“On February 18, 2020, while sitting on the therapist’s couch, we shared our plans with her. At this point, we hadn’t spent more than two consecutive weeks together. She was worried about that and how that played into us making such a big decision. We both understood her concerns, but didn’t quite know how to address them before making a huge commitment. Did we really know each other enough to commit to making such a huge purchase together? Would we feel different about each other after spending a month together and break up before we even got engaged? Once we bought our home, were we stuck together, or could we change our minds? Would he now think that we were good and he no longer had to propose? These were all questions that I thought of after that visit to her office.”
