True Life: He Proposed…But I Said No
Shontai: My kids father asked me to marry him when I pregnant with our 1st child. I said no because the timing was off and I didn’t (and still don’t) want to be a “wife” (because that seems to be a license for disrespect in today’s society). We’re still together but sometimes I do regret not just doing it. Right now there is a strain on us and I think that because I turned him down once, he may never ask again. But I’m okay with that.
Krista: I was asked by the same man 4 times, I said no because I don’t believe in marriage. I’ve been with the same man for 18yrs, we have 3 beautiful daughters & I wouldn’t change it for anything. To chose to be with someone is commitment & dedication. I don’t need to have a piece of paper to tell me where my heart should be =)
