy dilemma

My fiancee is 70 percent against kids. The clock is ticking, and it's up to me to convince her to do something I'm not sure about either.

    Waiting to engage

    Another little reality check: a guy who waits EIGHT YEARS to decide you are worth marrying is already revealed himself as very, very ambivalent. It doesn't take an adult eight years to decide if you are "the one" or not.

    1) "Waiting" for 8+ years is fairly common in other countries. Not in the trigger-happy US, for sure.

    2) Maybe it was Piper who also wanted to decide. It's pretty silly to assume that all women want to marry as soon as possible/feasable and that all will say "yes" when you ask them.

    —LeCastor
