Respectfully, no, I don’t want to sit on your right hand side under the altar’s flowered arches as you face his flawless face with that knife sharp jawline and say “I do” to the one that chose your Jolene-like auburn locks over my unfashionable pixie cut and your sparkling hazel eyes over my mouse brown irises and your perfectly flat abdomen over my stubborn rolls of adolescent fat and your razor-sharp wit over my dull, rusting blade humor but you are my best and oldest friend and I can’t say no to you so instead I say that I’d be honored.
Respectfully, No
