Now sober, you review her wife credentials

Photo:STANDARD

You are driving home drunk but your mind is consciously sober with the reality currently confronting you. It is an existential crisis... life changing, whichever way you look at it. You roll down the driver’s window, but you cannot stand the chilly wind that painfully sears through your shirt, making you more miserable.

Your boys have voted that you marry. When you are over 30 with a proper job, you drive a good car and live in a decent neighborhood, everyone and their dogs think a wife is the only thing you need to complete your life. Your mother and sisters will be happy of course that you are about to marry and better still you will be a father before the end of the year...Not so fast.
