Mike may have cut out . . . .she wanted to get married when she was about 24 y/o in 2002.
this wasn't a shock to TA -they discussed marriage before - never engaged.
they talked about it.
did he ever tell you he wanted to marry you?
he didn't say it in that way - said she would be a good person to marry but he wasn't ready.
we were in love w/each other, liked each other, time together went by quickly - didn't feel pressure to get married ... eventually she felt like wanting to be married.
it was not overnight . . .. realized how much time had gone by that they dated - didn't see it going that direction - he was not ready @ that point.
that was enough fo you to say I am not hanging out anymore for you to get ready - right?
