One Sunday morning, Mihai asked me to go out into the garden.
Before I let him go, I mean something.
If your answer is no, then it remains no. I don’t want you to accept it because of ten years together or out of fear of losing me.
“I want to marry you because I’ve convinced myself that commitment is not a trap when you choose it freely. And that you were right: I can’t ask for all the advantages of a life together, keeping just for myself the comfort of an easy exit.
But before the wedding, we talked with specialists about heritage, property, savings and our obligations. We both learned that love and clarity are not enemies. Our dog was wearing a huge bow around his neck. When the civil status officer presented us with the documents for signatures, Mihai looked at me and smiled.
