“Why don’t you make an honest woman of her?” Whitley Louvier and her boyfriend of seven years, Brad, were enjoying his coworker’s wedding when the boss’s wife started giving Brad a hard time.
“I was so irritated! I’m honest now,” Louvier, 24, a psychology student living near Houston, Texas, says about the comment. “We already live together. She assumed that I was longing for him to propose.”
If anything, the opposite is true. Her boyfriend has tried to convince her to consider marriage and sometimes even introduces Louvier as his wife. But while Louvier has nothing but good things to say about her boyfriend, she isn’t in any hurry to get hitched. “I don’t even want to think about getting married until I’m 29 or 30. I want to have at least my master’s degree.”
