At just 25 years old, Lauren understands a foundational principle underlying romantic/sexual, male-female relationships. Having met 30-yr-old Blake at a time when she was going to be moving to a distant city, Lauren presented herself as being completely okay with a casual, for-the-moment, non-relationship. Fast-forward a few months and now, no longer moving (and having real feelings for Blake), Lauren wants to know how she can help Blake to see her as a woman to marry, and not one that is just-for-fun.
