“Will you live for her though?” Khadeen asked. “And I don’t mean breathe. I don’t mean obsess over. I don’t mean possess because the way you describe her sounds like she’s an object. I mean really live for her. Will you explore the complexity of your manhood for her? Will you let her see you weak? Afraid? Strong? Insecure? Focused? Distracted? Emotional? Will you show her your triumphs and losses? Your pain? Will you let her live a life with you? Because a full life involves many weak moments. Will you share those with her?”
