I am surprised that so many people asked if you were pregnant. You may remember that I was not one of them!.Pregnancy is certainly not the dominant reason for mariage as it was some years ago when there was a stigma if you were an unmarried mother. On the contrary I know of some girls who have become pregnant while in a relationship and waited two or three years before getting married and then had the child in the wedding party. I think most women like the security of marriage. My friend Jan, who is 57 got married last year after living with Alan for 20 years, she was so excited when he proposed, she had a lovely engagement ring and a tradional wedding. Alan said he should have thought about it years ago. At least no-one asked if she was pregnant!!! Comment from your grandmother. I am surprised that so many people asked if you were pregnant.
