The night I announced I was getting married, Daddy paced for hours on the porch.

All I can say is that I'm getting married in the future. I've narrowed it down to that.

When I was a young lady, I never fantasized about getting married.

As for getting married, I don't have strong feelings, really - I can take or leave it.

I haven't done the milestoney things - getting married, buying a house, having children.

The 'institution of marriage' is being threatened - by people getting married? Huh?
