I just want to say this, he said, before we walk back to our cars. I know who you could be with. Someone rich, someone fancy, some guy your sister finds for you. But I know who you should be with. You should be with a guy who doesnt mind that youre smarter than he is, who doesnt mind that most of the time, youll be the main event. You need to be with a guy who supports how hard you work and wholl bring you a cup of coffee late at night. I dont know if I can be that guy, he said, tears in his eyes, but Id like a shot. We married.
