Okay so then what happens...

So today at work someone asked me the question that I get a lot lately, "so when are you going to get married", usually I just laugh and say something about how they can pay for a wedding or a house but today I was a tad stressed so I just said "I don't know". You would think that I just said something like I have a terminal disease and am close to death. The look on her face is one I am now used to...the sad face that says "you poor, poor pathetic girl...there must be something wrong with you that he doesn't want to marry you". (Sigh) She patted me on the shoulder and assured me that something would happen soon and since I have invested so much into this relationship I can't walk away now. So I am supposed to think of Mike as a stock portfolio.
