I do?
If I were to live with somebody for the rest of my life, I do not want it to be somebody with whom I could not live with security. I do not want a man who'd make me feel so insecure that I would not have peace of mind, always thinking that he's having an affair. I do not want to come into a situation when I had to take my husband's atm allowance from him for I do not know where he spends it and it was just gone. I do not want to be checking on my husband's bank account nor his payslips and monitor everything he does just to make sure that he's not cheating on me. I do not want to cry all days of my life thinking that no one understands me. I do not want to live a life being cheated. I do not want to nag my husband everyday of his life. I do not want to look for more in him that he could not give me. I'd rather live alone than wish I have not married in the first place.
I do not want to grow old when my own family doubts me, as if I have no right to live a life of my own. I do not want to have a family limiting my expenditures. I do not want my children to think of me as if I have not been a good mom to them. I do not want to be left behind as my family grows in prosperity. I do not want to be away from my family and doubt my doings while I'm far away. I do not want to grow old feeling that I have not accomplished anything. I do not want my kids to be torn apart because my husband says I'm cheating on him. I do not want to die without my kids knowing that I did my best for them. I'd rather not marry than die without dignity.
When I say "I do", I do want to live with peace and satisfaction. I do want to live without doubts. I do want my man to know that I'm not just his wife, but a perfect wife, and my kids to know that I'm the best mom in the world. I do want my kids to say that when they grow up, they'd want to be like their mom or dad. I do want to grow old with my love and reminisce how fun life was with him and our kids. I do want to grow old with contentment, knowing that I did my best and that I have achieved my dreams. I do want to die with my love fulfilled and a legend with good thoughts.
>>> I do... It's no longer hard for me to say... "Yes, I do!" ;-D <<<
