For better or worse
Just had yet another colleague come thru with the news of a looming marriage. He popped the question last night and is now engaged. He is the 2nd guy to find love out here since touching down a year ago. I remember that he was a real ladies man even before coming here. And once here, especially with the seriously increased earning power it was literally a different woman every night. But since meeting her he really has calmed down and does seem to sticking to just the 1. Really hope he finds the happiness he has been looking for. And he does genuinely seem happy when hes with her. More than I can believe of the other couple out here.
The other couple is a lil less than fairy tale like. For a start she has made him get rid of his passion of bike racing. I remember the guy being bike crazy! He even held the fastest time during several track days at the F1 circuit. So fast he even got spotted and given an invitation to run in an official race! This guy lived and breathed riding. But now hes dumped it all, even sold his bike! A bike of only 6mths! All because she deems it too dangerous for a married man to continue to do. Ok I totally get the concern for the well being of a loved one but for that concern to cause you to take away that persons very passion?
Biking and racing was something that I always associated with him. And to now think that that part of what made him, HIM is now being forcibly taken away. Its just not right. Marriage should be about accepting someone as they are and embracing it. If its just gonna be about changing them than you aren't really getting into it with the right person. And i believe in their case it does show. As he was a firey guy, easy to explode, but none the less a genuinely nice guy, who knew how to take a joke and how to have a laugh. But in the last 2months or so he's totally changed. He has now made enemies of virtually everyone he has worked with and is on, not speaking terms, with all of them. Just makes me wonder if that has anything to do with his private life.
If it does, then I really hope he doesn't go ahead with it all. Cos it's not going to last.
