Technically, my left arm belongs to him, but he’d never hold me to that. He’s still far too romantic to marry someone who doesn’t actually want to marry him. “It’s what makes sense.” But I don’t see love that way anymore. I don’t believe we need to follow a certain set of steps. Dating, living together, marriage. I’m happy exploring the wide world of non-matrimonial partnership. If I stay in the dating app business, marriage is the smart career move. It says I believe in the mission.

And I do. I believe in our new message: trust the science and trust yourself.

That’s what I do now. I trust the logic and I try to listen to my instincts. They say yes. One day, I want to marry River. But not today. Not yet.

For the first time in my life, I want to have fun with something. Not too much fun. A Deanna sort of amount. A few months. A year max.

Then, I’ll be ready.

It won’t be the image in my head or the one in his. It will be better, because it’s ours, because we built it together.

The love doesn’t end here…
