Being in a relationship is one thing; getting married is a whole other pill to shallow. You have people who are happy for you. Those who can’t stand you or your future spouse. And those who smile in your face, but all the time they want to take your place. This is my dilemma at [...]

Oh no, things don’t stop there. These 3 ladies have the same name as one of my past loves. And wouldn’t you guess it, [...]
